Introducing the AveriSource Modernization Use Case Video Series

As businesses continue to embrace digital transformation across their portfolio, application modernization has become a critical initiative for staying ahead in an increasingly competitive market. The need to modernize enterprise systems, improve operational efficiency, and enhance customer experiences is no longer optional—it’s essential for business survival. To help enterprises navigate these legacy modernization challenges and accelerate their IT transformation journey, AveriSource is excited to introduce our Application Modernization Use Case Video Series.

This new video series provides a comprehensive look at how the AveriSource Platform™ can streamline your mainframe and midrange modernization efforts across a broad spectrum of use cases. Whether you're focused on application assessment, business rules extraction, or reducing technical debt, AveriSource offers the tools and expertise to help you successfully transform your technology infrastructure. The new video series includes twelve different use cases, so lots to explore. Let’s take a closer look at a few of those use case topics together…

AI-Powered Accelerated Rewrite

One of the standout features of the AveriSource Modernization Use Case Video Series is our AI-Powered Accelerated Rewrite approach. Legacy applications can be complex and cumbersome to modernize, but with the right strategy, organizations can re-architect and re-engineer their systems much faster. The Accelerated Rewrite leverages advanced AI-driven tools that focus on the critical parts of your application, using technologies such as application discovery, business rules extraction, and code transformation.

Unlike traditional methods that require line-by-line refactoring, Accelerated Rewrite modernizes only the parts of your application that matter most to your business. This

targeted approach significantly reduces the time and effort involved, allowing your organization to achieve its modernization goals faster, with less risk, and at a lower cost.

Reducing Technical Debt & Improving Code Quality

Technical debt is a common challenge faced by many businesses, particularly those with long-standing legacy systems. The concept of technical debt refers to the accumulation of code issues, errors, or shortcuts taken during development that may compromise the long-term quality and reliability of a system. Over time, this debt can become increasingly difficult and expensive to address.

The AveriSource video series delves into strategies for reducing technical debt and improving code quality. We provide insights into how businesses can tackle these challenges head-on, ensuring that their applications are not only modernized but also robust and scalable. By reducing technical debt, organizations can improve the overall reliability of their systems, leading to higher code quality, lower maintenance costs, and a more sustainable IT infrastructure.

Application Maintenance & Optimization

Modernization isn’t a one-time effort; it’s an ongoing process. In the Application Maintenance & Optimization segment, the series highlights how businesses can continuously update and improve their applications to ensure they remain competitive in the marketplace. Whether through regular software updates or the integration of new strategies, keeping your systems optimized is crucial to maintaining operational efficiency.

This segment emphasizes how AveriSource’s tools can help businesses monitor, update, and optimize their applications on an ongoing basis, ensuring that their systems are always performing at their best.

Accelerated Onboarding & Knowledge Transfer

In the fast-paced world of business, the ability to quickly onboard new employees and transfer crucial knowledge is vital for maintaining productivity. The Accelerated Onboarding section of the series demonstrates how AveriSource supports businesses in efficiently integrating new hires and transferring key knowledge about application management.

Additionally, for companies that may not have the in-house expertise to manage their applications, AveriSource helps facilitate Application Management Services Takeover, where third-party service providers step in to handle monitoring and maintenance tasks. This approach alleviates the burden on internal IT teams, allowing them to focus on more strategic initiatives.

Streamlining with Software Stack Consolidation

Another critical area covered in the video series is Software Stack Consolidation & Replacement. Organizations often use multiple tools and platforms that can lead to redundancies and inefficiencies. AveriSource’s approach helps businesses streamline their technology stack by consolidating and replacing proprietary utilities and third-party software products, ultimately unlocking significant cost savings and improving the efficiency of their IT infrastructure.
