Princeton, N.J., USA, June 30, 2023 – CloudFrame, the fast-growing COBOL to Java transformation software company, today announces its partnership with EPAM Systems, Inc., a leading digital transformation services and product engineering company, to provide enterprises and government agencies that rely on COBOL applications with an automated, end-to-end, modernization journey. EPAM’s Mainframe Modernization team will utilize CloudFrame products to accelerate the movement of mainframe workloads to the cloud by leveraging application transformation and migration strategies

Shifting COBOL Compute Workload: GFT and CloudFrame Partner to Reduce Mainframe Costs Now Available on YouTube

June 29, 2023

Organizations that rely on mainframe COBOL applications for mission-critical internal and customer-facing applications are facing significant challenges. The IT professionals needed to maintain these applications are getting harder to find and more expensive to hire. Additionally, the execution cost of delivering long-standing results is increasing yearly. Historical increases for MLC have been around 5% per year, but in 2023, increases are reported to be 8% and, in some cases, as high as 15%. Cost

Moving Mainframe Workload – 4 Use Cases That Deliver Big Results Now Available on YouTube

June 22, 2023

Moving mainframe COBOL workloads makes a lot of sense. Not only do you have the potential for significant cost savings, but you can also take advantage of cloud scalability, provide relief for mainframe capacity issues, and free up budget dollars. Join CloudFrame CEO and founder, Venkat Pillay as he describes CloudFrame’s solutions to move mainframe COBOL workloads, why the cloud is the preferred solution target environment, and four (4) mainframe workload use cases; 1. Last-step

Moving from Greenfield Application Modernization to Bluefield with CloudFrame Renovate

June 21, 2023

In the first three posts in this series, we looked at the commonly-made case for “greenfield” COBOL-to-Java application modernization efforts, the most frequent ways such initiatives go wrong, and how tool-assisted transformation offers a better way to achieving most of the strategic goals companies are hoping for from modernization, at much-reduced levels of risk and opportunity cost. In this final post, we’ll examine how CloudFrame Renovate—the “tool” in “tool-assisted transformation”—delivers on the promise of application

COBOL to Maintainable Java: Innovations that Expand What’s Possible Now Available on YouTube

April 26, 2023

Organizations that depend on mission-critical COBOL applications want the business value of the application without the risk, cost, and constraints of COBOL. They want to modernize these applications to leverage the advantages of cloud infrastructure and ease of innovation. Until now, they had few options for these valuable COBOL applications. • Do nothing and cope with rising risks and costs. • Greenfield rewrites that are expensive and prone to failure. • Code conversions that involve

The Many Ways Greenfield Application Modernization Can Go Wrong

April 21, 2023

In our previous post, we covered the most common reasons why an enterprise faced with a COBOL application modernization challenge might choose to start again from scratch with a “greenfield” requirement, design, and build project. We mentioned some of the risks arising from this approach, and in this second part of our series, we’ll take a closer look at these. Forewarned is forearmed, and being able to understand and explain the potential dangers of greenfield

The Perceived Rewards and Real Risk of Greenfield Application Modernization

April 6, 2023

“Let’s just start fresh.” In the arena of COBOL application modernization, these words have been uttered many times over the years by technologists, business executives, and even board directors. While the phrase does have great power to lift the spirits (at least for a while) of everyone involved in a big, complex project, at CloudFrame we’ve seen the longer-term results of such “new starts” often enough to know that deeper consideration is warranted before embarking

GFT and CloudFrame Partner to Help Industries Say Goodbye to COBOL

The Role of Mainframe Data in a Hybrid Cloud Environment

June 29, 2023

More and more organizations are adopting a hybrid approach to their IT environment. In the context of computing and IT infrastructure, a hybrid environment combines multiple types of resources or technologies, typically involving a mix of on-premises infrastructure, private cloud, and public cloud services. It allows organizations to leverage the benefits of both on-premises and […]
