Ba boholong naheng ea Amerika ea New Jersey ba se ba qalile ho batla baetsi ba mananeo ba tsebang puo ea COBOL ka lebaka la boima bo eketsehileng ba li-PC tsa khale tsamaisong ea mesebetsi ea Amerika ka lebaka la coronavirus. Joalo ka ha Ngoliso e ngola, litsebi li tla hloka ho nchafatsa software ho li-mainframes tsa lilemo tse 40, tse seng li sa khone ho sebetsana le mojaro o seng o holile haholo har'a palo e ntseng e eketseha ea batho ba hlokang mosebetsi ka lebaka la seoa sa Covid-19.
Khaello ea li-program tsa COBOL-savvy ha e felle New Jersey feela. Naheng ea Connecticut, ba boholong ba boetse ba batla litsebi tsa puo ena, 'me tabeng ena patlo e etsoa ka kopanelo le ba boholong ba tsoang linaheng tse ling tse tharo.

Ho latela phuputso ea Computer Business Review (https://www.cbronline.com/news/cobol-code-bases) e entsoeng karolong ea pele ea 2020, bothata ba tlhokahalo ea ho ntlafatsa software hona joale bo tobane le 70% ea lik'hamphani tseo, ka lebaka le leng, li ntseng li sebelisa mananeo a ngotsoeng COBOL. Palo e nepahetseng ea likhoebo tse joalo ha e tsejoe, empa ho latela Reuters, mela e limilione tse likete tse 2020 ea khoutu ea puo ena e sebelisoa lefatšeng ka bophara ka 220.
COBOL e sebelisoa ka mafolofolo eseng feela lits'ebetsong tsa mosebetsi, empa hape le mekhatlong ea lichelete. Puo ea lilemo tse 61 e na le matla a 43% ea lits'ebetso tsa banka, 'me 95% ea li-ATM lefatšeng ka bophara li sebelisa software e entsoeng ka eona ho isa bohōleng bo itseng.
E 'ngoe ea mabaka a etsang hore mekhatlo e se potlakele ho lahla COBOL le ho fetohela ho mananeo a bōpiloeng ho sebelisoa lipuo tsa hona joale tsa lenaneo ke litšenyehelo tse phahameng tsa ho li ntlafatsa. Sena se ile sa bontšoa ke Commonwealth Bank of Australia, e ileng ea etsa qeto ea ho fetola ka ho feletseng likopo tsohle tse ngotsoeng ho COBOL.
Baemeli ba banka ba tlaleha hore phetoho ea software e ncha e nkile lilemo tse hlano - e etsahetse ho tloha 2012 ho isa 2017. Litsenyehelo tsa ketsahalo ena e kholo li tsejoa - ntlafatso e jella banka hoo e ka bang $ 750 milione.
