LegacyJ runs CICS COBOL applications on J2EE Application Servers

SAN JOSE, CA (PRWEB) June 12, 2003 -- LegacyJ Corporation announces LegacyJ Transaction Platform liberating CICS COBOL applications from historic system dependencies.

LegacyJ Transaction Platform is an enterprise transaction environment permitting CICS COBOL applications to make use of J2EE technology while maintaining important security and recovery features required in current systems. LegacyJ Transaction Platform is the cohesive, flexible, enterprise solution that allows existing business processes to use and to fully exploit J2EE based technologies.

LegacyJ Transaction Platform operates in conjunction with LegacyJ PERCobol to free existing transaction based COBOL applications from a single system implementation. LegacyJ demonstrates value by reducing in the total cost of ownership, repurposing CICS for web deployment and opening business software applications to new Java based technologies. The LegacyJ solution delivers quick results with liberated applications rehosted in very little time (hours & days) versus the historic months and years of a rewrite.

The ability to move existing CICS applications onto any application server in just a matter of hours or days is very impressive", says Chuck Townsend President of LegacyJ. Prior to the LegacyJ Transaction Platform, the alternates were to 'stay put or 'undertake a timely and expensive migration project. LegacyJ unlocks CICS and COBOL business applications without loosing the capabilities of the existing application".
