Boston, MA, United States [Business Wire] -- Astadia, the market-leading software-enabled mainframe migration company, today shared its business growth highlights for the first half of 2022. The company delivered strong results building on the momentum of the mainframe modernization market growth.

Key to driving growth in the first half of 2022 was increasing demand for application modernization and mainframe migration services, as enterprises and public agencies accelerate their digital transformation to stay competitive in the market. The legacy market also raised a lot of interest from cloud providers and system integrators who are looking for scalable solutions to support their clients’ mainframe-to-cloud transition.  

In additionto digital transformation drivers, escalating licensing fees for mainframe products and diminishing of maintenance support are forcing moreand more companies to migrate applications running on very expensive software. Shrinking talent pool is another decisive factor to move away from the mainframe.

More than 70% of global Fortune 500 companies use mainframes to run their core business functions and need the ability to quickly and safely migrate their legacy applications and data to more modern platforms on premise or in the cloud. To support this process, Astadia developed the FastTrack Factory, a software platform that automates the process of moving IBM and Unisys mainframe applicationsand databases to distributed and cloud computing platforms. It has a broadcoverage of legacy technologies such as COBOL, Assembler, CA IDMS, Natural, and ADABAS that can be migrated to, among others, Java or C# in combination with all the leading SQL databases.

“The first half of 2022 confirms the growing need for enterprises and government agencies to become more agile, sustainable and competitive by modernizing their legacy applications and migrating to the cloud,” said Scott G. Silk, CEO and Chairman of Astadia. “By licensing the Astadia FastTrack Factory to clients and partners, we were able to provide them with a complete, fully automated solution that is scalable and maintainable.”

The company’s highlights of 2022 include new strategic partnerships, business models, services, and business growth.
