AveriSource Discover

The AveriSource Discover package empowers organizations with in-depth insights into their legacy application’s architecture, data handling, and code interdependencies. By unraveling program relationships, data storage utilization, and execution paths, the Discover package facilitates informed decision-making and efficient project planning throughout the modernization process, ensuring a smooth transition and seamless integration with other systems. In addition, the Discover package contains all the benefits of the Inventory package.

Highlights

Unravel application architecture and data handling: Get insights into program relationships, data storage utilization, and database complexity, to better understand application architecture and how data is managed.
Understand code interdependencies and execution paths: By exposing system dependencies and their impact on various business aspects, pinpoint distinct execution paths and code interdependencies, ensuring informed project planning.
Analyze data handling and migration requirements: Understand the data sources referenced by the legacy application and the work needed to move to the target environment or create a new application, facilitating a smoother transition.
Ensure no functionality is lost: By capturing the input and output of the existing application, compare it with any new or replacement application, guaranteeing that no functionality is lost during the transition to a replacement application.
Manage upstream and downstream interactions: Handle downstream and upstream interactions for retired legacy applications, ensuring seamless integration with other systems.
