Zviremera mudunhu reAmerica reNew Jersey vatanga kutsvaga vanogadzira mapurogiramu vanoziva mutauro weCOBOL nekuda kwekuwedzera kwemutoro pamaPC ekare muhurongwa hwevashandi vekuAmerica nekuda kweiyo coronavirus. Sekunyora kuri kuita The Register, nyanzvi dzichada kuvandudza software pamaframes ane makore makumi mana ekuberekwa, ayo asingachakwanise kubata nemutoro wakura zvakanyanya pakati pehuwandu hwevasina mabasa nekuda kweCovid-40 denda.
Kushomeka kweCOBOL-savvy programmers hakugumiri kuNew Jersey. Mudunhu reConnecticut, zviremera zviri kutsvagawo nyanzvi dzemutauro uyu, uye muchiitiko ichi kutsvaga kuri kuitwa pamwe chete nevakuru vemamwe matunhu matatu. Tom's Hardware anonyora kuti kuedza kwavo, senge muNew Jersey, hakusati kwatungamira mukubudirira. https://www.tomshardware.com/news/new-jersey-cobol-coders-mainframes-coronavirus
Maererano neComputer Business Review ongororo (https://www.cbronline.com/news/cobol-code-bases) yakaitwa muchikamu chekutanga che2020, dambudziko rekudiwa kwekuvandudza software parizvino rakatarisana ne70% yemakambani ayo, nechikonzero chimwe kana chimwe, achiri kushandisa zvirongwa zvakanyorwa muCOBOL. Huwandu chaihwo hwemabhizinesi akadai hahuzivikanwe, asi maererano neReuters, 2020 bhiriyoni mitsara yekodhi yemutauro uyu inoshandiswa pasi rese muna 220.
COBOL inoshandiswa kushingaira kwete muhurongwa hwemabasa, asiwo mumasangano emari. Mutauro wemakore makumi matanhatu nerimwe une masimba makumi mana nematatu muzana emabhengi ekushandisa, uye 61% yemaATM pasi rese anoshandisa software yakagadzirwa nayo kusvika pamwero wakati.
Chimwe chezvikonzero nei masangano asingakurumidze kusiya COBOL uye kuchinjira kuzvirongwa zvakagadzirwa uchishandisa mitauro yemazuva ano yekuronga mutengo wakakura wekuvandudza. Izvi zvakaratidzwa neCommonwealth Bank yeAustralia, iyo yakasarudza kutsiva zvachose zvikumbiro zvese zvakanyorwa muCOBOL.
Vamiriri vebhangi vakashuma kuti shanduko kune software nyowani yakatora makore mashanu - yakaitika kubva 2012 kusvika 2017. Mutengo wechiitiko ichi chakakura unozivikanwa - iyo yekuvandudza inodhura bhangi madhora mazana manomwe nemakumi mashanu emamiriyoni.
