Application modernization according to your requirements, parallel to the ongoing operation.
 

Recording: SVA Mainframe Dayz 09.11.2021 (only in german)

Dr. Daniela Schilling (CEO Delta Software Technology) explains sticking points and pitfalls in large modernization projects and shows solutions based on a large project at a leading German insurance company.

SVA Mainframe Dayz 2025

In February 2025, the focus will be on the mainframe again!
A variety of presentations, exciting discussions and, above all, lots of field reports from the world of the mainframe await you on February 18th and 19th, 2025 at the Mainframe Dayz in Wiesbaden.

Delta Software Technology is represented with a lecture. On February 19th, 2025 at 1:10 p.m., Dr. Daniela Schilling presents:

"When the English Dictionary is not enough - Understanding Applications with AMELIO"

Regular maintenance, extensions, clean-ups or modernizations - no matter what the task is, without a thorough understanding of the application there is no chance of success. COBOL language is easy to read, but that alone is not enough to actually understand large and complex applications.
Do you want to know how AMELIO Logic Discovery helps you to regain knowledge about your application by means of automated analyses, abstraction and task-specific views?
Then come to our lecture at the SVA Mainframe Dayz on February 19th in Wiesbaden.

Review SVA Mainframe Dayz 2021

In a monthly event series, the Mainframe SpeakZ, SVA again gave the mainframe a voice. With a diverse mix of customer presentations, industry news, tool updates, and more, SVA keeps you up to date on all things mainframe.

Delta Software Technology was there with a presentation:

"Application modernisation according to your requirements, parallel to ongoing operation"

Dr. Daniela Schilling (CEO Delta Software Technology) explained sticking points and pitfalls in large modernization projects and showed solutions based on a large project at a leading German insurance company.

Contents

The foundation of business-critical applications has often evolved over decades. During this time, the applications were changed and further developed. New technologies were introduced, partly without completely removing the old technologies.

Modernisations such as clean-up, refactoring, technology exchange and standardisation as well as platform migration are necessary to meet new requirements, improve performance and maintainability, and increase the sustainability of the backend applications.

The documentation of the applications and the knowledge about what was implemented and why it was implemented that way has been lost over time.

• So, how do you regain the required implementation knowledge?
• What do you do with the dependencies?
• What about the risks?
• How do you find all the sticking points?
• How do you organise parallel changes and further development?
• What must be tested?
• How do you securely manage (testing) efforts, costs and risks?
• ...

The solution lies in the precisely targeted analysis prior to a modernisation project, the complete automation of the changes and the flexible organisation of the project processes.

Referencing a large project at a leading German insurance company, we show you how you can safely and reliably carry out a complex modernisation of your applications in parallel to ongoing operation in the mainframe area.

"The mainframe is an important component of a modern, holistic cloud strategy. At the Mainframe Technology Workshop 2019, the community will discuss real use cases and important milestones with specialists and customers." (T-Systems)

T-Systems organises a Mainframe Technology Workshop in Ludwigsburg, Germany, on November 12, 2019. At this one-day event, T-Systems brings together customers, partners, experts and industry analysts to discuss top issues of mainframe users and to present solutions. (Conference language is German)

16. Mainframe Technology Workshop
12^th November 2019, Ludwigsburg, Germany

In the breakout session "Application Modernisation in Parallel to Ongoing Operation - That's How It’s Safe", Delta Software Technology, as a partner of T-Systems, will report on the sticking points and pitfalls of these projects and demonstrate solutions using the example of a customer project in the mainframe area.

The foundation of business-critical applications has often evolved over decades. During this time, the applications were changed and further developed. New technologies were introduced, partly without completely removing the old technologies.

Modernisations such as clean-up, refactoring, technology exchange and standardisation as well as platform migration are necessary to meet new requirements, improve performance and maintainability, and increase the sustainability of the backend applications.

The documentation of the applications and the knowledge about what was implemented and why it was implemented that way has been lost over time.

So, how do you determine which parts of your application are relevant to the task? What do you do with the dependencies? What about the risks? How do you find all the sticking points? How do you organise change processes? What needs to be tested? What about parallel changes and further development?…

The solution lies in the precisely targeted analysis prior to a modernisation project, the complete automation of the changes and the flexible organisation of the project processes.

Referencing a customer project in the mainframe area, we show you how you can safely and reliably carry out a complex modernisation of your applications in parallel to ongoing operation.

The 24th Workshop "Software Reengineering & Evolution" of the GI specialist Group Software Reengineering (SRE) took place this year from May 2nd to 4th, 2022.

GI: 24th Workshop Software-Reengineering & Evolution
02.-04. May 2022, Bad Honnef, Germany

Dr. Daniela Schilling presented a concept and the solution as well as its utilisation by Delta's client RDW in order to make applications quickly and safely fit for the future at the 24th Software Reengineering & Evolution workshop of the German Informatics Society's (GI) special interest group on Software Reengineering (SRE):

"A Washing Machine for Software - Automated Clean-up of Technical Debts"

Abstract

RDW has been developing and maintaining vehicle management applications for more than 30 years. The applications work reliably, but over time technical debts have accumulated that make maintenance and further development difficult. The daily business as well as the size and criticality of the application do not allow a manual clean-up of the software. The solution of the problem: a washing machine that automatically cleans the software from the technical debts.
