| All types of information system migrations
are difficult, but none are quite as difficult
as migration mission critical applications
to a new host platform. Many of the applications
in use on the HP e3000 today are not available
on other platforms, necessitating an application
change. Because of this companies must evaluate
their current and future business directions
and competitive differentiators, their IT
needs and their business risk. |

products to address the various migration
issues. MB Foster develops MBF-UDACentral
our HP3000 database conversion and data

KSAM,
Allbase
and Eloquence databases to Oracle,
SQL Server, Eloquence or DB2 database, creating
the new data structure and applying rules
to ensure that the data is converted properly.
UDACentral keeps paying back, after migration
it is your data access tool, point and click
your way to creating SQL to access one or
more data structures, extract data, import
data, and save the SQL for repeat use. |

| Not sure that you have the time and resource
to dedicate to migration while continuing
to provide on going users services. You
might consider innovating before migrating
by implementing process to free up time
and resource now but can be moved to the
new environment when it is ready. One way
to do this is to implement a data
mart. By doing this you free IT resources
from daily user reporting needs, and empower
the user to get their own data. As an added
benefit, when the migration project is done
you can move the data mart to the new environment. |

  |
| Surrounding every application environment
there are a collection of "utilities"
which typically complete or help in the
processing of corporate data. Migrating
these tools, and/or their functionality
and files to the target platform can be
challenging. In some cases the tools does
not exist on the new platform requiring
a search for a similar tool. MB Foster knowledge
and expertise in this area has resulted
in being named the choice for surround
code migration by Escalate Retail. |
