Infinite i is a comprehensive suite of compilers, utilities, and operating system services designed to facilitate the migration of applications developed in RPG or COBOL for the AS/400 environment to modern cloud platforms such as AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud. By enabling source code-level migration, Infinite i allows businesses to recompile and execute their legacy applications natively on these cloud services, preserving existing functionalities without extensive code rewrites.
Key Features and Functionality:
- Source Code-Level Migration: Facilitates the transition of RPG or COBOL applications from AS/400 systems to cloud platforms by recompiling the original source code.
- Infinite Deployment Environment: Provides a runtime environment that ensures recompiled applications operate seamlessly on AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud, mirroring their original performance on AS/400 systems.
- AS/400 Database Replication: Includes a complete replication of the AS/400 database (DB2/400, allowing applications to function as they did on their original platform without significant code modifications.
- Cloud Compatibility: Supports deployment on major cloud platforms, offering scalability and flexibility for modern IT infrastructures.
Primary Value and Problem Solved:
Infinite i addresses the challenge of modernizing legacy AS/400 applications by providing a cost-effective and efficient migration path to contemporary cloud environments. This solution protects the substantial investments businesses have made in their existing applications and development teams, while reducing operational costs associated with maintaining outdated hardware. By enabling rapid migration with minimal risk, Infinite i ensures business continuity and positions organizations to leverage the scalability and advanced features of cloud platforms.
