Overview
Don’t let legacy tech hold you back. Modernize your IT.
Change is inevitable and companies need to adapt to change. However, legacy infrastructure and applications can limit enterprises from responding quickly to change or making the most of new business opportunities. Modernizing technology to propel purpose-driven growth and transformation is an imperative.
Migration and modernization of mainframe to cloud, for instance, enables enterprises to achieve up to 70% savings in IT infrastructure spend. What’s more, with cloud-based DevOps and on-demand resources and managed services from cloud providers, you can gain the agility required for success.
TCS’ service for mainframe modernization to AWS revolves around the 6Rs of migration—Rehost, Refactor, Rewrite, Replace, Retain and Retire. We also leverage the TCS MasterCraftTM automation framework to reduce the cost and time involved in transformation.
Solution
Accelerate mainframe modernization with TCS and AWS.
TCS Mainframe Modernization services for AWS brings together the power of AWS capabilities and TCS’ proprietary solutions to migrate, modernize, and execute mainframe applications in the cloud. Our solution covers the following phases:
- Plan–This is where we design the blueprint for the modernized application.
- Build–In this phase, we automate applications using TCS Cloud Foundation.
- Migrate–We enable the migration by leveraging TCS MasterCraftTM.
TCS Mainframe Modernization services for AWS is an end-to-end solution that covers the entire spectrum of migration and modernization, from assessment of the current IT estate to management of migrated applications in the cloud. We help enterprises assess maturity for mainframe modernization; applications for microservices fitment; reference architecture formulation; and build and cost determination with TCS’ Modernization Propeller. In addition, we help manage hybrid environments with our Cloud Exponence platform.
The service leverages several key Amazon native services such as Amazon EC2 instances, AWS ELB, Amazon S3, Amazon RDS, Amazon Identity and Access Management and can be customized to meet specific business requirements. Automation, cost efficiency, and innovation are embedded in TCS’ approach to modernization. Other key differentiators that set our solution apart are domain-specific reference architecture, and accelerators such as TCS Cloud Counsel, ZippMasterCraftTM, ZippedAgile, and Modernization Propeller.
Benefits
With TCS’ service, you can easily move your mainframe workloads to AWS and achieve:
Reduction in mainframe capex costs and technical debt.
Enhanced ability to innovate and faster go to market.
Lower upfront investments.
Greater agility and scalability.
The TCS advantage
TCS manages over half-a-billion mainframe MIPS for enterprises across the world.
TCS Mastercraft has transformed over 300 million lines of legacy code to Java and has over 220 patents on code analysis, reverse engineering, and code transformation.
With deep domain knowledge of legacy systems such as IBM mainframe, TCS is in a unique position to help enterprises achieve digital transformation.
A pioneer in IBM mainframe services for more than three decades, we have been helping large organizations adopt the latest technologies. We have invested in IBM Z-series mainframes to train experts and co-innovate new solutions with IBM.
