RFD successfully worked with legacy customers to mine mature business rule bases in established applications so they can be documented, understood and modernized or re-engineered.
In one engagement, RFD converted Adabas/Natural and COBOL on MVS/ESA to SQL Server/Java on Windows with tremendous success, saving the large federal customer significant ongoing licensing and operations costs.
In other engagements, RFD has converted green-screen or screen-scraper solutions to use GUI windows-based interfaces and a modern RDBMS database.
RFD can web-enable any application, preserving or modernizing any combination of the 3 layers:
- User Interface
- Business Logic / Rules
- Database / back end
RFD can work with MVS-OS/390-z/OS, UNISYS, any Unix such as Solaris, AIX, HPUX, Linux (midrange or mainframe), VM, or other vendor systems requiring modernization.
