The migration from COBOL to Java is a significant undertaking for any organization. If you’re like us, your natural impulse will be to wrap your head around the technical aspects of such a conversion, particularly if legacy code is your main thing. But the transition from COBOL to Java involves more than just rewriting code.
Moving to cloud-based technologies can be a risky investment, but the benefits are fast becoming hard to ignore. Implemented carefully, your organization can lower costs permanently, scale as needed, and react to market conditions with agility in ways you simply can’t with an on-premise solution. For these reasons and more, moving legacy systems to the
As technology evolves at an unprecedented pace, software applications are becoming increasingly complex. To ensure their reliability, it is crucial to have robust testing processes in place. Traditional manual testing methods, while effective, can be time-consuming and often fall short in terms of test coverage. Thankfully, Artificial Intelligence (AI) has arrived to lend us a
Many companies that adopt Robotic Process Automation enjoy substantial early gains from their efforts, including greater efficiencies and reduced menial labor, and win plenty of fans throughout the company. If your organization has yet to implement RPA and you believe it’s a good move, you’ll want to make a solid case to get that effort
In the world of programming languages, two giants have stood the test of time: COBOL and Java. While Java has become the go-to language for modern web development, COBOL continues to power critical systems in industries such as finance and healthcare. This article will delve into the technical differences between COBOL and Java, bridging the
In our Modernization Strategies series, we look at the full range of modernization pathways available to organizations that maintain legacy applications. Today, we will focus on the ‘replace’ strategy. The ‘Replace’ Strategy Explained The replace strategy involves swapping out an old system with a new one that better fits the current and future needs of
In this webinar, you will learn how to "refactor" your legacy app developed in COBOL, RPG, or CA 2E (Synon) directly to maintainable runtime-free Java and JS. Demo included.
In our Modernization Strategies series, we look at the full range of modernization pathways available to organizations that maintain legacy applications. In this article, we focus on refactoring, a key process that involves modifying and improving the internal structure of code without altering its external behavior. This concept becomes particularly significant when dealing with legacy
In our Modernization Strategies series, we look at the full range of modernization pathways available to organizations that maintain legacy applications. In this article, we focus on Replatforming. I’ll define it, explain the pros and cons, and outline best practices. What is Replatforming? Replatforming, also known as “lift-tinker-and-shift,” involves moving parts of a system without
In our Modernization Strategies series, we take a look at the full range of modernization pathways available to organizations that maintain legacy applications. In this article, we focus on the first and most basic modernization strategy Rehosting, or ‘lift and shift’. We’ll define it, explain the pros and cons, and outline best practices. What is
