Transoft Announces IBM iSeries (System i5) to Microsoft .NET Modernisation Path.


5 March 2007 - Transoft, a leader in helping companies evolve their existing legacy applications, announced today its partnership with SYKORA-ML GmbH to distribute ML-iMPACT in the United Kingdom and North America. ML-iMPACT provides an automated conversion from IBM iSeries and System i RPG applications to Microsoft .NET.

Driven by a lack of skilled resources, reduced cost of ownership and platform standardisation, many iSeries users are investigating the options available to take their RPG applications to a more standard architecture. Transoft has over 20 years' experience in providing legacy modernisation solutions. Its proven methodology coupled with a wide variety of modernisation products has allowed Transoft to address the evolution of multiple legacy platforms and applications.

ML-iMPACT is the result of a progressive development of iSeries modernisation tools by German company SYKORA-ML. With several successful conversions completed in Europe, ML-iMPACT provides an automated means of converting RPG and CL code to C# and DB2/400 data to Microsoft SQL Server.

Geoff Baker, Transoft's Managing Director, said “This partnership is good news for iSeries and System i users. The combination of the conversion power of ML-iMPACT and the modernisation experience of Transoft means that iSeries users are no longer presented with confusing, piecemeal, ‘do-it-yourself’ modernisation options. The Transoft-SYKORA solution provides iSeries customers with a project-based approach to moving applications to Microsoft .NET, ensuring that all aspects of the modernisation project are understood, planned for, and addressed in the conversion process.”

“We are pleased to see continued industry support for the Microsoft.NET platform,” said Spyros Sakellariadis, Director, Midrange Alliance Program at Microsoft Corp. “Transoft is bringing its industry expertise to bear on the IBM System i marketplace, providing customers with the option of Microsoft Windows as a cost-effective platform for modernising their legacy environments.”

Thomas Sykora, Chief Executive of SYKORA-ML commented, “We chose Transoft as our partner because of its vast experience and great reputation in the UK and US application modernisation markets. We are already seeing the benefits of the partnership, with the two companies working closely to provide the very best modernisation solution to iSeries users.”
