Our services and tools to accelerate migration processes in mainframe downsizing projects focus on:
- Evaluation of systems in origin: necessary for the definition of a modernization strategy in line with IT and business objectives.
The evaluation identifies the scope of the project, highlighting the most criticals and giving a correct size of the total cost and duration of the project. - Proof of concept that certifies the feasibility of the modernization solution based on source code analysis, optimization and automatic code conversion in target platform.
- Source Code Conversion:
- Prior to the migration of the code we apply optimization processes (identification and elimination of dead code, repeated functions, unused variables, ...), and can apply customized rules derived from each installation.
- Automated migration of source programs to languages defined for the target platform; conversion from JCL shell scripts, mainframe cobol to open cobol or java programs, CICS to html / javascript (frontend) and cobol or java (backend) programs, Easytrieve (or EARL) programs to cobol programs or reporting platforms BIRT)
- Testing on the new environment: definition of test strategies and test scenarios. Coordination of functional testing (parallel between the 2 environments) and execution of load and stress tests.
- Start-up and post-start support.
