Managing software licenses in the cloud can be complex, especially when working at scale and looking to leverage licenses you already own. Many customers run Amazon EC2 instances with operating systems like SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES), Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL), and Fortinet. These operating systems include licensing costs bundled into the hourly instance […]

Introduction If you’re migrating code at scale across hundreds of repositories, you need reproducible results across runs. Large language model (LLM)-based agents, by definition, rely on the probabilistic nature of LLMs where each result is generated from a variety of potentially probable outcomes. In a short-horizon task, this nondeterminism is manageable. In a long-horizon task […]

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 […]
