CloudFrame frees mainframe applications from COBOL, giving customers automated, incremental, low-risk, low-cost ways to transform those applications into fully supportable cloud-native Java. Our products give customers control and the ability to transform mainframe applications fast, freeing them from COBOL and vendor dependency completely and fully. Our flagship product CloudFrame™ attacks these two tough problems by immediately reducing Mainframe execution costs and by providing portability of programs to help a risk-free migration if you choose to do so. Our software engine, in execution mode, enables corporations to shift Legacy workload (COBOL, DB2, VSAM and CICS based) execution from the most expensive CPU on the mainframe to a much cheaper JVM on the Cloud or on the mainframe itself without disruption to the existing business processes and data. Therefore provides a risk-free and disruption-free cost savings opportunity while maximizing years of investment in the legacy. For those looking for a mainframe migration or modernization beyond cost saving, CloudFrame™ provides seamless portability. All converted programs are cloud-native and micro-services enabled. Containerization allows disruption free iteration of modernization effort by mixing and matching new and legacy workload until the desired state is achieved. All this can be done on the Cloud (public or private). Our software engine, in the analysis mode, can provide the simulation of legacy code and provide insights that you otherwise can't get from a static source code analysis. The value proposition is that migrations teams understand EXACTLY what is happening within the code that can be 30+ years old. We have a unique offering and are building up our customer base within the Fortune 1000. Let us show you how this technology works.
