Arkin Software offers complete migration solution to retire Power Builder Applications. It is a tools based migration framework- comprising of a automated tools; migration methodology; and experienced consultants that facilitate factory-like precision. There are three Converter tools. (a) GUI converter converts legacy GUI into web-structure, RIA technologies or thin-client GUI, with similar look & feel. (b) Code converter converts business logic of the legacy code into equivalent java. (c) DAO converter converts SQL calls into a chosen persistent framework like SPRING JDBC or JDBC. Besides these, there are two extremely important tools. (d) Analyzer: It is this tool that helps us even if there is limited or non-existent documentation and application knowledge. This tool dives through legacy code, builds metrics and relationships to help our team to size and understand the legacy complexity and accurately estimate the migration effort. (e) Traceability Generator: It maps legacy code to converted java code in a spreadsheet format. This traceability matrix serves two purposes: One is to ensure that no legacy code is missed out during conversion; and the other is to facilitate client’s internal teams to catch up with migrated Java code. Arkin Software’s unique approach to migration is architecture-centric. That means, we start with the target architecture and migrate the legacy to that target. Never one-to-one migration. Because, migrated applications must live in production for another 20-25 years, which is possible only if they are built on right architecture. Nobody likes applications that may look like Java, but stink like legacy. Arkin Software offers tools based approach to convert 2-tier client/server applications to 3-tier or multi-tier Java based web architecture. The legacy client/server is a 2-tier application. Business logic and data access is partly coded on the UI side, and partly in the form of stored procedures running on database server. During migration, the code is segregated into different layers like - UI, Business logic, Communication, and DAO layers. The database system can remain the same, or that can also be migrated to a different one. If you prefer to have similar GUI after migration, it is possible, as it minimizes end-user re-training. If you prefer to have adaptive RIA UI to work on multiple form-factor devices, that is possible too.

Legacy Systems Migration – A Business Imperative
• Technology obsolescence / End of support announcements
– In reality, its end of technology, with/with-out official EoS
• Dwindling availability of skilled resources, for continued changes to the application
– Present availability ratio is less than 1:100;
– projected to get even worse - No new inflow; Retiring workforce
• Very high cost of legacy application maintenance / High TCO
– Vintage cars is an expensive hobby.
• Incompatibility for the evolving landscape
– Cloud
– Mobile
• Adoption of Open Source Software
– Low TCO
– Large development/support community and efficient frameworks

More to it than Automation Tools
Almost Never a 1:1 Migration
 Architectural differences between Legacy and Java
 CUI Differences – Function keys
 Restructuring of Code
 Performance bottlenecks
Inefficient Code in Legacy
 SQL code in the client side
 Pure business validations in procedures
 Not following OOAD principles
 Bottlenecks in code
 Dead Code/ Unused Code
Implementation of New Features
 Security features (coding security: Spring IOC)
 New or modified functionalities
Legacy Concepts Do Not Always Map
 Linear Programming
 Character User Interface
 Implicit Functionalities
Legacy Issues
 Tight coupling between UI & Business Logic
 Poor coding practices
 Little or no documentation
Legacy Migration is:
 About retaining and extending the value of your mission critical application(s)
 Enable business processes to gain significantly from new technologies

How to go about?
• Perform Application Portfolio Analysis - bi-furcated by each application
– Establish complete
• inventory of legacy applications of both online & batch programs
• Application flow including of dependencies
– Identify all external integrations
• Database based / Flat file based / Message Brokers etc
– Perform Application Assessment
• Generate code metrics
• Perform run-time analysis
• Establish usage metrics
– Discuss migration objectives and Technology Choices
• Establish the dependency flow
– From lowest / independent application to highest dependent application
– Pickup the least dependent application as pilot
• Migration Choice[s]
– Independent applications  Migrate code and DB and deploy into production
– Dependent applications
• Migrate code first, keep DB as is and deploy into production
• After all applications are moved into production then migrate the DB to Oracle
