Flezi NEXT – AI-Powered Mainframe Modernization

FPT’s Enterprise Modernization Technology (EMT), powered by Azure OpenAI, enables helps enterprises modernize legacy mainframe systems such as COBOL, JCL, PL/I, RPG, and Assembler into modern, cloud-native applications built on modern architectures like Java and Python (e.g., Java, Python) and deployed on cloud platform cloud-ready platforms.

By leveraging integrating Generative AI and Microsoft Azure capabilities, EMT enables organizations to analyze, document, refactor, test, and migrate legacy applications with up to 30% faster transformation speed, 40% lower cost, and 50% reduced migration risk compared to traditional approaches.

Who Benefits from EMT

• CIOs and IT Leaders – Reduce technical debt, operational cost, and modernization risk.
• CTOs and Enterprise Architects – Adopt a scalable AI-powered modernization and re-architecture framework.
• Development and Migration Teams – Accelerate assessment, documentation, transformation, and testing.
• Cloud Transformation Specialists – Enable seamless migration to Azure IaaS, PaaS, or SaaS with automation and governance.

Key Challenges in Legacy Modernization

• High maintenance costs and dependency on legacy skillsets – Rare expertise and high support effort.
• Incomplete documentation and knowledge loss – Outdated references increase modernization risk.
• Complex interdependencies across programs, data, and batch jobs – Manual analysis slows delivery and increases errors.
• High risk and uncertainty in large-scale migration – Limited automation, visibility, and consistency for cloud readiness.

EMT Solution Capabilities
