“This is about unlocking all the data necessary to make big decisions. Nobody wants to report on 60% of their data, especially if the other 40% is packed with decades of business value. Whether it’s structured or not, legacy data is being integrated with data warehouses or converted to new, modern systems for analytics. This partnership delivers a solid foundation for these efforts, reducing risk while optimizing target system performance.

By moving to SQL Server from the mainframe data stores, IT is able to deliver on self-service Business Intelligence (BI). SQL Server’s integrated analytics and reporting services enables the end-users to derive their own insights to drive quicker and better informed decisions.

The BluePhoenix solution enables us to maintain the business logic of the legacy environment while taking advantage of newer, more robust Microsoft technologies. We’ll be able to process and share data between business groups quicker with less risk, creating a distinct competitive advantage for Jetro

“We are very happy with the progress we are making and the quarterly numbers continue to show improving results. Almost all of the restructuring is behind us and we are now focused on our core strengths, building sales, and launching new marketing efforts. As a result the pipeline is growing and we are finding new areas to leverage existing technology to sell to new markets.”

I’m excited to have the opportunity to lead BluePhoenix’s finance and control functions. The company brings a great value proposition and is unique in its space. I look forward to partnering with the rest of the executive team to focus on growth and delivering shareholder value.

The old platform was built on infrastructure that was expensive and hard to maintain. We tried a commercial ERP solution but found the business logic of the legacy platform served our needs better. The BluePhoenix solution enables us to maintain the business logic of the legacy environment while taking advantage of newer, more robust Microsoft technologies.

Our solution is unique in that we preserve the business logic layer and generate a target environment that has maintainable code. This approach reduces project risk and empowers the customer to keep the most desirable aspects of the legacy environment.

Our goal is to make better decisions faster and overcome the challenges associated with non-relational databases. We selected BluePhoenix because of their significant experience, proven solutions and support.

“By moving batch workloads to Windows Azure or a Microsoft Private Cloud, companies are able to take advantage of cloud economics. Combined with the advanced analytics included in SQL Server, the customer not only realizes great savings, scale and flexibility but increased business value through self-service BI.”

“Batch In The Cloud uses off-mainframe, cloud-based processing power to reduce mainframe MIPS and total cost of ownership. The huge array of virtual machines in the cloud brings greater performance and scalability than the mainframe. Jobs can be processed quicker at a lower cost. It’s a great way for customers to save money immediately and explore options for an eventual mainframe transition.”

“In a typical scenario, workloads continue to grow while the mainframe’s processing power and batch window stays the same. Our technology acts as a bridge between the mainframe and cloud. With Batch In The Cloud, all business logic is preserved. Customers can reduce usage cost by running jobs like reporting from the cloud platform rather than the mainframe. In that scenario, they can also add business value by using modern business intelligence tools that aren’t compatible with the mainframe to gain insight from their data.”
