About Transformer Cobol
Morphis Transformer for Cobol Automated Refactoring from Mainframe to Serverless When it comes to move workloads from mainframe to the cloud, we face two possible paths: Re-hosting: a more tactical approach that preserves the original code almost untouched. Refactoring: a more strategic alternative, in which new applications, written in more modern languages, are obtained from the legacy sources. At first glance Re-hosting can be more appealing, since it represents inferior cost and risks. But if Refactoring uses very high automation, both Re-host and Refactoring approaches can be pursued in projects with similar duration, similar risks, and similar costs. We here demonstrate the Morphis Automated Refactoring, yet tailored, approach to migrate from COBOL/CICS OLTP applications to single page applications, with JavaEE or .NET server logic, fully integrated with cloud native services. Furthermore, this approach also allows us to achieve the ultimate costs.

eXplain
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.

OpenAI Codex
Codex is an AI-powered coding agent from OpenAI designed to help developers build, manage, and ship software more efficiently across the entire development lifecycle. It acts as an intelligent pair programmer that can understand codebases, generate features, and deliver production-ready pull requests. Codex can safely execute commands in sandboxed environments while assisting with debugging, refactoring, and testing. A key advancement is its computer use capability, allowing it to operate your computer by seeing, clicking, and typing across applications. This enables Codex to interact with tools that don’t have APIs, making it useful for tasks like frontend testing and app navigation. The platform also includes an in-app browser and integrations with various developer tools for a more unified workflow. Codex supports automation by handling ongoing tasks such as monitoring, issue triage, and follow-ups.
