IAI has extensive experience working with a wide variety of legacy systems environments. This broad and deep experience with diverse legacy technologies has enabled IAI to establish a core competency in legacy systems modernization over the past 25 years.
Source and Target Platforms
IAI’s modernization experience includes migrating systems from various source platforms to target platforms with different underlying architectures, as shown in the table below:
Source Platform |
Target Platform |
IBM mainframe |
- IBM z/OS
- UNIX
- Windows Server
|
Unisys mainframe |
|
Legacy UNIX server |
|
Database Management Systems
IAI specializes in modernizing legacy databases into relational database management systems (RDBMS) in mainframe, UNIX, or Windows server-based environments. Using its ICONS solution suite, IAI automates much of the detailed work necessary to migrate mission-critical legacy data. The database migrations targeted by ICONS include:
Legacy DBMS |
Target DBMS |
CA-DATACOM |
- RDBMS (DB2, Oracle or SQL Server)
|
Unisys DMS 1100/2200 |
- RDBMS (DB2, Oracle or SQL Server)
|
VSAM (indexed) files |
- RDBMS (DB2, Oracle or SQL Server)
- VSAM
|
Application Systems
Modernizing legacy application systems is the primary focus of most IAI client engagements. Using its ICONS solution suite and leveraging the capability of the Micro Focus product suite, IAI automates the majority of migration tasks, ensuring accurate transformation of business logic. Specific experience with legacy application system environments includes:
Legacy Application Language |
Target Application Language |
CA-IDEAL |
CICS COBOL with BMS maps
|
DMS/CICS/VS |
CICS COBOL with BMS maps
|
IBM or Unisys COBOL |
Micro Focus COBOL
|
IBM JCL |
Micro Focus JCL
|
Unisys ECL |
Windows command scripts
|
These systems can then be further enhanced by:
