Part 3 from March 26th, 2025
Review: Webinar Part 3 'ICEBERGS AHEAD: CleanUp - Tidy and clean up applications!'
On March 26, 2025, at 11:00 a.m., the time had come. Part 3 of our webinar series: "ICEBERGS AHEAD: CleanUp - Tidy and clean up applications!" aired and the list of attendees was impressive.
Icebergs are best avoided, as the Titanic taught us over 100 years ago. There are icebergs in application modernization, too. In the third episode of the webinar "Icebergs Ahead," we showed you how you can safely clean up your applications with us.
Anyone who thinks that cleanup is just about finding dead code is thinking too narrowly. We'll go further ahead and provide you with a variety of practical options for cleaning up legacy applications and more in advance of the actual modernization and eliminating technical debt.

Dear Reader,
Do you actually know exactly what your core applications do and how? Is the existing knowledge sufficient for secure and efficient maintenance and further development? Do you feel well equipped for modernization or replacement? No? Then we have solutions for you.
AMELIO Logic Discovery helps you to (re)understand your applications, to pass on knowledge about the applications from one generation of developers to the next and to prepare and successfully implement clean-up, modernization or replacement projects. In the second part of our webinar series “Icebergs ahead!”, we presented knowledge recovery with AMELIO Logic Discovery. At the SVA Mainframe Dayz we will also introduce you to AMELIO Logic Discovery according to the motto “When the English dictionary is not enough - understanding COBOL applications”.
You can refresh and expand your knowledge of the technology with our Delta ADS training courses.
We also invite you to join us for the next part of our webinar series on automated application clean-up.
We hope you enjoy reading.
Your Delta Software Technology Team

Part 2 from January 29th, 2025
Our second webinar 'ICEBERGS AHEAD: DISCOVER – (re)understand applications' took place on January 29th, 2025.
To circumnavigate icebergs, you have to know where they are. The same goes for modernizing applications. For a safe modernization, knowledge about the application is a key factor. You must recognize the following situation: the programmers that originally wrote the COBOL and PL/I applications are not available anymore. The successors, new team or external service providers are responsible for maintenance, modernization or re-implementation. But questions about the legacy applications are often answered with just shrugs.
Icebergs are not depicted on maps and using a pair of binoculars only makes the 10% above the surface visible. Therefor radar and sonar are needed to safely bypass them. To understand application more than just the documentation is needed. In our webinar we have demonstrated, how AMELIO Logic Discovery regains such knowledge from the program sources in an automated process.
