> COBOL at 50: Same Age as Barbie, But More Like Rodney
Last Thursday, May 28, was COBOL's 50th birthday. COBOL may
share the same age as Barbie, that icon of American ideals about
beauty and consumerism, and a product of Mattel--an AS/400 shop that
was once featured on the cover of AS/400 Technology SHOWCASE magazine.
> The 2009 IT career survival guide
Cobol skills can be great job insurance, for example.
And don't forget about skills that have been hot for a
while and thus tend to be neglected, such as open source,
.Net, and Java.
> COBOL Into the Clouds
Does COBOL have a place in cloud computing?
Cloud computing is about services, not languages. Many people
would tell you that you need to start learning Ruby or Python in
order to use cloud technology.
> Alchemy Solutions Shows Moving COBOL to .NET Isn't Magic
Alchemy Solutions, established as a subsidiary of TMV Holdings,
purchased Fujitsu's NetCOBOL legacy modernization portfolio and

Micro Focus, a U.K.-based software company that strongly believes
in aligning software with business requirements, broadening its
product line, and extended its geographical reach, last week bought
Relativity Technologies, a company with a similar philosophy and
product set, but with a slightly different niche.
> Legacy modernization opens Windows for publisher
"It was hard at the time to convince people that Windows could run
what they were seeing on the mainframe," he said of the book
publisher's transfer of five million lines of COBOL to a .NET
environment.
