9:00 AM - 10:30 AM, (UTC-07:00) Pacific Time (US & Canada)
It's time to bring your mainframe into the same Git workflows your distributed teams already use.
Join us for an exclusive technical workshop to see how Git can become the enterprise source control system for both distributed and z/OS development. You’ll get hands on experience of how BMC AMI DevX Code Pipeline unifies distributed and z/OS development under one Source Code Management (SCM) strategy, without compromising audit, compliance, or release governance.
If you've ever wondered how Git workflows can drive better mainframe builds and deployments, this workshop is for you.
What You’ll Get
- Clear overview of how Git and BMC AMI DevX Code Pipeline work together for z/OS development
- Connect live with peers and BMC experts during interactive Q&A for tailored insights
- Practical answers to common concerns around migration, governance, and operational risk, including how to adopt Git on the mainframe without a risky big-bang migration
- Live demo showing Git events triggering mainframe builds and deployments, with status feeding back into Git so teams share one source of truth
- Hands-on experience exploring and editing mainframe code from modern IDEs such as Eclipse or VS Code
- Insights into how a phased migration approach can unify mainframe and distributed teams without disrupting stable applications
First 70 registrants will have a hands-on lab experience with BMC AMI DevX Code Pipeline. Everyone else will be able to observe the hands-on labs.
Date: June 18, 2026 Time: 9AM PST, 11AM CST, 12PM EST Duration: 90 minutes
