Migrate your IBM CICS Transaction Gateway to Apigee – proven, fixed-scope, trusted
Yes, this migration is a well-understood project. Here is how it works: We decouple your distributed client systems from legacy CICS Transaction architectures using world-class API management – with fixed scope
The lowest-cost way off IBM CICS Transaction Gateway: our migration tooling automates the repetitive work —you pay senior engineers for judgment, not keystrokes.
How we support IBM CICS Transaction Gateway → Apigee after migration
- ✓Fixed-scope project by senior platform engineers
- ✓Decouple client systems from CICS architectures
- ✓Vendor support stays active on your timeline
- ✓Third-party support covers most legacy issues
- ✓40-70% savings on legacy platform renewals
- ✓24/7 US-based support throughout your move
Legacy CTG lacks API management capabilities
Advanced API monetization, throttling, and analytics are not supported by legacy CTG. Your platform team cannot deliver the speed competitors have.
Pressure to reduce mainframe footprint
Physical mainframe footprints must shrink. Your data center costs are rising, and cloud standardization is mandatory – but the migration feels risky.
Security integration complexity
Mainframe security (RACF) does not translate cleanly to OAuth2. Without a trusted middleware bridge, the project stalls.
IBM CICS Transaction Gateway → Apigee migration — your questions answered
How do you actually migrate from CTG to Apigee?+
Yes. The project is well understood. Our senior engineers first audit your CTG configuration, then build Apigee proxies that replicate the same Transaction flows. The legacy CTG remains under vendor support as long as your contract is active. Timeline: 8-12 months.
What about mainframe security (RACF) during the move?+
RACF security does not map directly to OAuth2. We deploy a lightweight middleware bridge that translates credentials during the transition. Your mainframe stays protected. The bridge is removed once the Apigee migration is complete.
Do we have to renew our CTG contract while migrating?+
No. If your vendor renewal lapses mid-project, our independent third-party support covers most operational issues on the legacy CTG platform. This removes the pressure to pay a full renewal just to buy migration time.
What budget and timeline should we plan for?+
Typical budgets range from $150,000 to $850,000 depending on the number of integrations and existing proxy infrastructure. We provide a fixed scope – no surprises.
Post-migration: Apigee proxy maintenance & error analytics
After migration, we maintain and optimize your Apigee proxies. Our post-migration service includes proxy maintenance, policy optimization for performance, and runtime error analytics. You keep the efficiency gains. Ready to decouple from CICS?
