CodeTurn
CodeTurn is Astadia’s automated mainframe code conversion product, built to automatically transform legacy source code into modern source code that is maintainable and 100% functionally equivalent to the original. It takes an application’s source code and converts it to functionally identical sources, ready to run in an alternative environment on the same platform or on a different platform altogether. Because the conversion and testing are fully automated, the outcome of the modernization project becomes highly predictable in terms of risks, costs, and duration. The migrated application is free of dependencies on proprietary Astadia software and relies on native industry-standard technologies instead. CodeTurn integrates all aspects of conversion to produce high-quality, functionally equivalent code and is typically used with Astadia tools such as DataTurn for legacy data migration, TestMatch for automated testing, and DataMatch for automated batch testing.

OpenFrame
OpenFrame from TmaxSoft is a comprehensive mainframe modernization and replatforming solution that enables organizations to migrate legacy mainframe applications and data to open systems such as Linux, Unix, Docker containers, or public cloud environments without modifying existing business logic, preserving core functionality while reducing total cost of ownership and avoiding risky rewrites. It delivers a future-oriented, standard three-tier architecture that improves performance, stability, flexibility, and scalability compared with traditional mainframes, with support for over 100K MIPS and increased processing capacity. OpenFrame uses advanced compiler technology and an integrated asset analysis environment (OF Manager) to automatically convert user interface logic, application logic, and data structures so applications run natively in open environments with minimal manual effort, enabling existing personnel and skill sets to be retained.
