What does the Infrastructure As Service and Mainframe Modernisation Kit include?
The kit delivers a 60-plus file digital playbook comprised of PDFs and XLSX spreadsheets, organised into Platinum-Tier centrepieces, start-here guides, self-assessment diagnostics, requirement templates, framework matrices, execution playbooks, KPI dashboards, governance tools, continuous-improvement modules, advanced case studies and quick-reference cards. All files are emailed to you within 24 business hours of purchase.
Are you still managing legacy mainframes with ad-hoc cloud extensions, risking costly downtime, missed service-level targets and regulatory penalties? Without a proven roadmap you may face audit failures, lost contracts and a competitive edge that erodes as rivals adopt Infrastructure as Service (IaaS) at scale. The Infrastructure As Service and Mainframe Modernisation Kit eliminates that risk by giving you an instant, ready-to-use playbook that transforms legacy drag into a modern, flexible IaaS environment the moment you open the first file.
