Application Migration ROI Calculator - Step 1 of 4
Application migration is a stepwise process. We would like you to consider a single mainframe CICS workload as the first application migration project. Ideally, the workload should be small enough to migrate to a Micro Focus Server environment without relying on your core system's data. It may be one that has its own DB2 or VSAM file structures. Over time, all of your work may be re-hosted onto another platform or you may choose to run a heterogeneous environment. For this ROI calculation, consider a CICS online transaction workload that uses 10-20% of your IT data center's MIPS today. Enter that portion of MIPS in the box below.
| Technical Point: Connector technology can connect migrated applications back to your IBM mainframe and your core databases. | Value Point: Many organizations are reviewing the continued use of their mainframe systems with a view to migrating some or all of their applications to alternative platforms to help reduce costs, support new business requirements, consolidate IT systems or to enable them to be more agile in supporting the business going forward |
