About
Identify code and optimization issues in real-time, prevent data incidents pre-deploy, and govern data-impacting code changes end to end—from the operational database to the user-facing dashboard. Automated, column-level data lineage, from the operational database all the way to the reporting layer, ensures every dependency is analyzed. Foundational automates data contract enforcement by analyzing every repository from upstream to downstream, directly from source code. Use Foundational to proactively identify code and data issues, find and prevent issues, and create controls and guardrails. Foundational can be set up in minutes with no code changes required.

About
eXplain is a specialized code-analysis and legacy-system evaluation tool from PKS Software GmbH, designed to deeply analyze, map, document, and assess legacy applications, especially on mainframe platforms such as IBM i (AS/400) and IBM Z, so organizations can understand what lives in their software, how it’s structured, and what parts are worth keeping, refactoring or retiring. It imports existing source code into an independent “eXplain server”, no need to install anything on the host system, then uses advanced parsers to examine languages like COBOL, PL/I, Assembler, Natural, RPG, JCL, and others, along with data about databases (Db2, Adabas, IMS), job-schedulers, transaction monitors, and more. eXplain builds a central repository that becomes a knowledge hub; from there, it generates cross-language dependency graphs, data-flow maps, interface analyses, clusterings of related modules, and detailed object-and-resource usage reports.
