Transformation Assistant™
Business Benefits
Transformation Assistant accelerates the modernization of legacy applications to flexible Java code.
Transformation Assistant allows users to modernize aging legacy enterprise applications to flexible Java code. The module allows users to transform user interfaces, business logic, and data access into functionally equivalent Java. The result is applications that better align with the strategic and resource requirement of an organization without the loss of proven business processes.
Transformation Assistant is an integrated module of the
Modernization Workbench®. Its proven ability to transform legacy applications to modern Java is delivered through:
Automated Transformation of Legacy Code
Transformation Assistant is based on sophisticated algorithms that streamline the process of modernizing to Java. The module creates database schemas that describe the design of the database within your application, ensuring the smooth transition of your critical data layer. It also transforms your proven business logic to Java, avoiding the loss of processes that your organization has long depended on. Further, the module generates Internet-accessible screens that modernize the user interface for your application, increasing its flexibility.
Component-Based Approach to Legacy Modernization
Transformation Assistant also enables your team to create logically complete Java beans that can be easily plugged into your application's new framework. This tactic may be especially useful for organizations that are migrating towards use of Web Services and already have an established framework. Users may initially deploy the Application Architect™ module of the Modernization Workbench to isolate business functionality into a component that can be individually transitioned.
Complementary Insights via the Modernization Workbench Platform
Transformation Assistant integrates with the Modernization Workbench platform. As a result, it allows users to leverage the Modernization Workbench's repository of insights into the existing applications -- including business rules, business processes, and documentation. This allows a user to understand the function and context of the targeted system prior to the execution of an Enterprise Application Modernization initiative.
