Database and Application Migration 

Programmers skilled in old 4GL languages and DBAs for non-relational databases are becoming harder to find. Many organizations are moving off these legacy systems. Automated migration tools can help solve this acute resource constraint. Our migration solution for ADSO is high-efficiency tool that delivers all the benefits of automated migration, while leaving you in the driver's seat throughout the process.

ADSO to COBOL Migration

The Language Migration tool converts ADSO dialogs into COBOL SQL-based programs working in a pseudo converse mode so that a separate COBOL program is created for each dialog and dialog/menu. After the automated translation is completed, the user can customize the code to reflect their specific requirements. ADSO conversion is usually followed by translating the IDMS commands in the COBOL programs into optimized SQL statements that perform the required functions.

Because ADSO migrations demand special care, it is crucial to prepare a roadmap for every migration implementation using our Application Portfolio Analysis tool. This automated tool gives you a detailed mapping of system-wide IT activity and the interconnections between all software components. Using this roadmap, BluePhoenix can customize your migration strategy based on an in-depth examination of actual system elements, optimizing it for your enterprise's unique environment, business rules, and needs.
