TORONTO, ON, December 2, 2019.
Tidal based in Toronto is pleased to announce an agreement with Treehouse Software, Inc., of Sewickley, PA to offer customers an assessment and modernization path for their mainframe applications. Often, mainframe-based legacy applications are identified as providing the highest value to the business as part of an overall application portfolio assessment.
Utilizing the Tidal business-first, application-centric assessment model and leveraging the Tidal platform and underlying discovery and assessment tools, customers quickly identify the applications that are prime candidates for transformation. The unique association with Treehouse Software gives customers a modernization pathway for their Mainframe-to-Cloud voyage.
When evaluating their application portfolio for modernization, most organizations see Mainframe and often exclude it from the assessment.
This shouldn’t be the case.
If you’re looking to either modernize your mainframe application or simply move your mainframe database to the cloud, you can now analyze that application for both its technical complexity as well as its business value and start the voyage to the cloud.
After completing the rapid Tidal assessment, Treehouse Software’s tcVISION product can move or sync a mainframe database with either AWS or Azure. What does that mean? It means that customers can continue running their mainframe-based production workloads on the mainframe, while developing the re-architected application using the same data in the Cloud.
Treehouse Software’s tcVISION, is a powerful and mature software product designed for real-time and bi-directional data replication. tcVISION’s GUI modeling and mapping, and ease of migrating data to the Cloud makes it an ideal choice for modernizing large mainframe environments. tcVISION provides the quality of service required by enterprise data workloads for security, availability, and scalability.
“Our customers often skipped the mainframe applications during their cloud readiness assessment, thinking that transformation was not an option,” says David Colebatch, CEO of Tidal. “Now the mainframe can be treated like any other application in your portfolio, with Treehouse providing a straightforward path to empowering the cloud-transition.”
