Government agencies, financial institutions and Fortune 500 enterprises have
used SoftwareMining's automated, rule-based COBOL-to-Java modernization tools
for mission-critical applications. These case studies show how organizations
have preserved established business behaviour while moving to maintainable
Java applications.
ING Bank Modernizes 1.5 Million Lines of COBOL to Java
ING Bank modernized approximately 1.5 million lines of IBM COBOL, CICS,
DB2 and JCL to Java using SoftwareMining's automated, rule-based
COBOL-to-Java translation tools. Following extensive validation involving
approximately 2 billion transactions, the modernized application entered
production in 2022. The project demonstrated that large-scale enterprise
COBOL modernization can preserve business behaviour while producing
maintainable Java applications.
"We found SoftwareMining to be highly professional and technically competent
throughout the project. Their translator and support exceeded our expectations."
Maine Revenue Services Modernizes State Government COBOL Tax System
Maine Revenue Services modernized a mission-critical IBM COBOL tax
processing application to Java using SoftwareMining's automated,
rule-based COBOL-to-Java translation tools. The modernized application
successfully supported state tax processing for approximately 15 years
before being replaced as part of a later business transformation programme.
"We are seeing profound advantages from this modernization initiative.
Beyond achieving cost and maintenance targets, our teams are markedly
more efficient, paving the way for improved service to Maine's citizens."
CRIF Modernizes COBOL Credit Decisioning System to Java
CRIF, a global provider of credit management and banking information
services, converted its COBOL-based Credit Decisioning Analysis system
to Java using SoftwareMining's automated, rule-based COBOL-to-Java
translation tools. CRIF's internal team managed the translation, testing
and deployment, retaining control of the source code, business data and
modernization process.
"I would give this 5 stars."
Bank of Montreal Modernizes COBOL and DB2 Batch Application to Java
Bank of Montreal converted one of its remaining COBOL and DB2 batch
applications, comprising approximately 250,000 lines of code, to Java
using SoftwareMining's automated, rule-based COBOL-to-Java translation
tools. The project was completed in approximately three months while
preserving the application's established business behaviour.
"We rate SoftwareMining 5 out of 5 for the exemplary conversion and
exceptional support we received."
TransUnion Modernizes HPE NonStop Tandem COBOL to Java
TransUnion converted more than 200 HPE NonStop, formerly Tandem,
COBOL applications to Java using SoftwareMining's automated, rule-based
COBOL-to-Java translation tools. The portfolio contained approximately
equal numbers of online and batch applications, demonstrating support for
both interactive transaction processing and enterprise batch workloads.
"Zero production outages and no post-go-live defects."
Verisk Modernizes COBOL Applications to Java and C#
Verisk used SoftwareMining's automated, rule-based translation tools to
modernize enterprise COBOL applications across two target architectures.
Batch applications were converted to Java and deployed on AWS with
PostgreSQL. Online applications were converted to C# and deployed on
Microsoft IIS. The projects demonstrate SoftwareMining's support for both
enterprise batch processing and online transaction applications.
"The teams have been using the SoftwareMining-based solution in production
for some time, and it has proven to be very stable. A testament to the
quality of the solution. SoftwareMining was instrumental in the successful
migration off the mainframe."
CGI Delivers COBOL-to-Java Modernization to International Clients
CGI selected SoftwareMining's automated, rule-based COBOL-to-Java
translation tools for an enterprise modernization project. The resulting
Java application has since been delivered by CGI to clients internationally,
including in Japan, and has remained in active use since its original
deployment in 2011. Its continued operation and maintenance demonstrate
the long-term viability of the translated Java application.
Texas DFPS COBOL Application Modernization
SoftwareMining's automated, rule-based COBOL modernization tools supported
an enterprise application modernization project for the Texas Department
of Family and Protective Services (DFPS). The project applied a predictable
and auditable translation approach to mission-critical public-sector
applications with important reliability, governance and maintainability
requirements.
Whirlpool Modernizes Enterprise COBOL Applications to Java
SoftwareMining's automated, rule-based COBOL-to-Java translation tools were
used in an enterprise modernization project for Whirlpool, with NTT DATA
providing systems integration and delivery. The project demonstrates how
SoftwareMining tools can support large-scale COBOL-to-Java programmes led by
global systems integrators.
IAI Uses SoftwareMining Tools for Government CICS Modernization
Information Analytics Incorporated (IAI) used SoftwareMining's automated,
rule-based COBOL-to-Java translation tools during a government modernization
project involving IBM CICS, VSAM and batch applications. IAI participated
in the application translation and testing phases, working with SoftwareMining
to validate the generated Java and identify project-specific requirements.
Experience from the project contributed to further improvements in CICS and
VSAM handling, Java code generation and the supporting runtime libraries used
in subsequent enterprise modernization projects.
Schober Group Modernizes COBOL Applications to Java
Schober Information Group converted its legacy COBOL applications to Java
using SoftwareMining's automated, rule-based COBOL-to-Java translation
tools. The project reduced mainframe runtime and development-tool costs
while enabling Java developers to maintain and extend the converted
application within the company's existing development environment.
"A key factor in the decision was the productivity gains achieved by
deploying the SoftwareMining language-translation tool."
