Home News Newsletter 2007 Edition 59 AMELIO Reduces Risks and Costs

New technical demands and legal regulations as well as new technologies and modernization projects frequently require the modification of the large productive legacy applications. The necessary mass changes cause high costs and are a risk for the ongoing business operation.

AMELIO Modernization Platform drastically reduces the risks and costs of these modernization and change projects. AMELIO completely automates the change of large IT applications and verifiably cuts down the test expenditure by more than 90%.

Mass Changes in Productive Systems

Changes across all existing applications belong to the permanent tasks of the IT departments in large enterprises. They are initiated by new IT strategies, changed business processes, legal regulations which must be fulfilled to the deadline, and the like.

The more extensive, complex and interconnected the applications are, the higher are the risks and costs of such projects. If thousands of modules of the productive application systems have to be changed – without endangering the ongoing business operation – the answers to the following questions are essential:

  • How can you ensure the consistency and quality of the changes?
  • How do you avoid blocking other projects by the changes and - in reverse – how do you integrate the changes from other projects into the mass changes?
  • How do you guarantee the security and stability of the productive systems?
  • How do you get control over the expenditure, the costs and the time requirement for the testing?
