IMS Replacement at Gothaer: In Time – In Budget – In Scope
Gothaer Systems migrates its IBM IMS Databases to IBM Db2 together with Delta Software Technology.
Automatically migrating from IBM IMS/DB to IBM Db2 was Gothaer Systems' task. The goal of operating only one database system on the mainframe brought Gothaer Systems and Delta Software Technology together. Delta offered the solution of know-how, suitable tools and services for this task. By building a tailor-made factory with the AMELIO Modernization Platform, the necessary steps for the transformation could be implemented automated, well calculated and at low risk.
“By migrating from IBM IMS/DB to IBM Db2 together with Delta, we have successfully mastered the next big step in the ‘Smarter Mainframe’ project.”
Burkhard Oppenberg, CIO, Gothaer Systems

Provinzial realizes complete migration from IBM IMS/DB to IBM Db2 with Delta
With the tools and services from Delta Software Technology, Provinzial Rheinland finished the complete application and data migration from IBM IMS/DB to IBM Db2, automated and securely, of over 75 IBM IMS databases and over 36,000 artefacts.
Due to the volume of the Provinzial application systems, the amount and complexity of the required changes, the tight schedule as well as their experiences with the manual conversion of some programs and databases, Provinzial decided on a tailor-made and fully automated solution with the tools from Delta Software Technology.

Hunting the Technology Zoo
Automated Technology Change with AMELIO Modernization Platform
Does your application also contain technology crocofants or dinosaurs?
So, does it contain different technologies for the same task or outdated technologies that make it difficult to maintain and further develop the application efficiently or even prevent modernization?
Then we will show you here how we can tidy up your technology zoo with AMELIO and consolidate and exchange technologies in an automated way - parallel to ongoing operations.

Newsletter December 2021
Newsletter - Thursday, 16th December 2021
Dear Reader,
Almost 50 years ago, the computer scientist Dr. Reinhold Thurner presented the first ideas for the automation of application development using software generators. This resulted in one of the most successful tools for the generative development of COBOL and PL/I applications: Delta ADS. We're proud to be celebrating Delta ADS's 45th anniversary this year.
The fact that ideas, concepts, tools and applications often prove themselves sustainable much longer than expected not only applies for Delta ADS. Many large, complex and mission-critical applications that have grown over decades constitute the core of our customers' successful business operations.
Find out today how you can automatically recover the knowledge about these applications with AMELIO Logic Discovery.
At the SVA Mainframe Days, we recently presented how technologies in such complex applications can be replaced automatically and in parallel with ongoing operations.
We are curious: What is your dream environment for ADS, COBOL and PL/I?
We hope you enjoy reading,
Your Delta Software Technology Team
