A contractor supporting a critical mainframe modernization project for a state government agency, faced a significant challenge. Tasked with migrating a legacy COBOL system, the contractor’s initial pilot migration attempt using AWS Blu Age could not fully meet customer requirements. The tool could only output Java and not meet the new requirement for Python or C#. Furthermore, the migration lacked traceability, making it impossible to validate. This contractor engaged Karsun Solutions, which leveraged its AI-powered ReDuX modernization platform. Using Agentic AI capabilities powered by Amazon Bedrock, ReDuX automatically analyzed the legacy system and generated the required C# programs, Summer Batch Core workflows, and MS SQL Server tables, delivering the 100% traceability needed to successfully complete the pilot.

About the Customer

The customer was one of three vendors awarded a contract for a cloud services project for a state government agency. This project’s goal is to modernize a core business system by converting legacy mainframe code to Python or C# while moving to a cloud-based platform.

Customer Challenge

A state government agency initiated a high-priority project to convert its legacy system to a modern, cloud-based platform. The state’s primary goals were to enhance security, improve flexibility, ensure data redundancy, and lower long-term maintenance costs.

The project was structured in two phases: a competitive part one pilot awarded to three bidders, followed by a part two award for the full system conversion given to a single winner from the pilot. The customer team was tasked with migrating a subsystem for the pilot, as it was the least entangled with other subsystems.

The customer’s initial modernization attempt hit two critical roadblocks. First, the agency’s requirements evolved. After initially preferring Java, the state later specified a preference for Python or C#. This immediately put the team’s approach in jeopardy, as AWS Blu Age can only create code in Java. Second, they were unable to show file-level COBOL program traceability to modern programs. This made validation and future maintenance impossible in the mind of the customer. Failure to solve these challenges would result in a failed pilot and disqualification from the lucrative part two of the contract.

The Partner Solution

The pilot contract was explicitly for cloud services. The state agency sought the enhanced security, flexibility, and redundancy that a cloud-native solution provides. The successful solution embraced this by using a suite of AWS-native services. Additionally, Karsun used its AI-powered modernization platform, ReDuX, to solve complex traceability problems in legacy systems and could output modern C# code, directly meeting the new requirements.

The ReDuX platform rapidly analyzed the system and generated a fully modernized, traceable equivalent.

Agentic Analysis: First, Karsun used its ReDuX Blueprint tool. This tool, which is powered by Amazon Bedrock, applied GenAI models to analyze the system, including COBOL programs, JCL, and DB2 database tables. This process created a comprehensive and fully documented map of the legacy system’s architecture and business logic.
Automated Transformation: With this detailed blueprint, Karsun’s ReDuX Code Companion used agents to automatically transform the legacy application. The modernized solution consisted of:
- Agentic Analysis: First, Karsun used its ReDuX Blueprint tool. This tool, which is powered by Amazon Bedrock, applied GenAI models to analyze the system, including all COBOL programs, JCL, and DB2 database tables. This process created a comprehensive and fully documented map of the legacy system’s architecture and business logic.
- Automated Transformation: With this detailed blueprint, ReDuX Code Companion used agents to automatically transform the legacy application. The new, modernized solution consisted of:
  - Modern C# Application: C# programs were generated for every COBOL program. Verifiable, one-to-one mapping solved the traceability problem. This new application is hosted on .NET Core containers over the AWS EKS service or on EC2 instances.
  - Cloud-Native Batch Processing: Summer Batch Core workflows were generated for every JCL, converting all mainframe batch processes into cloud-native, serverless workflows.
  - File Storage: Application files are now stored in AWS S3.
  - Angular Front-End: A new user interface in Angular precisely mimicks the flow of the original mainframe green screens, such as the menu and work order creation screens.
  - MS SQL Server Tables: Every legacy DB2 database table was migrated to a new table in MS SQL Server.

Results and Benefits

Karsun’s AI-powered ReDuX platform successfully delivered a modernized pilot application that met all of the state’s requirements, rectifying the failures of the initial attempt. The primary benefit was the achievement of 100% traceability for the entire application stack.

The key success metric was the one-to-one mapping of legacy assets to modern, cloud-native code, all made possible by the GenAI analysis from AWS Bedrock:

Every COBOL program was converted to a corresponding C# program, now running in .NET Core containers on AWS EKS or EC2.
Every JCL was converted to a Summer Batch Core workflow.
Every DB2 table was migrated to an MS SQL Server table.

This provided the customer with a complete, verifiable, and maintainable modern application, allowing them to successfully complete the pilot.

Learn more about Karsun’s Cloud Solutions.

One of Karsun Solutions’ government agency customers manages critical certification systems processing millions of applications globally. This agency partnered with Karsun to modernize its legacy Software AG Natural and ADABAS mainframe system used for its certification workflows. It had demonstrated expertise in mainframe modernization and clear competency in these environments. It had also previously delivered secure, compliant cloud solutions meeting federal requirements for this customer.

It migrated the system to Amazon Web Services (AWS) using modern code deployed on Karsun’s container platform. The modernized system eliminated mainframe dependencies, reduced operational costs, enabled modern integrations, and positioned the agency for continuous innovation while maintaining seamless processing for millions of certifications.

About the Customer

The customer’s regulatory portfolio consisted of approximately 10 interconnected systems handling certifications covering both professional certifications as well as equipment registrations. While serving millions of people globally, the internal processing systems are utilized by fewer than 100 examiners, indexers, and supervisors who review and approve certification applications.

Customer Challenge

The certification system operated on legacy mainframe technology using the Software AG Natural programming language and ADABAS databases. It integrated with multiple systems including an external application submission portal, document management relying on screen scraping, and a portal where individuals manage their certifications.

Moreover, documentation of business rules was limited, making maintenance and enhancement difficult. Integration required manually keyed information from digitized documents. Additionally, recruiting developers with mainframe skills was increasingly difficult, threatening long-term system sustainability.

Partner Solution

The solution architecture utilizes Java for backend services and Angular with Angular Material for the frontend. The customer selected AWS for its proven reliability with mission-critical government systems and compliance with federal security standards.

Tyrion Container Platform

The new system is hosted on Tyrion, Karsun’s Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA) High-rated AWS GovCloud container platform based on Amazon EKS. The AWS GovCloud’s isolated region is specifically designed for U.S. government workloads providing the security and compliance framework necessary to meet regulatory requirements.

Karsun previously delivered Tyrion as part of a broader transformation initiative for this customer. It provides agency application owners a platform to build, test, deploy, host, and scale container-based software solutions.

The platform leverages multiple AWS services including Amazon EKS for Kubernetes orchestration, Amazon EC2 for compute resources, Amazon Elastic Block Store (EBS) for persistent storage, and Amazon RDS for managed database services. Tyrion’s DevOps ecosystem includes Tekton for build pipelines, ArgoCD implementing GitOps for continuous deployment, Karpenter for intelligent node scaling, Datadog for comprehensive monitoring, Kubecost for consumption apportionment across teams, and Backstage as a developer portal providing self-service capabilities.

System Consolidation and Modernization

Karsun consolidated two mainframe subsystems eliminating complex inter-system communication mechanisms. The team replaced legacy screen-scraping interfaces with RESTful APIs. This enabled real-time data exchange and eliminated brittle integration points.

Document Workflow Reimagined

Rather than simply replicating mainframe processes, Karsun reimagined workflows for the cloud environment. The new system retrieves only essential metadata from the document management system while maintaining secure access to document images. Karsun implemented automated processing for routine certification types eliminating unnecessary manual review and streamlining operations.

Requirements Validation Approach

Given the minimal documentation, Karsun established a rigorous requirements validation process. It worked closely with the mainframe sustainment team to analyze mainframe code and database schemas. Working with the customer, the team documented findings and confirmed functionalities. Requirements were captured as user stories with acceptance criteria following agile best practices, ensuring business approval at each increment.

Karsun introduced its ReDuX platform. This AI-powered platform for legacy code analysis accelerates discovery and delivery of complex modernization initiatives. Its parser ingests Natural mainframe code and creates comprehensive system blueprints. Using ReDuX the team validated business rules and identified edge cases often overlooked during traditional requirements gathering.

Results and Benefits

Certification processing transitioned from mainframe to AWS, delivering measurable business and technical benefits:

Operational Efficiency: Automated processing of routine certifications eliminates manual examiner workload for specific application types, allowing staff to focus on complex cases requiring judgment.
Technical Modernization: API-based integrations replaced screen scraping, improving reliability and reducing integration maintenance. The modern Java and Angular technology stack addresses talent acquisition challenges, with significantly larger developer pools.
Platform Leverage: Deploying on Tyrion provides the application with enterprise-grade container orchestration, automated scaling through Karpenter, comprehensive monitoring via Datadog, and streamlined DevOps workflows through Tekton and ArgoCD. The FISMA High-rated platform eliminates the need for separate security authorization, accelerating time to production.
Knowledge Preservation: Comprehensive documentation created during the project created a sustainable foundation for maintenance and enhancements, addressing the legacy system’s critical documentation gap.

If you followed us on LinkedIn on Halloween 2019 you may remember our Karsun “Zombie Slayers” pledged to eliminate a common legacy system scourge, dead code. Six years later our zombie code toolkit has expanded to include artificial intelligence (AI). The ReDuX AI-powered modernization platform and its Blueprint Lenses help our agile teams identify threats early and address their presence as part of the modernization process rather than risking cascading issues after deployment.

Three Zombie Code Threats

Zombie code typically refers to sections of source code in a software project that are no longer used or needed but still exist within the codebase. These unused code segments may have been part of previous versions of the software or were once essential but have become obsolete due to changes in requirements, design, or functionality. This creates system scar tissue that further complicates and constrains modernization efforts.

We identified three threats that still haunt enterprise teams today: dead weight code, living dead code, and vulnerable dead code.

Dead Weight Code is not related to any application functionality. Its lack of function leads to resource drain. Remediating this non-functional code siphons away developers’ time and energy creating rework and technical debt.
Living Dead Code is dormant code that retains the ability to be activated. Perhaps it supports a feature no longer used by the system. However, this code poses a direct risk because it can negatively impact system output when activated by mistake. In 2019 we recounted Knight Capital’s catastrophic loss of $440 million in 30 minutes. This code woke up a dead zombie method, which incorrectly generated orders, flooding the stock market with trades.
Vulnerable Dead Code consists of old libraries or packages. Vulnerable dead code introduces security risks because these old components have known security issues that are easy targets.

Identifying Dead Code with AI

Over the past six years we have honed our zombie fighting skills building the ReDuX platform. Accelerating modernization with AI, the ReDuX platform begins by providing in-depth legacy system insights. This not only helps Karsun agile teams design better modern systems, it helps us identify zombie risks early so they do not impact development later.

The first step in our process is building a Blueprint of the legacy system then diving deeper with Blueprint Lenses. Legacy subject matter experts (SMEs) upload documentation, codebases, schema and other materials into ReDuX. Using AI ReDuX agents identify the relationships between system code and components. These agents then create several views, or lenses, to understand the system better.

For instance, a team viewing their system in ReDuX could view their API calls, scroll through requirements and compare the code citations to ensure accuracy. As part of this process they can also identify orphan code. Thus beginning the dead code analysis process.

Addressing Zombie Code Threats with System Blueprinting

Here’s how we use AI-powered Blueprint agents to address the three types of zombie code.

Dead Weight Code is addressed using AI to generate system requirements. By matching those requirements with specific sections of code we can also determine when code exists that does contribute to meeting these functional requirements. By only extracting functional equivalents, rather than automatic conversion, we can then abandon this type of zombie code in the legacy system graveyard.
Living Dead Code is addressed with AI by speeding up the discovery process. Now legacy SMEs can focus on the work of understanding how every component of the legacy system interacts with internal and external components. And, by fully generating system business rules and business logic they have a clearer picture of potential unintended consequences of living dead code.

Teams can then proactively determine the code and system functionality they will extract from the old system to build the new system. More importantly they can do this incrementally, preserving the old system to build new components one functional slice at a time. This provides an additional backstop against living dead code.
Vulnerable Dead Code is also targeted by extracting only the code we need. Further by focusing on functional equivalents we can modernize to optimize. Using AI code companion agents for development, we replace these libraries with modern architecture that is secure by design.

Whether moving away from risky code or outdated components, time is of the essence when trying to outrun zombie code. Providing four times faster delivery with two times less rework ReDuX is an essential tool for our zombie slayer teams. If you’re facing a similar challenge, our AI empowered teams address complex legacy challenges for government organizations and enterprise teams with complex mission-critical applications.
