Enterprises want to…
Understand the impact and cost of changes to their IT systems; Harvest
and manage business rules from existing applications, analyze these rules, and
minimize rework and points of failure
What is impacted

Industry analysts estimate
COBOL there are between
copybook? 200 and 300 billion
JSF lines of mainframe
legacy code.
EJB COBOL accounts
COBOL for about 70%
of that, with five billion new lines
of code added each year
But…
They have no business intelligence inventory of their application assets,
relying instead on manual, error-prone processes and incomplete knowledge.
They must compensate with more extensive planning and extra testing and by
manually ‘searching’ for code affected by business decisions.
