Linking Cobol to SOA made easier

Leveraging legacy applications in modern environments such as SOA remains an ongoing issue for enterprises. To help with this transition, BluePhoenix Solutions on September 18 is announcing the release of a platform to redevelop legacy Cobol applications for use in environments such as SOA, Java and C#.

Called BluePhoenix Redevelopment, the product set features a toolset, methodology and services. It is to be showcased at the Gartner Application Development Summit in Phoenix beginning September 25. The company cited Temenos, a Swiss-based provider of integrated core banking systems, as a user. Temenos used the platform to move Cobol applications to Java.

"By redeveloping these applications, our customers will have the ability to operate on less costly hardware and software environments, while maintaining platform and vendor independence," said Andreas Andreades, CEO of Temenos, in a statement released by BluePhoenix.
