Re:IBM mainframe beats other platforms for cost and performance by spoonjim on Wednesday September 08, 2021 @12:49PM (#28459708)
The purpose of this article isn’t to actually argue that mainframes are cheaper. It’s an asset for a CTO who’s staying on mainframes. When the CFO asks him “why aren’t we moving to Azure? I heard my buddy say he saved $40 million doing that” the CFO sends this article.

If anything this article shows why Financial companies aren't moving away from Mainframe. It is comparatively speaking such as small amount of money while the risk are incalculable. Upgrading to Z15 is a much easier option.
