Modern AI Starts Here: Seamless Mainframe Integration for Azure ML with PropelZ™
As enterprises embrace artificial intelligence, one common obstacle continues to stand in the way: their most valuable data is often locked inside legacy mainframe systems. Meanwhile, Microsoft Azure Machine Learning (ML) is enabling powerful innovations — from predictive models to responsible AI governance. But without access to legacy data, those models fall short. Enter PropelZ, the only out-of-the-box solution that enables you to seamlessly deliver mainframe data to Azure ML — securely, quickly, and without the heavy lift of traditional ETL.
From Mainframe to Azure ML — In One Day
PropelZ is designed to work out of the box — no custom development, no code, no waiting. Unlike traditional data movement tools, PropelZ:
- Installs in just hours
- Runs natively on IBM Z
- Starts moving data immediately
- Preserves governance and keeps mainframe systems untouched
Whether you need data from VSAM, sequential files, SMF logs, COBOL copybooks, or DB2 datasets, PropelZ is ready now to deliver it to Azure ML for training, analysis, and real-time AI integration.
Why Microsoft Azure ML?
Azure ML is one of the most robust enterprise AI platforms available — designed for building, deploying, and managing ML models at scale, with built-in tools for responsible AI, model explainability, and MLOps. It’s widely used for:
- Financial forecasting
- Predictive maintenance
- Real-time decisioning
- Supply chain modeling
- AI-assisted compliance
But unlocking legacy data to fuel these innovations has historically required long, complex projects — until now.
What PropelZ Enables for Azure ML Users
With PropelZ, you can:
- Deliver mainframe data directly into Azure ML workflows — on demand or real time
- Power hybrid models with a complete picture across legacy and cloud-native systems
- Support responsible AI with traceable, governed data pipelines
- Avoid complexity — no replication, no scripting, no multi-step ETL required
All of this can be done without disrupting source systems or involving complex migration efforts.
Simple, Flat Pricing
PropelZ is licensed at a flat $235K per customer annually — no volume pricing, no usage-based fees. Just reliable, real-time data movement from legacy systems to Azure ML — at enterprise scale.
