Mainframe Modernization with AWS (Blu Age) vs. Softchoice

It is well suited for those legacy applications where the business is not running complex financial applications. It is well suited for transport, retail, insurance, and airlines domain. It's possible to convert these legacy applications into moderns one's. There won't be much impact here. It can be avoided for the financial domain applications as it requires deep study of logic, interfaces and dependencies.

Softchoice is my go-to reseller for all things related to licensing. They have skilled resources available for many complicated enterprise licensing needs.

• Would not recommend this for complex banking applications.
• Banking applications and business logic is stringent. Not an easy job to perform without running the test cases for millions of functionality.
• To get success in transforming the banking applications, Blu Age has to think differently. They need to automate test cases within the tool to know the success rates. Business logic or code might give other results after conversion. Need to look into this aspect too.

AWS Blu Age has technical team with rich mainframe experience and background. They know what business is expecting and how they going to deliver it. The support team is brilliant and contributes a lot in making decisions. AWS was the pioneer in mainframe migration services and there was no doubt in their offerings. That why we stick to them from the beginning.
