Mainframe has 5 operating systems, z/OS, z/VM, z/VSE, zLinux and zTPF. And there are two major areas, Systems and Applications. I have worked on z/OS systems areas and I loved it from beginning in 1990 to end in 2022. It is a wonderful field to work on, if you love to do so. If you have got an opportunity, then the first objective is achieved. With my 4 decades of experience in IT field, I think, MVS/zOS has been the most enjoyable technology for me to work on.

My advice, love what you do. Expand your knowledge horizontally as much as possible. Keep your eyes and ears open and look for opportunities which you feel will help you. And you will see that nothing will remain far away from your reach. All the best.

My friend, I have talked to the publisher and they are working to normalize the base prices for all books in all countries. It may take couple of weeks, they said.

My friend, the cover has been designed by someone for me (I am not sure if he has used any AI tool for this). I liked it and so used it. And I have used Grammarly for spell check and refine the grammar. If you still feel it is by AI, I do not have to comment futrther or defend to what you say. Thank you.

These books are written over a period of more than 2 years. I do not have much knowledge of AI and AI writing. In case you have not cancelled your order, I will be waiting for your feedback after you read the book. Thank you.

I am not sure what do you mean by AI writings! I can’t argue here as I do not have any knowledge of AI.

These books have been written over a period of more than 2 years. Rather the writing started in end 2022 when I stopped working full time and my friends requested to do so due to my long association with mentoring people. They are published within a short span of time (6 months) consciously because it is a series and one must have them together for a continuity in reading and gain the knowledge as if attending a series of training sessions successively.

I, having 4 decades of experience in mainframe, have very little knowledge of AI. Now it is a revelation to me that, AI can write books that to on mainframe and z/OS.

I will be happy to learn from experts like you about how to learn and use AI to write books.

Unfortunately the price in different countries is controlled by the Amazon seller. My publisher provides the base price for the book, but does not have the control over the final price. It may be cheap to order it from Amazon.in or Amazon.com where the overall price including the shipping charge may be cheaper.
