CodeNavigator provides a structured, guided transformation journey, ensuring a seamless modernization experience with minimal disruption, maximum efficiency, and a future-ready architecture. Recognizing that every organization is at a unique stage in its modernization journey, CodeNavigator offers three strategic pathways — Retain, Refactor, and Reimagine — allowing you to modernize at your own pace while optimizing cost, risk, and long-term scalability.
Not ready to move off the mainframe or give up COBOL? CodeNavigator’s AI-driven SmartDoc thoroughly
analyzes, maps, and documents your COBOL applications, providing deep insight into their structure and
dependencies. Then, our deterministic AI refactors and optimizes your existing code, making applications
faster, easier to maintain, consume fewer resources, and reduce MIPS costs—all while preserving business
logic.
Why it matters:
- Lower MIPS consumption and reduce costs without changing your business logic.
- AI-driven analysis & optimization for better maintainability and performance.
- Future-proof your applications so you’re ready for the next step—on your terms.
Unlike traditional “lift and shift” approaches, CodeNavigator ensures true modernization by converting COBOL
into clean, maintainable, object-oriented Java—bundled and ready for cloud deployment with open-source
frameworks like Spring Boot and Spring Batch. This enables a seamless transition to any environment, such as
AWS, Azure, IBM Cloud, LinuxONE, or hybrid. Once converted, your applications are fully independent—no
runtime dependencies, no vendor lock-in.
Why it matters:
- Automated COBOL-to-Java transformation with clean, maintainable code.
- No Vendor Lock-In.
- Deploy your applications anywhere.
- Seamless DevOps integration for continuous improvement.
For organizations looking to fully reimagine their applications, CodeNavigator provides a guided path
towards the creation of an optimal cloud-native architecture, ensuring applications are built for the
future.
With Code BluePrint and our AI SME, teams gain instant insights into their modernized applications to design
a modern, scalable architecture with confidence.
Why It Matters:
- CodeNavigator provides deep architectural insights for cloud-native transformation.
- Leverage modern cloud capabilities—microservices, containers, Kubernetes, and serverless computing.
- Ensure functional equivalence while unlocking cloud-native performance advantages.
- AI-powered SME assistance gives teams on-demand technical expertise and application insight.
CodeNavigator is a comprehensive modernization suite with six components that work in harmony to deliver your modernization goals, coordinated by an Agentic AI that is trained on real-world legacy systems and learns and scales with every project to adapt to real world situations. It understands your goals and systems, plans accordingly, coordinates resources, and delivers real results.
SmartDoc
Thoroughly analyzes and documents COBOL code and creates detailed reports on properties such as cyclomatic complexity, dependency maps, business rules, and more. This information is used to create not only comprehensive documentation, but also a queryable knowledge base.
Application Packager
Creates cloud-ready bundles that simplify deployment using open-source frameworks like Spring Boot or Spring Batch. Once converted and deployed, there is no dependency on our products or services—no vendor lock-in.
COBOL Optimizer
Uses the information gathered by SmartDoc to optimize your COBOL code, making your existing applications run faster and more efficiently, delivering immediate cost savings and ROI. It simplifies maintenance, due to both reduced complexity and comprehensive documentation.
Code Blueprint
As an invaluable tool in an architect’s toolkit, Code Blueprint provides AI-driven analysis that maps dependencies, data flows, and execution paths in a clear, human-readable format. It enables architects to deconstruct monolithic COBOL applications, identify modularization opportunities, and design a modern, scalable architecture with confidence—eliminating guesswork, reducing risk, and accelerating reengineering efforts.
Transformer
Uses reliable deterministic AI to automatically convert COBOL to high quality, human-readable Java that is easy to maintain. The converted code does not require any human intervention—no tweaking, fixing, or debugging needed. We guarantee complete functional equivalence and numeric precision, every time.
AI SME
Our AI SME uses the knowledge base created by SmartDoc, along with a foundation of general mainframe and COBOL insights to act as a Subject Matter Expert that can answer both technical and business queries in natural language.
Sandbox CodeNavigator either online or at your location, using either our demo code or your own mainframe artifacts. Take it for a free test drive, kick the tires, even keep the code you convert. We’re that confident you’ll choose us as your modernization partner. Once you understand what we can do, you’ll understand why.
