What gets migrated?
Asysco Migration Technology (AMT) helps you migrate from a 2200 platform to the Windows/SQL environment. We deal with every corner of the mainframe environment: the applications, batch processing and the actual data in the mainframe databases.
Asysco converts the following for Unisys OS/2200 environments (among others):
- COBOL,
- Executive Control Language (ECLs),
- MASM/Assembler,
- Flat files, and
- Data based on the DMS/RDMS schemas and sub schemas.
No changes in business rules
Of course, each of the above has different migration requirements. Which is why we have created multiple translators to handle each of them separately. All of this migration is done with absolutely NO changes to your organizations’ business logic. Your current business rules are preserved and no re-engineering is required.
Conversions
AMT-VS (Visual Studio®) converts:
- DPS screens to ASP.NET, with AJAX (Asynchronous Javascript and XML) technology.
- ECLs to VB Scripts.
- Indexed sequential/flat files as indexed sequential/flat files.
- The DMS/RDMS schemas/sub schemas and data to MS SQL, Oracle or DB2.
We provide you with an editor extension for copy libraries allowing the review, debugging and maintenance of copy procs in one place. A report builder supplies you with text-based reports. Our build tool enables you to compile objects upon changes of a table, index, copy-proc.
Optional functions
Optionally, AMT-VS offers:
- A central location for server maintenance, job control, security, message center and performance statistics.
- A real-time query function allows queries against the new SQL based database.
- The possibility to view past transaction paths logged by users with the transaction playback function and some other operations functions.
- A deployment center allows code deployment from one build-set to another.
- A database reorganizes controller checks and maintains the correct build version as well as applying the physical changes to the database.
