Open Mainframe Project strives to eliminate barriers to open source on the mainframe through demonstrating the value of the mainframe on technical and business levels. As such, with this current climate, we want to assure you that open source and diverse collaboration are ways that help us stay connected to each other.

Join this roundtable Open Mainframe Project session to learn the latest approaches to integrating the mainframe into modern devops tooling and practices to accelerate delivery and drive true cross-platform applications. Open Mainframe Project leaders from IBM, the Linux Foundation, SUSE, and Vicom Infinity will share insight and roadmaps about several open source projects under the OMP umbrella that can help with your devops needs.
