AWS Transform for mainframe

The first agentic AI service for modernizing mainframe workloads at scale

Rethink mainframe modernization

AWS Transform accelerates mainframe modernization with the power of agentic AI. Built on AWS’s 19 years of migration experience, the service streamlines core phases of modernization—from initial analysis and planning to code refactoring and migration—cutting modernization timelines from years to months and reducing ongoing mainframe costs. A unified web experience makes cross-team collaboration possible, helping organizations modernize with greater speed, confidence, and control.

End-to-end automation

Streamline code analysis

AWS Transform automates analysis of mainframe codebases and categorizes code components including JCL, BMS, COBOL programs, and copybooks. AI-driven insights identify dependencies and detect missing artifacts—generating visual representations of dependencies alongside key metrics such as lines of code and component classification.

Create comprehensive documentation

AWS Transform generates comprehensive documentation of mainframe applications, capturing business logic summaries, acronym definitions, and context-aware insights. This documentation acts as a structured knowledge base, making it easier for your teams to query and understand applications.

Break down monolithic applications

AWS Transform simplifies modernization and reduces risk by breaking down large, monolithic applications into smaller, manageable domains. Using semantic seeding, it organizes applications into logical domains while advanced dependency detection ensures proper separation of classified code.

Simplify wave sequence planning

Agentic AI-powered automation streamlines migration wave planning, prioritizing transformation phases based on lines of code, business objectives, or dependencies. The unified web platform allows your team to fine-tune migration plans and collaborate across functions.

Intelligently convert code

AI agents, under human supervision, convert legacy COBOL code into modern languages such as Java, while ensuring functional equivalence. With a domain-based approach, AWS Transform modernizes related components together, accelerating the transition to the cloud.
