TCS MasterCraft™: Enabling Cognitive and Intelligent Automation
Highlights
- The decision of enterprises to stay with legacy mainframe systems comes with the overhead of maintaining those legacy systems with limited specialists and/or knowledge about the systems in the market.
- Manually analyzing large enterprise applications with a huge number of lines of code is an inefficient and error-prone method.
- TCS MasterCraft™ Legacy Modernization helps enterprises understand and modernize legacy applications with minimal business disruptions.

Introduction
For modern enterprises, digital transformations are no longer an ‘if’ but a definitive ‘when’.
As digital disruptors enter the market and end customers adopt a tech-first stance, enterprise systems must be modernized to free up resources for investment in strategic initiatives, expanding the market base, and increasing revenue.
Overview
Our solution helps enterprises understand legacy applications and accelerate transformation using intelligent automation.
Based on their business objectives, enterprises can use TCS MasterCraft™ to optimize their transformation strategies such as re-platforming, refactoring, rearchitecting, or replacing.
Identifying the existing IT landscape of legacy systems is essential to initiate modernization. Through the intelligent application analysis of legacy systems and the creation of knowledge repositories, enterprises can provide data to drive their modernization decisions.
The key challenges faced by an enterprise when it retains its legacy applications include:
Unavailability of legacy application documents
Lack of subject matter experts
Higher cost of ownership
Integration between internal and external systems
Lack of agility
Internal/external compliance and regulatory challenges
Major drivers of enterprise legacy modernization are:
Cost savings
Reduced technical debt
Greater scalability and distributed processing
Better performance
Increased agility to adapt
Quicker time-to-market
Our solution
TCS MasterCraft™ provides seamless execution through an ‘Analyze-Strategize-Execute’ approach.
Legacy modernization is achieved through intelligent application analysis, business rules extraction, translation of business rules to target technology applications and data migration to the cloud, and modern application development through automated code generation. It eliminates rudimentary conversions and ensures appropriate migration of individual applications.
TCS MasterCraft™ Legacy Modernization offers the following features:
Analyzes the application, provides 360° insights into its components, and assesses the impact of any change to applications.
Automatically extracts application knowledge, such as business rules and other structural information from the source code.
Groups various core elements of the legacy application and forms a transformation strategy for their modernization.
Automates the conversion of the legacy COBOL application code to a highly maintainable, layered, and cloud-ready Java application code.
Supports legacy data structures for data migration through intelligent metadata-driven automated schema conversion.
Benefits
The solution evaluates the impact of migration to devise best-fit deployment approaches and preempt possible post-implementation scenarios.
With TCS MasterCraft™ Legacy Modernization, enterprises can achieve the following:
Zero-spill migration: Customize approaches to suit different organizational needs, address business priorities, and ensure no loss of data or disruption to business processes.
Mature, risk-mitigated approach: Intelligent automation, backed by contextual knowledge and extensive experience to ensure risk, cost, and quality optimization.
Accelerated migration: Shorten remediation and migration timelines through pre-emptive needs analysis.
Cost savings: Automated conversion of COBOL to Java, leading to more than 50% reduction in both the cost and duration of migration.
