Migration & Modernization

In this blog post, we’ll show how Bizrate re-architected their platform using Amazon Web Services (AWS) serverless and container services. The modernization achieved 30% faster performance, reduced average page response times to 0.01–0.03 seconds, improved SEO rankings, and created a foundation for future Artificial Intelligence (AI) driven innovations. We’ll walk through their journey from identifying […]

Introduction In this blog we outline options for online and offline data transfer scenarios to AWS. Customers’ migration goals, available network bandwidth speed and reliability, and size of data to be imported, can then guide the choice on which service to use. AWS DataSync is a secure, online service that automates and accelerates moving data […]

For years, cloud migration projects have been slowed by fragmented, manual processes. Discovery required deploying multiple tools and navigating lengthy approvals. Assessments relied on manual analysis or tools requiring significant time. Migration itself depended on manual scripting for wave planning, network conversion, and server orchestration. This end-to-end journey often stretched across many months, delaying cloud […]

In today’s rapidly evolving technology landscape, organizations face mounting pressure to modernize their legacy systems while maintaining operational excellence and controlling costs. Traditional approaches to cloud modernization often require weeks of manual assessment, extensive documentation efforts, and significant development resources—creating bottlenecks that delay time-to-market and increase project costs. However, the emergence of AI-powered development assistants […]

Building on a momentous launch earlier this year, AWS adds new powerful AI capabilities to AWS Transform for VMware migration agent. AWS Transform for VMware understands your business priorities, adapts to your environments, and gives you greater control at every migration step. The agent orchestrates migration processes including dependency mapping, intelligent wave planning, and network […]

Mainframe modernization is necessary for enterprises to increase agility, reduce costs, innovate, and mitigate business risks. Yet organizations face a significant hurdle during modernization: testing is critically important to validate modernized applications behavior, but it typically consumes more than half of project timelines and resources. As enterprises race to modernize their legacy systems, this testing […]

AWS Transform, launched in May 2025, is the first agentic AI service for modernizing mainframe workloads at scale. The AI-powered mainframe agent accelerates mainframe modernization by automating complex, resource-intensive tasks across every phase of modernization from initial assessment to final deployment. You can streamline the migration of legacy mainframe applications, including COBOL, JCL, CICS, Db2, […]

Sessions, workshops, blogposts, and breakthrough announcements Mainframe modernization is critical imperative for enterprises seeking to reduce costs and improve agility, yet traditional approaches to modernization face significant challenges including navigating complex legacy codebases, incomplete or missing system documentation, and the scarcity of specialized mainframe expertise due to a retiring workforce. Generative AI and Agentic AI […]

In this blog post, we outline the AWS approach to modernizing mainframe legacy applications through the reimagine pattern, showcasing how organizations can transform legacy COBOL applications into modern, cloud-native architectures. Organizations are facing urgent imperatives to modernize their legacy mainframe applications due to talent shortages, increasing costs, and restrictions on business agility. AWS supports multiple […]

Legacy mainframe applications are the backbone of some critical business operations across enterprises, yet these systems present significant modernization challenges. While proven reliable over decades, mainframes accumulate substantial technical debt, demand increasingly scarce specialized expertise, and create barriers to rapid innovation and feature deployment.AWS Mainframe Modernization with Rocket Software offers organizations a strategic solution to […]
