Here is a webinar on analyzing and mapping RPG, COBOL, and CA 2E (Synon) enterprise applications.
Webinar Synopsis
Many organizations have built up large COBOL/RPG code bases and CA 2E models over a period of years, using different personnel and with varying degrees of quality. Documentation is often limited or inaccurate. This means that analysis tasks are inefficient, and it is often impossible to acertain the true application state and develop firm estimates for system maintenance, code modernization, or package implementation tasks. ADC’s solution to this problem is to offer an Application Analysis and Mapping service based on industry leading tooling such as Databorough X-Analysis. The documentation produced by this service can be delivered in static form, or provided as bundle with X-Analysis software so that your documentation is always up to date.
Application Analysis and Mapping using X-Analysis can be particularly valuable in the following scenarios:
- active development/significant ongoing investment
- implementing SOA
- evaluating tooling upgrades
- problems with audit, model corruption, or source code unavailable
- planning migration to another development tool/package/language
The benefits include:
- reduced application ownership costs
- conformance to audit requirements
- more precise modernization costs & timeframes
Please view the webinar for more information. Although the presentation is focused on CA 2E (Synon) customers, everything equally applies to shops with hand coded RPG and COBOL applications.
