Just curious, maybe some old timers could help me out. I am working with
a company that is migrating 20 years of Mainframe Software Development
to Unix, HPUX. How much harder would it be to go to Linux, Centos Linux?
Also, anyone have any experience with Fujitsu Cobol on Centos? The
Fujitsu people only support Red Hat, and said I'd be on my own with
Centos. In other words if it works, then I don't care about Fujitsu
support.
I know some of you are thinking, did someone say "COBOL"? Nobody uses
COBOL anymore! If so, let me say "You are wrong". Many large
corporations are taking their old business logic that was written in
COBOL decades ago, and moving it to new modern platforms, like Linux.
Programatically giving these applications a GUI face-lift, while
maintaining their original business logic. I know because many companies
pay me to do just that. I have a client that wants to use Centos Linux
with Fujistu Cobol, and Fujitsu says it's gotta be Red Hat, any help
will much appreciated.
Thanks,
