 "Micro Focus Releases Next- Gen Mainframe Migration Tools")
Micro Focus has announced the release of the newest versions of Micro Focus Studio Enterprise Edition (Studio EE) and Server Enterprise Edition (Server EE) v6.0 SP1. The tools deliver enhanced mainframe migration capabilities to companies looking to simplify their IT infrastructures, reduce risk, lower IT costs and deliver more innovative products and services.
Micro Focus Studio EE is a suite of graphical tools that allows users to migrate mainframe business applications to lower cost platforms and supports the entire applications development lifecycle – from analysis to testing. Micro Focus Server EE supports the deployment of the migrated applications on the new platform with virtually no application code changes, making application migration a low-risk, high-performance alternative to re-writes or rip-and-replace strategies.
New functionality includes a unique capability to migrate data to Microsoft SQL Server. The ability to automate data migration to SQL Server means lower risk and increased efficiency as organisations move their applications to more cost-effective environments. In addition, the new releases enable organisations to migrate and re-host PL/I applications, resulting in the ability to further reduce their reliance on the costly mainframe.
Micro Focus Server EE and Studio EE v6.0 SP1 include functionality from Micro Focus Modernization Workbench.
“Businesses today – particularly in this economic climate – are constantly looking for ways to simplify their IT infrastructure, to lower costs, and to do so without sacrificing the ability to deliver innovative new products and services to their customers,” said Stuart McGill, CTO, Micro Focus. “Time and again we’re seeing companies turn to mainframe migration projects to achieve these goals. Our new generation of modernisation and migration tools will help companies complete their migration projects even faster with minimal changes to their applications.”
