Mainframes (openHPI)

Kaum jemand kennt sie. Und dennoch hat man täglich mit ihnen zu tun. Wer an einem Bankautomaten Geld abhebt, wer einen Flug bucht, wer mit der Deutschen Bahn unterwegs ist: Immer arbeiten im Hintergrund Mainframes, welche die wirklich entscheidende Arbeit verrichten und dafür sorgen, dass alles sicher und ohne Datenverlust vonstatten geht. Mehr als 70 Prozent der Global 500 arbeiten mit diesen Großrechnern.

Prof. Andreas Polze leitet den Kurs "Mainframes", in dem Referenten aus dem Academic Mainframe Consortium und von IBM zu Wort kommen werden. Dieses Consortium fördert die akademische Ausbildung auf Mainframe Computer und hat sich u.a. das Ziel gesetzt, die Forschung und Entwicklung in diesem Bereich zu fördern und voranzutreiben. Der Kurs ist eine Einführung in das Thema und wird insbesondere auf die Fragen der Mainframe-Architektur und der Anwendungsentwicklung eingehen. Außerdem werden Datenbanken und Transaktionssysteme, das Thema Sicherheit und Mainframes sowie Storage Management im Kurs behandelt werden.

Dieser Kurs richtet sich an alle, die sich für das Thema Mainframes interessieren und über grundlegende Kenntnisse in Informatik und Algorithmik verfügen.
Der Arbeitsaufwand dieses Kurses entspricht 2 ECTS Punkten.
