Mainframe migration and modernization on Azure

OVERVIEW

Enhance enterprise agility—migrate your core systems to cloud.

• For success in today’s fast-changing digital world, organizations need agile, flexible, and high-performing core systems that support real-time integration, business intelligence and analytics for faster, smarter decision making. 
• However, the monolithic nature of mainframe systems, archaic user interfaces (UI), and outdated technologies reduce flexibility and response time. Add to it, the shortage of skills especially those with mainframe specialization—and the costs of ownership of these legacy systems shoots up.
• TCS’ Mainframe Migration and Modernization on Azure can help you move your core systems to Azure seamlessly and gain the agility and operational efficiency you need to thrive in disruption.

Solution

Take your digital core to cloud with TCS’ Mainframe Migration and Modernization on Azure. 

• We help enterprises move mainframe workloads to Azure with our proprietary toolsets like TCS MasterCraft™. Through reverse engineering and forward engineering of the existing IT estate, we help visualize and create a modern “to-be state” on Microsoft Azure—all powered by microservices and event-driven architectures. What’s more, our rehosting partner solutions ensure that the mainframe ecosystem migration to Azure is accomplished with minimal changes and cost effectively. 

Here’s what TCS’ Mainframe Migration and Modernization on Azure allows you to do:

• Reverse engineering: Analyze the current mainframe application and extract business logic from code in the absence of  functional documentation.

• Forward engineering: Create detailed  design of target application and finalize functional specification document.

• Native transformation: Build and deploy applications on Azure by utilizing cloud services.

• Mainframe lift and shift to Azure: Use Microsoft Azure partner solutions to lift, shift, and host various workloads on Azure.
