Kumaran Approach

 

 

 
Kumaran Systems has developed a highly effective and comprehensive Legacy to J2EE* migration practice. Kumaran has migrated a myriad of applications developed in equally myriad technologies to Java* for a cross-section of clients. Our “Legacy to J2EE*” practice is powered by our internally developed re-engineering workbench webNabler, which helps automate the process of migration to an extent of 30% - 50% of the total migration/re-engineering effort. The extent of automation varies, as inputs are application source specific.
  • Workbench is a collection of tools, each focused on specific source & targets of migrating to J2EE*.
  • Workbench based Automatic migration, as opposed to rewriting, reduces development time because it involves moving to a new system based on business logic, requirements, and functionality that is already well defined.
  • Functional testing efforts are reduced to a great extent as the code is generated automatically based on the original source code.
  • Automatic migration makes for a relatively low risk development project because of the reduction in time.
  • Automatic migration tools accelerate the production of code, after the application has been rebuilt in Java*, acceptance testing, integration, and customization are performed.
Kumaran systems, Java* migration workbench automates the process of migration in a component fashion by addressing various layers of the source application individually. In other words, singular tools help automate the migration of various code components of the source application into the target code. The migrated code is then integrated manually, tested, customized and optimized by augmented manual services.

Solution Features
The following are a few advantages of a webNabler product based migration.
  • Maintenance of Software Investment - By migrating the existing application (instead of rewriting), the organization maintains its software assets and operation procedures.
  • Support for Industry Standards - Moving to the latest industry standards is vital in today’s competitive markets. The converted applications are fully Web Enabled as per the prevailing industry standards, functionally take advantage of new features and support the Web-Deployment of the forms.
  • Efficiency and User-friendliness - The total user interface is re-engineered to suite the target framework making the system very efficient and user friendly.
  • Compliance - The Migrated application code is made compliant to the application framework defined in the target.
  • Cost - The cost of a Migration is much less when compared to redevelopment.
  • Layer demarcation – the solutions sticks to the MVC-2 framework standards. Presentation, business and data access layer are clearly separated.
  • Runtime Library – the migrated J2EE* application does not depend on any runtime library routines (proprietary classes), this ensures that the clients do not have to depend on Kumaran (Vendor Lock-in) for further maintenance.
