Cloudflare Workers Now Support COBOL

Recently, COBOL has gained attention due to its use in unemployment claim systems during the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite being 60 years old, COBOL is still heavily used in information management systems and financial transactions. In response to this increased demand, IBM offered free online COBOL training. Cloudflare's serverless platform Workers now supports writing code in COBOL, allowing users to take advantage of its long-standing presence in the industry. The platform also provides a simple "Hello, World!" program written in COBOL as an example.
