Your service provider for mainframe services

Operating mainframes reliably is no longer an easy matter these days. We want to help you here and offer you an alternative. SVA can take responsibility for hosting and backup of IBM Z (LPARs) for mainframe clients using z/VM, z/VSE and/or Linux on Z. This service was recently made available for z/OS environments too.

Do you have any questions?

We look forward to hearing from you if you have any questions on these topics.
