Top 50 Global Bank reduces mainframe costs by over 65% with CloudFrame

A leading global bank needed to modernize its mainframe and reduce growing costs but was concerned about business disruption and risk. The bank partnered with its digital transformation advisor, GFT, and COBOL modernization vendor CloudFrame to address this challenge.

CloudFrame and GFT implemented a solution that transformed COBOL batch jobs into a new environment, achieving verified functional equivalence and generating immediate cost savings. The project delivered over 65% savings on mainframe costs with no impact on the bank's development teams, creating a self-funding model for ongoing modernization efforts led by CloudFrame.
