Tandem HP NonStop COBOL Migration
Semantic Designs can provide your organization with highly accurate automated conversion of legacy HP NonStop COBOL applications running on Tandem Mainframes to a C# .NET or Java platform runing on a server or in a cloud environment. Our HP NonStop COBOL translator is built on Semantic Designs' advanced configurable compiler technology The DMS™ Software Reengineering Toolkit
With DMS, we are able to translate legacy programming technologies at a fraction of the cost and time of alternative approaches. For example, in our first HP Nonstop COBOL migration we were able to achieve 99% automated code conversion in just 60 days on 2+ million lines of COBOL and SCOBOL code. The translator replaced the HP NonStop Enscribe database access with SQL, while also performing a number of code refactorings for improved code maintainablity.
