Not even close. I've done both and they are categorically different. Mainframes were single highly-reliable, very fast, extremely expensive systems. The cloud is a swarm of unreliable slow systems. My laptop is faster than most of our cloud instances. Systems need a total redesign to run well in a cloud.
