    Mainframe is a old technology, still used heavily by many companies. The market will still exist and will continue to do so for at least 10 years. No need to worry about the technology part.So you can continue your carrer in this.

    Market will be there but not as much as other technologies..It is good to keep yourself updated with latest technologies. Many of my friends who started as mainframe developers 8 yrs ago started moving to other technologies..

    Right, as #-Link-Snipped-# said, the legacy systems will continue to run on mainframes for some time; but sooner or later the systems will be transitioned. It's better to pick up a new technology if you are just starting.
