"Modernize, Leverage and Secure"  business applications while reducing many of the risks involved in an enhancement project.  LegacyJ has been used to successfully modernize existing legacy systems into Java enabled environments.

"Address Challenges" common to many  IT organizations having legacy products and technologies:

  •  End of Life Systems

  • "Business Systems" versus "New Technology" (the silo issue)

  •  Siloed Staffs

  •  System Complexity

  • Proprietary Systems versus Open

  • Restrictive Proprietary Databases

"Use the Best"  by leveraging your current IT systems yet incorporating new technologies.  Add new Java capabilities to COBOL solutions thus increasing the flexibility of your existing business assets.  The results can mean new business opportunities!  Our customers have leveraged existing COBOL and CICS applications to provide new services which could not be accomplished without the use of LegacyJ.

“Reduce Costs” with the use of  LegacyJ products and technologies.  Operational costs are reduced by extending your solution to scaleable hardware platforms running Linux, Unix, or Windows.  System cost can be reduced by eliminating expensive proprietary systems software (zOS, CICS) and through modernizing to  open supported platforms and operating systems (today's modern technology).  All data now becomes visible to SQL-based products & tools, providing more flexibility for your data assets while reducing demands from end-users on your IT staff.

“Minimize Change” with the use of  LegacyJ products and technologies.  The source remains COBOL; thus no retraining of your development staff is necessary; the existing user interface is retained meaning no end-user retraining; and data I/O is “bridged” to SQL so that no source changes are required. The results of these three aspects of LegacyJ means that your migration is the fastest, least risky, and has by far the better ROI than any other approach.

"Modernize and Extend" COBOL to leverage proprietary technologies in "Open"  and "standards based" systems. Use LegacyJ to leverage IT investment and move  forward to new standards-based, platform independent methodologies. 

  • Move to Open Systems (Source remains in COBOL and the execution is in Java)

  • Retain Technical Expertise (Yet use latest technologies permitting career and technology growth)

  • Retain existing User Interface "as is" or modernize.

  • Access Modern Database Technology without source code rewrite (Proprietary to "Open")

  • Blend Application Silos "Business Applications" with "Web Applications"  (Intermix COBOL with latest technologies of Java, XML, etc.)

  • Easily extend to Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) without adding complexity.


Our customers have  to moved millions of lines of COBOL from costly restrictive proprietary platforms to "OPEN" environments achieving increased capabilities (while adding capabilities unavailable with other COBOL compilers) and reduced cost (commercial terms that make sense).

Customers have enhanced COBOL assets to increase security, add capability and permit flexibility not available with any other CICS or COBOL solution.

LegacyJ PERCobol Presentation

LegacyJ brings together the best features of COBOL (the programming language) and Java (the execution environment)!  CICS and COBOL can be modernized to fully exploit the promise of SOA executing with Java.

LegacyJ products are using to teach COBOL and CICS in colleges and universities in many locations around the world. 

  • More than 850 students in one school using PERCobol to learn COBOL and CICS.
  • "Easy-to-use and the IDE is wonderful", say  instructors in South Africa, Belgium, France, US and Canada.
