WHITEPAPER

It’s not fun living with PL/I

Companies of all sizes are grappling with ageing, complex systems that are costly to maintain and too inflexible to support new business initiatives. PL/I (Programming Language One) has been used by many organisations, and continues to be actively used in legacy business applications today.

However, because of high maintenance costs and a rapidly shrinking pool for skilled PL/I developers, many organisations are looking for modern alternatives.

In this whitepaper we will:

• Describe four approaches that can be used/applied when dealing with PL/I
• Share a customer success story that resulted in immediate cost savings
• Share how PL/I automated conversion is successfully tested and executed
• Introduce our Automated PL/I Refactoring offering, which allows you to leverage the advantages of modern platforms and development practices
