Accelerate .NET modernization with agentic AI
AWS Transform for .NET accelerates large-scale modernization from .NET Framework to cross-platform .NET by up to 4x. With the .NET modernization agent, modernization teams can collaboratively execute larger and more complex projects with consistency, remove Windows license dependencies to reduce operating costs by up to 40%, and enhance code quality, performance, and security.
Benefits
How it works
Modernization teams can use a unified web experience through natural language interaction with the .NET domain-expert agent. Under user supervision, the agent analyzes source code repository for supported project types, versions, and package dependencies, proposing modernization plans. Upon approval, the agent transforms code, executes unit tests, generates natural language transformation summary, and validates Linux readiness—providing continuous milestone and blocker updates. For select applications requiring developer attention, developers can continue the transformation in Visual Studio IDE.
Impact by the numbers
savings in licensing costs
better price performance for your modernized applications to run on AWS Graviton-based instances versus comparable x86-based instances
End-to-end automation
Application discovery and planning
AWS Transform agent for .NET uses deep domain expertise and intelligence from HAQM Bedrock LLM models for optimal inferencing. Through expanded connector support, the agent enables source code integration from GitHub, Bitbucket, and GitLab. The agent analyzes source code repositories to identify .NET versions, project types, and code and package dependencies and provides a pre-transformation assessment report. Based on your codebase, dependencies, and stated business objectives, the .NET agent delivers tailored transformation plans and recommendations.
Code conversion and refactoring
The .NET agent supports transforming a wide range of .NET project types, including MVC, WCF, Web API, Console apps, and unit test projects. It offers repository-level configuration and handles third-party packages, reducing the manual work required to transform .NET Framework applications. The agent transforms .NET Framework applications using a .NET build process and iteratively resolves build errors in a secure, network-isolated environment. The agent commits the transformed code to a new branch in your repository once a task is complete, preserving the original source code.
Testing and validation
The .NET agent autonomously executes unit test projects upon successful transformation and validates Linux-readiness—all with human reviews and approvals. It generates a natural language transformation summary that includes all the changes made to the source code and the build issues identified for easy review and optimizations. When a job is completed, you will also receive an email notification with deep links to the transformed repositories. You can review the branch and merge the code at your convenience.

AWS Transform enabled us to accelerate and standardize our transformation from .NET 4.6 to .NET 8. We successfully transformed 90% of the codebase, compiled it cleanly, and met all acceptance criteria. A transformation effort originally scoped for three months was completed in less than a week. The tool accurately handled complex changes—such as dependency injection configuration—reducing the need for manual review. This correct-by-default experience gives us the confidence to scale .NET modernization with speed and precision.

Experian
Experian Data Office faced the complex task of upgrading seven .NET applications from version 6 to 8. Traditional upgrade processes would have required extensive engineering resources, manual code analysis, and significant time investment. By leveraging AWS Transform for .NET, we achieved a remarkable 49-sprint reduction in total effort, reducing each upgrade project effort from 15 to 8 sprints. This represents a 47% productivity gain with 80% automation in code transformation across 687,600 lines of code, allowing us to deliver the projects faster, address vulnerabilities, and maintain consistent results across all seven successful upgrades
