Modernization Intelligence
Private BetaDecide How to Evolve Your Mainframe
Turn evidence into confident modernization decisions. Evaluate options, establish priorities, and build a practical roadmap grounded in what your mainframe estate actually does.
Modernization Intelligence is in private beta and builds on the application evidence Comprehend produces. Outputs are candidates and priorities for your architects to review, not automated decisions.
What Modernization Intelligence Delivers
Turn a complex mainframe estate into clear priorities and a modernization roadmap grounded in evidence.
01
Evaluate Modernization Options
Compare practical paths for evolving each application using evidence from the current estate.
02
Set Confident Priorities
Identify where to begin and establish priorities based on business importance, complexity, risk, and dependencies.
03
Shared Decision Context
Give technical and business stakeholders a common basis for reviewing modernization options and priorities.
04
Actionable Roadmap
Move forward with a clear modernization roadmap grounded in what your applications actually do.
Reviewable Decision Structure
What a modernization decision includes
Modernization Intelligence organizes a decision for architects and business stakeholders to review. It does not automatically approve a disposition or replace enterprise governance.
Supporting evidence
The capabilities, business rules, dependencies, data flows, complexity, and operational constraints relevant to the choice.
Rationale and assumptions
Why an option is a candidate, which assumptions support it, and what still needs confirmation.
Dependencies and constraints
Upstream, downstream, data, batch, regulatory, and organizational factors that limit or shape the decision.
Recommended sequencing
The order in which applications or capabilities could move, including prerequisites and decisions that must come first.
Reviewer input and status
Comments, corrections, exceptions, and the distinction between a draft candidate, a reviewed finding, and an approved decision.
Application evidence from Comprehend informs the decision. Your architects and stakeholders supply business context, test the assumptions, resolve exceptions, and approve the path forward.
Connected Platform
Understanding informs better decisions
Comprehend establishes the application context. Modernization Intelligence uses that foundation to help teams evaluate options, establish priorities, and plan change.
