CA Telon Migration and Rehosting Challenges

There are many CASE Tools in the legacy world. Amongst them, TELON has one of the best "COBOL" code generators. The generated COBOL code is readily legible, understandable and a good starting point for legacy translations
However, like all code-generated COBOL code, the COBOL code generated from Telon has certain duplications in code and certain "patterns" of operation. A good translation of such code should take these duplications and patterns into account, and following features available in SoftwareMiningh's Translation Toolkit would help to further improve maintenance of the applications
  • removal of unused COBOL Data Structure from each program
  • normalization and reuse of COBOL structures
  • automatic extraction of "Business-Objects" from PROCEDURE DIVISION code



CA-TELON COBOL Migration, Modernization and Rehosting Project Phases

The translation of to Java or C# applications involve
  • Asset Management: Identify all the artifacts required for translation .
  • (Optional) Business Rule Extraction.
  • Translate to target language
  • Database and Data Migratation
  • Migrate JCL / WFL / CL
  • Creation and Population of Test Database
  • System acceptance testing
  • System acceptance testing
  • User Acceptance Testing
  • (Client): Interation 2 Improvements: Screen Redesign, SOA Integration, Cloud Deployments, Coding Improvements and cleanup
