Mainframe AI Transformation Services leveraging AWS Transform

This offering brings together Accenture’s deep industry expertise and mainframe knowledge through our AI-Powered Mainframe Solution for AWS Transform. The solution uses a unique modernization framework that combines AWS Transform’s Composable Agent architecture with Accenture’s intelligent mainframe modernization agents. These agents automate key activities such as discovery of mainframe artifacts (SMF, CSD, and others), analysis of dependencies (CRUD, job flows, integrations like MQ), and enrichment of documentation through industry cartridges, business rule extraction, and technical details. They also support quality engineering by generating test cases, measuring code coverage, and tracking performance metrics. The framework enables comprehensive assessment, documentation, and migration of legacy mainframe workloads to AWS.

Industry cartridges play a critical role by mapping industry-standard process flows to the client’s existing business rules, accelerating modernization while maintaining alignment with business objectives. Specialized extractors provide deep insights into CICS, IMS, DB2, batch processes, FTP transfers, MQ interactions, web services, and scheduler configurations, ensuring secure integration and compliance. This approach gives delivery teams full visibility and impact analysis, enabling organizations to transform mainframe environments efficiently and unlock the benefits of cloud technology. It is ideal for enterprises seeking a rapid, reliable, and intelligent modernization strategy.

Accenture AI tools enhance AWS Transform capabilities in areas such as:

• Assessment and discovery of mainframe components
• Business rule extraction using industry cartridges
• Analysis of complex batch workflows and schedulers
• Mainframe runtime metrics (SMF)
• Source and data dependency mapping
• Quality engineering, including test case generation, code coverage, and performance metrics
• Wave planning for phased modernization

Beyond mainframe, Accenture offers additional services leveraging AWS Transform to accelerate modernization of other legacy workloads such as .NET and VMware. These services apply the same framework to automate complex tasks like code analysis, refactoring, business rule extraction, migration planning, testing, and deployment.
