Editor's Notes
- #3 Experience in consulting: 5 years large scale migration projects
- #4 So now that we have an overview of Konveyor and how it helps on the adoption of Kubernetes, let’s dig deeper into the application modernization and migration use case and discuss Tackle, our open source tool for that.
- #5 The vision is simple yet ambitious
- #6 Safely is stressed. For the refactoring scenario there is no magic. Tackle is not so much about automating migration like Crane and Forklift. But rather about providing as much insight as possible for the adoption leads to make informed decisions and giving migrators guidance and some degree of automation for the adaptations that might be required on applications. Reduce risks and make the migration and modernization process measurable and predictable.
- #26 The application inventory and pathfinder are just the beginning. As we said before, there is an ongoing collaboration between Red Hat and IBM for the Tackle projects. IBM research is going to share a lot of new projects under the Tackle umbrella in the upcoming months, and we will also be contributing another additional piece for application analysis. We wanted to address briefly some of these projects; First of all we have Windup, the upstream project behind the current Migration Toolkit for Applications, that we will be contributing to Konveyor in the upcoming months. To keep things short, Windup analyzes application source code and binaries to determine the gap to migrate to a given target platform. In our case, it will be especially useful for application containerization. Containerization assessment uses AI to be able to understand a description of an application using natural language and suggest the most suitable container image to containerize the application. The Automated Configuration Discovery is able to locate and transform configuration files to adapt them to a target runtime, for example when migrating Spring Boot applications to Quarkus. The Data Intensive Validity Advisor or DiVA analyzes the data layer of applications and is capable of detecting dependencies to different data stores and distributed transactions. Finally, the Test Driven Modernization tool allows to certify that an application behaves the same way after migrating by creating a functional profile of the application using unit tests that get automatically generated.
