Arkin’s Legacy Migration Framework

[email protected]


Mainframe [Online ] - Arkin’s Conversion Approach Vendor Indepedence

Performance [response time]

(similar to that of existing

application or better)

Standard Frameworks

[No proprietary code / OSS]

Code Quality : ISO9126 compliant

coding standards

MF Database / VSAM file migration

to RDBMS

Protection of investment

Low TCO / High ROI

No licensing of our Tools [internally

used by our development team]

Arkin’s Tools / Frameworks as

accelerators

Conversion efficiency is more than 60%

Save time & money

No need to manual rewrite

It can’t be done with Tools alone

Almost Never a 1:1 Migration Architectural differences between COBOL and Java Procedure oriented GUI Differences – Character / function keys based Restructuring of Windows Architecture (need based) Restructuring of Code Performance bottlenecks

Existence of inefficient code in legacy languages SQL code in the client side Pure business validations in procedures Not following OOAD principles Bottlenecks in code Dead Code/ Unused Code

Implementation of New Features Security Features (coding security: Spring IOC) Addition of Functionalities

Legacy Concepts Not Always Map Liner programming Character user interface Data and process are separate

Legacy Issues Legacy System Knowledge – Not Available Tight coupling between UI & Business Logic Poor coding practices

Legacy Migration is:

About retaining and extending the value of your investment An opportunity to align business processes more closely with new IT capabilities


Tools Driven. Factory Approach.

Migration Approach

The three-phased approach clearly separates the three elements of the migration – Planning, Migration and Testing & Deployment. The tool migration

How to go about?• Perform Application Portfolio Analysis - bi-furcated by each application

– Establish complete

• inventory of legacy applications of both online & batch programs

• Application flow including of dependencies

– Identify all external integrations

• Database based / Flat file based / Message Brokers etc

– Perform Application Assessment• Generate code metrics

• Perform run-time analysis

• Establish usage metrics

– Discuss migration objectives and Technology Choices

• Establish the dependency flow

– From lowest / independent application to highest dependent application

– Pickup the least dependent application as pilot

• Migration Choice[s]

– Independent applications Migrate code and DB and deploy into production

– Dependent applications • Migrate code first, keep DB as is and deploy into production

• After all applications are moved into production then migrate the DB to Oracle

Summary & Next Steps

Activities Prospect Arkin

1 Non Disclosure Agreement _/

2 Provide access to running legacy application source code, Datastore

metadata

_/

3 Provide demo of the legacy application showing different complexities ,

mainly related to User Interface, Transaction processing, any special

requirements

_/

4 Address any queries related to the legacy application ; i.e. related to

access to source code, datastore, sample test data etc for static analysis

/ dynamic analysis of code

_/

5 Provide the Migration expectations & technologies choices _/

6 Perform static & dynamic analysis of code _/

7 Address any queries related to code, migration expectations /

technology choices

_/

8 Perform walk-thru of Statement Of Work and Address any clarifications _/

9 Submit SOW both Technical & Commercial and address any clarifications _/

10 SOW Approval / sign off to move forward with migration _/
