Case studies

Modernization, proven on real enterprise systems.

Recent transformations delivered by our team, many through Vivify Japan — our channel in the world's most exacting enterprise market. Clients are anonymized by sector, as is convention there; the systems and results are real.

Manufacturing Code Analyzer + Code Transformer

A 20-year-old PowerBuilder estate, moved to the modern web

Two decades of operation had outrun the documentation, and the engineers who knew the system were retiring. Every change carried more risk than the last.

Transformation
PowerBuilder → HTML5 web app
shorter migration period
50%
ongoing maintenance cost
−40%

Automated analysis rebuilt the missing documentation from the code itself, and model-driven transformation delivered a standard HTML5 web application — in half the migration time, with maintenance costs down 40%.

Millions of lines of VB6, fully mapped before a single change

Nobody could see the full impact scope of a change across a VB6 estate running to millions of lines, so modifications and new features had stalled.

Transformation
VB6 → complete dependency model
impact-scope visibility
Full
to a complete migration plan
2 mo

Code Analyzer modeled every dependency in the codebase, giving the team complete impact visibility for the first time — and turning an unplannable modernization into a concrete migration plan within two months.

Oracle PL/SQL to PostgreSQL, on a cloud-migration deadline

A cloud migration required converting a large volume of Oracle PL/SQL stored procedures — far too many to rewrite by hand on the program timeline.

Transformation

95%
cloud migration unblocked
On time

Code Transformer converted the stored procedures to PostgreSQL-compatible code at a 95% automation rate, collapsing the manual effort and keeping the cloud migration on schedule.

A Biz/Browser core system, on the open web before support ran out

Vendor support for Biz/Browser was winding down, putting a hard clock on a system the business ran on every day. It had to reach modern browsers before the platform reached end of life.

Transformation
Biz/Browser → HTML5 web app
of the conversion automated
90%+
modern-browser support
Full

More than 90% of the conversion was automated, replacing the proprietary client with a standard HTML5 application that runs in every modern browser — and answers to no vendor’s roadmap.

Hundreds of Nexaweb screens, converted automatically

With Nexaweb platform support ending, a large-scale business system spanning hundreds of screens had a hard deadline to reach HTML5.

Transformation
Nexaweb → modern HTML5 architecture
of screens auto-converted
100s
shorter migration period
40%

Automated conversion carried hundreds of screens to a modern HTML5 architecture and cut the migration period by 40% — on the platform our own team knows best, from its Nexaweb roots.
