One of the biggest challenges to modernizing and transforming legacy applications has been to understand their true internal structure and how this might be related to performance or functional issues. Simply applying more power to the underlying infrastructure may yield only short-term benefits and may be potentially expensive.

Introducing HP Visual Intelligence Tools

HP is pleased to offer an innovative solution to your apps challenges. By developing a suite of the Visual Intelligence Tools, which offer the unique opportunity to “see inside” the application. You are now able to understand its structure and architecture, quickly pinpointing problem areas. The tools provide an efficient means to quickly understand the composition of legacy application, and a level of insight not previously possible, such as:

• HP Modernization Profile – Analyzes an application’s composition so you can select areas that may be key contributors to high cost and low levels of flexibility.
• HP Clone Set Analyzer – Identifies duplicate code to avoid repetition of modernization efforts and provide economies of scale to reduce costs.
• HP Clone Pattern Analyzer – Reveals hidden patterns of code reuse to help group together similar applications and ensure tasks are not duplicated.

From this legacy code analysis, interviewing legacy subject matters experts, and a legacy infrastructure review, we will develop a high-level Modernization Opportunity Report that contains:

• Recommendations for modernization strategies.
• Suggestions for next steps including the appropriate detailed assessments for individual modernization strategies.
• Detailed results of legacy application code analysis from the Visual Intelligence Tools.

Getting started with HP Application Transformation Services

HP offers a Modernization Opportunity Assessment that uses Visual Intelligence to identify opportunity areas. This assessment offers you access to HP-EDS legacy infrastructure and applications experts, who will conduct a high-level, strategic assessment of your current legacy environment. Our objective is to recommend applications and infrastructure modernization strategies which will result in lower total cost of ownership (TCO), improved information technology (IT) efficiency and better business agility. HP can help you get started on your Transformation Journey. Our 1-day Modernization Transformation Experience workshop will help you "experience" what it takes to re-align your IT and business through applications.
