AWS Transform for Mainframe Release

AWS Transform for mainframe now delivers a connected, traceable reimagine experience from assessment through code generation. Enterprises running z/OS COBOL and PL/I workloads can now assess their portfolio, identify discrete business functions, extract business rules, generate development-ready requirements, and produce traceable cloud-native code in a single workflow.

The experience includes:

  • Portfolio Assessment: Identifies and catalogs discrete business functions.
  • Reimagine Workflow: Creates a connected path from portfolio analysis through code generation.
  • Development-Ready Requirements: Generates requirements with full traceability, integrated with Kiro and other IDEs.
  • Interactive Documentation: Generates documentation for any requirement or code directly in the IDE.
  • Traceability: Every requirement traces back to the source code for auditing purposes.

What to do

  • Assess your mainframe portfolio using AWS Transform for mainframe.
  • Identify discrete business functions and extract business rules.
  • Generate development-ready requirements and traceable cloud-native code.
  • Utilize interactive documentation in your IDE for better traceability.
