Aging IBM Power hardware reaches end‑of‑life

Physical systems fail and are expensive to replace. You need a cloud path today.

Retiring RPG talent leaves custom logic vulnerable

The experts are leaving. Your business rules must be preserved and modernized.

Exorbitant IBM SWMA renewal costs strain budgets

Spending 40‑70% less on legacy support frees capital for your cloud initiative.

IBM i → Microsoft Azure migration — your questions answered

How do you handle custom RPG logic?+

We refactor RPG into modern .NET or Java running on Azure, preserving all business rules without rewriting from scratch.

What about Db2 Logical Files and CL scripts?+

Our engineers convert Db2 Logical Files to Azure SQL views and CL scripts to Azure Automation runbooks for seamless operation.

Can we keep our IBM i running during the migration?+

Yes. Your vendor support remains active as long as your contract is active. If it lapses, our third‑party support covers most operational issues while you finish the move.

How long does a full IBM i to Azure migration take?+

Typically 12‑24 months depending on complexity. We deliver a fixed scope and timeline upfront so you can plan with confidence.
