Migrating customer workloads to the AWS Cloud typically comprises several phases: migration readiness assessment, migration planning, the actual migration of applications, and post-migration application optimization. Application profiling is a class of technology for guiding customers across migration phases from end to end. Datadog’s application profiling solution provides cross-platform visibility by collecting, aggregating, and visualizing data from on-premises and cloud environments.

Large mainframes have challenging non-functional requirements in order to process large volumes of data and users for core-business workloads. Micro Focus Enterprise Server mainframe capabilities, combined with AWS global infrastructure, provide the quality of service required by large applications. With this solution, enterprises and public institutions deploy mainframe workloads on AWS with high security, high availability, elasticity, and robust system management.

Mainframe proprietary storage solutions such as VTLs hold valuable data locked in a platform with complex tools. This can lead to higher compute and storage costs, and make it harder to retain existing employees or train new ones. When mainframe data is stored in a cloud storage service, however, it can be accessed by a rich ecosystem of applications and analytics tools. Model9 enables mainframe customers to backup and archive directly to AWS.
