The Modernization Maturity Model is a practical framework meant to provide you a map from the initial business drivers behind the change requirements, through a technical strategy towards the appropriate tactical options.
With decades of experience and success, and strong solutions for mainframe modernization, Micro Focus provides lower costs, decreased risks, with increased speed for the application. This partnership with AWS creates a well-defined, well-architected reference platform to reduce risk, decrease costs and increase speed even further by extending these benefits to the infrastructure and process through a managed service.
Replatform to a mainframe-compatible runtime, or refactor applications to modern agile services. Whether you need a deeply integrated option, for a large deployment replatforming may be right for you. Or, for isolated, smaller deployments, rehosting may be best. Decide what is best for your organization.
Analyze migration readiness through application intelligence and analysis for migration teams and developers. Utilize the development, build, and test tools for modernization projects. This allows you to assess and identify gaps and determine what services to map and migrate, making the migration process more straightforward, with less risk. Once implemented and tested, you can deploy Mainframe workloads to a managed environment (including AWS). The operations of running the production environment and update processing is understood and repeatable, meaning it does not need to be reinvented for every project. This is more scalable and represents an approved, best-in-class solution.
When migrating applications to the cloud, implement enterprise-level security. This includes, strong authentication, including Multi Factor Authentication (MFA), authorized access using the principle of least privilege, and zero-footprint host access. This ensures that all 3270 data remains in AWS and data privacy regulations are satisfied.
