u SavingS: massive cuts in the costs of your operations.

u Modernization: functional and technolo– gical improvements on your applications.

u Methodology: migration process without risks and constraints, maintaining continuity of service.

u Perenniality: protection of your invest-ments and existing business competences.

u StandardS: target hardware and soft– ware platform matches current market standards.

“ The solution of eranea is the best answer to the priorities of CIOs: massive cost cuts and moderni-zation of IT systems ”

The migration solution of eranea relies on:u The 100% automatic conversion

of original programs to maintai-nable Java source code.

u The guarantee of fully identical functions in the converted applications.

u The continuity of maintenance of original system without interrup-tion during migration project.

u The absence of big bang, thanks to cohabitation of new and old system.

u The progressiveness of migra-tion thanks to sharing of same database.

u The tailoring of project execution to your needs.

It is supported by a set of Java products allowing efficient migra-tion and subsequent operations:

u Tool to analyze and manage software assets.

u Continuous integration system all along entire chain, from automated transcoding to de-ployment on application servers.

u Module for creation and mana-gement of automatic execution of non-regression tests.

u Complete environment for effi-cient pre- and post-migration development.

u Monitoring tool for real-time supervision of migrated applications.

u Convert automatically your legacy programs (Cobol,...) to maintainable Java source code.

u Implement a runtime environment reproducing exactly all the legacy batch and transactional functions (CICS®, SQL, …).

u Rely on a set of Java products optimizing the migration process and then the daily operations.

Migration towards an open and standard platform brings cost cuts up to 90% when compared to a mainframe.

Resulting recurring savings often amount to millions of USD/EUR per year.

Most often, achieved savings finance the project and then provide an extremely quick return on investment.

Significant cost cuts are already achieved over the first months of migration by progressive stop of legacy subsystems.

The migration towards Linux/x86 servers produces savings related to both core supplier and third parties.

The transcoder of eranea ensures a fully identical conversion of your applications to Java from a func-tional standpoint.

The character-based interface screens are mutated to identical web-based pages, eliminating training needs for end-users.

The Java source code and web-based screens can be taken over by your teams for further functio-nal innovation.

To suit a SOA architecture, the transcoder of eranea can generate

a web service for each legacy transaction or process.

The integration of a suite for Business Process Management can then be achieved rapidly.

The move toward a J2EE-com-pliant application server becomes natural.

The solution of eranea allows you to host your applications in a private or public cloud.

eranea fosters an incremental and smooth migration method elimina-ting needs for big-bang.

The new system is able to run in parallel with the existing one by sharing the same database.

The migration happens without blocking maintenance of the legacy application.

The Java programs are conti-nuously and automatically

updated with the last changes on Cobol source code.

Non-regression test tools conti-nuously validate the coherency between the old and the new system.

The pace of migration for indivi-dual end users can be freely defined.

The solution of eranea protects the numerous men-years invested in the development of your applications.

The transcoder of eranea preserves the functions in your applications, but also coding syntax and algo-rithms.

The intelligence included in your original application code is trans-ported to Java programs ensuring the perenniality of your business know-how.

The identical structures ensure the adhesion of your developers. They perceive the continuity of their role.

After migration, maintenance can be pursued either in Cobol or in Java.

u complete and integrated solution

u Cost cuts amount to millions on Is budgetSavings and ROI visible after only a couple of months of migration thanks to progressive stop of historical subsystems.

Reductions up to 90% for hardware and software costs.

u migration via small steps without risksNo big-bang !

Natural cohabitation between old and new system over the course of migration.

Migration of end user happens smoothly at best suited pace, in small reversible steps and without bumps.

u multiple references exist: administration, media, finance, software vendors

u The new technological context extend the life of the applicationJava allows significant further technological and functional improvements.

It brings new development philosophy and methodology.

x86/linux infrastructure is currently the optimal choice among all possible Java platforms.

A private or public cloud can host the migrated application.
