What Language Portability Solutions Does

Automated Program Migration

At the heart of our services is the automated migration engine. Using our experience in compiler development, language translation, virtual runtime environments and multi-platform support we have created an automated tool that migrates 99.9% of your COBOL source code to C# without need for manual intervention or correction.

Automated Database Migration

We have developed a set of tools that can automatically migrate your DB2 schemas to SQL Server DDL. In addition, we can automatically generate programs that will unload the data from DB2 tables and populate the corresponding SQL Server tables. If you use VSAM we can also generate programs that migrate VSAM data.

Server Support Utilities

One of the most striking differences between mainframe applications and applications running on a Windows server is the range of technologies available to manage the user’s interaction with the application. In order to minimize the impact of the transition from mainframe to server migrations while, at the same time, modernizing the user interaction to the maximum extent possible, we have developed a series of Server Support Utilities. These utilities include a VSAM emulator using an underlying SQL Server database and a Web Transaction Server utility that manages the interactions between users and application programs.

C# Developer Orientation

We provide a set of runtime objects and methods that are used to insure that migrated COBOL programs are efficient and functionally identical when running in C#. We can provide your C# developers orientation and training to insure they get the most out of these facilities when enhancing and maintaining your migrated C# application.

William Calcagni and Robert Camacho developed fourth generation languages and mainframe productivity tools that created COBOL programs for mainframes as well as code for three-tiered applications that ran on both UNIX and Windows. These tools were used in Fortune 500 and Global 1000 companies such as the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund, Quaker Oats, Keebler Cookies, Toys ‘R’ Us, Dai-ichi Kongyo Bank, the French Mutuelle Générale de la Police and the Government of Belgium. Bill and Bob have once again combined their talents in Language Portability Solutions to offer this powerful and unique service.
