  "summary": "Mainframe modernization is a process of improving legacy mainframe applications, infrastructure, tools, and workflows to meet current business and technology requirements. This can include application refactoring, API integration, development automation, source-control migration, infrastructure updates, and improved security practices. The goal of mainframe modernization is to make existing systems easier to maintain, integrate, and evolve without disrupting business operations. In today's rapidly evolving business landscape, enterprises are increasingly looking to modernize their mainframe systems to keep up with changing customer expectations, evolving security requirements, and the need for faster software delivery. By modernizing their mainframe systems, organizations can improve operational efficiency, support security and compliance, increase developer productivity, and enable better integration with modern applications and systems.",
