STEP INTO THE FUTURE WITH APPLICATION MODERNIZATION
The Mphasis innovative approach and proprietary tools transform application performance
For enterprises to remain relevant in the new age, the performance of applications must constantly align with rapidly changing software platforms, faster time-to-market requirements, new performance and compliance demands, and technology redundancies.
At Mphasis, we offer a wide range of services that modernize legacy applications and enhance application management. Over 950 consultants, a unique Maintenance2Modernization approach, and a proprietary automation tool—NGTrans—enable us to transform application performance through capability assessment, portfolio analysis, and legacy modernization. In addition, our Source Object and Code Analyzer (SOCA) and COBOL Explorer, Analyzer, and DocuMentor (CEAD) tools work with codes that are compliable without errors and generate customizable MIS reports for code stocks.
Mphasis offers such services for legacy applications that have substantial knowledge but little documentation, and where original authors are not available and application documents are needed to help architects, designers, developers, and testers.
Migrating from a mainframe legacy platform can help your company become more agile and responsive. We offer specialized mainframe migration solutions, with years of proven experience in application and platform migrations.
Migrating client/server applications that are developed in Visual Basic 6.0, PowerBuilder, Oracle Forms, Delphi, and MS Access to the respective target .Net/ JEE platforms using various tools and accelerators.
We offer a unique approach that simultaneously modernizes applications and optimizes maintenance costs and efforts. This approach reduces total cost of ownership, offers near-immediate responses to business needs, and rationalizes and modernizes an enterprise’s application portfolio.

NGTrans is our proprietary tool that manages migrations of legacy applications automatically. The tool automatically extracts user interface patterns, business logic, and data logic from legacy applications and maps them to the target environment and architecture. It then generates target code blocks for the new environment.
Source Object and Code Analyzer (SOCA) is an automated source object and code analyzer tool for Visual Basic 6, C++, FORTRAN, Oracle Forms, PowerBuilder, Delphi, and COBOL. It works with codes that are compilable without any error and generates customized MIS reports for code stocks within the area of application assessment and sizing.
CEAD (COBOL Explorer, Analyzer and DocuMentor) is a code analyzer, explorer, and DocuMentor for ‘Mainframe COBOL.’ These documents could be used for the purpose of application modernization, deploying the rules in other platforms and of course for maintenance and enhancement.
• Shorter delivery cycle times
• Re-useable application code patterns
• Easy implementation
• Better user interfaces
• Highly customizable and configurable to align with individual projects based on architecture
• Significant cost savings
• Minimal effort in sizing legacy applications
• Immediate response to clients
• Explores, analyzes, and documents business logic, validations, and process flow
