Executive Summary
Move forward in the information economy
With COBOL applications continuing to process
85% of all computer transactions, CTOs in
large organizations face a dilemma - how
to exploit the value in their existing system,
while reducing spiraling maintenance costs,
long development cycles, and delivering
new services to the business?
Leverage and Extend is the chosen path of
organizations with a strategic commitment
to existing delivery platforms (mainframe,
Windows, LINUX) but who wish to leverage
and extend their legacy applications.
Our Leverage and Extend solutions portfolio
offers industry-leading development environments
for IBM Mainframe, Windows and .NET, and
UNIX and Linux applications.
Legacy applications are extended into J2EE,
.NET or Web services. From here, businesses
can exploit the benefits of a Service Orientated
Architecture - namely a truly modular IT
environment.
CTOs can concentrate more on delivering
new services to the business, and devote
less effort, time and cost to maintaining
legacy applications.
With Leverage and Extend, development costs
are reduced immediately by using available
skills and platforms efficiently. Furthermore,
extending applications does not involve
the risk and disruption associated with
"rip and replace" strategies.
Benefits
- Reduce development costs and improve operational
efficiency.
- Decrease application development times.
- Extend your legacy to contemporary platforms
with Web services.
- Drive business innovation through legacy
reuse.
- Mitigate the high cost and risk of "rip
and replace" strategies.
- Reduce reliance on greying technologies.
