Deloitte's Mainframe Application Modernization suite, powered by innoWake™, provides enterprises with the capability to transform legacy applications written in languages like COBOL, Natural, PL1, and CA Gen and move them to Amazon Web Services (AWS) in a fully automated manner. (deloitte.com)
The Open Mainframe Project is looking to fill a technology skills gap by providing COBOL resources to the public sector. (sdtimes.com)
What you saw was a mainframe COBOL/CICS implementation of the TPC-C benchmark (an application with over 50,000 LOC and 7 BMS screens) being compiled by Heirloom (without any code changes) and deployed to a Java Application Server for immediate execution via a browser. (heirloom.cc)
Although the resulting application is 100% Java (and deployable on-premise or to any cloud), Heirloom provides full support (via Eclipse plug-ins) for on-going development of the application in the host language (COBOL in this example, but PL/I also) or in the target language (i.e. (heirloom.cc)
However, expensive mainframe platforms using COBOL, an outdated and increasingly unsupported language, were not built to meet this pace of change. (fujitsu.com)
That's why at Fujitsu, we've developed a highly automated solution to migrate legacy applications built with languages such as COBOL to modern languages hosted on on-premise or cloud platforms, such as Microsoft Azure and AWS. (fujitsu.com)
Whether you choose to rehost the applications or transform the COBOL to Java, this can yield real value for many mainframe applications. (cloudframe.com)
So, the simplest way to move applications to the cloud, particularly applications written in the COBOL language, is to rehost them, using mainframe emulators from several vendors or transform the code to Java and use a Linux/JVM runtime environment in the cloud. (cloudframe.com)
Also, he says, X4ML allows old COBOL (COmmon Business Oriented Language) programs to "participate" in SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol), "so a SOAP message can be sent from the Web and X4ML will convert that into the format that the mainframe expects. (wallstreetandtech.com)
Enterprises struggling to fill demands for Cobol skills should consider an application modernisation program which could also pave the way for migration off the mainframe to an open system. (itworldcanada.com)
Cobol skills remain in demand among banks and govnerment departments, but the traditional mainframe platform is under pressure from modern Unix, Windows and Linux systems. (itworldcanada.com)
Cobol remains strategic and is used by all types of mission critical applications like those in banking and telecommunications," Craig said. (itworldcanada.com)
There are more Cobol transactions than Google searches every day and mainframe use is growing as people make more use out of them. (itworldcanada.com)
Our development environment is similar to Java and C++ and since it's cross-platform companies can move Cobol applications to Linux or Windows. (itworldcanada.com)
Cobol can 'live-on' with open systems without the mainframe," Taylor said. (itworldcanada.com)
