Introducing The Astadia FastTrack Factory™

Astadia is the market leading mainframe modernization consulting, technology and systems integration boutique. A worldwide tech-enabled consulting firm, we specialize in moving IBM and Unisys mainframe applications and databases to distributed and cloud platforms. Completing our first mainframe migration project in 1994, Astadia has successfully migrated more than 300 customers from the mainframe to the cloud or distributed platform of their choosing.

In March 2021, Astadia announced the acquisition of Anubex, the market leader in refactoring, to complement Astadia’s replatforming capabilities. This acquisition brings industry leading products to the Astadia solution set to automate the refactoring and testing of legacy systems. The development of these products started well over 20 years ago, and today includes coverage for legacy technologies such as COBOL, Assembler, IDMS and Natural ADABAS that can be migrated to, among others, Java or C# in combination with all the leading SQL-databases. The resulting applications are ready for deployment in the target platform of choice.

The possibility to offer these solutions through The Astadia FastTrack Factory model ensures a successful project for both clients and partners alike. The Factory is a collection of tools, process and technology to accelerate and standardize a successful mainframe migration project. The platform allows both partners and clients to benefit from the extensive experience and industry leading software products that Astadia offers worldwide.

The benefits clients and partners realize from leveraging the Astadia FastTrack Factory include:

> Greatly accelerated time to market, often reducing a typical project duration by up to 90%.

> Risk minimization: benefiting from our proven migration methodology, built over 30 years and implemented for more than 300 clients.  

> Industry leading automated technology and tooling ensures a standardized migration process  

The location of the FastTrack Factory™ can be established anywhere, at the location of choice for the partner or client. The objective of the factory is to achieve a successful and timely migration project while prioritizing a focus on risk and cost minimization.

The platform industrializes the process of migrating and testing legacy applications, delivering migrated and technically tested applications, characterized by high quality and short elapse times. To achieve this, the Factory builds upon clear processes and powerful automated migration and testing tools: CodeTurn, DataTurn, TestMatch and DataMatch.
