Kyndryl certified as Elite Partner for new AWS Transform for Mainframe solution to integrate or move applications to the AWS Cloud
Kyndryl's new services make it easier for enterprises to integrate or move mainframe applications to the AWS Cloud platform by leveraging the automated agentic AI capabilities of AWS Transform. As part of this initiative, Kyndryl is educating its experts in new AI skills for AWS.
To facilitate the transformation of mainframe applications to AWS, Kyndryl is applying its consulting expertise and services to help customers streamline the application software development lifecycle. Kyndryl also employs platform engineering and best practices to integrate, quickly provision and deploy applications on AWS. This approach accelerates application modernization, enables flexibility and customization, and future-proofs the software delivery cycle to enhance the developer experience.
Additionally, Kyndryl is providing services to leverage AWS Transform to modernize and migrate mainframe applications to AWS. For most organizations, conducting exploratory and deep analysis of source code and documentation can be challenging, time-consuming and prone to errors. AWS Transform's ability to translate complex code terms using agentic AI improves understanding of and working with application documentation. Kyndryl's projections indicate that applying AWS Transform to large-scale modernization and migration projects will potentially reduce timelines by approximately one-third. As a result, the new services allow customers to quickly unlock value from their mainframe data and applications, and scale and transform their digital businesses.
"Our new services leveraging AWS Transform will support and speed mainframe modernization journeys by dramatically reducing migration and transformation project timeframes," said Hassan Zamat, Global Practice Leader for Core Enterprise & zCloud at Kyndryl. "The combination of Kyndryl's deep mainframe expertise and AWS's agentic AI capabilities can help customers across various industries streamline mainframe transformation initiatives, increase productivity, and hence drive better business outcomes."
Kyndryl's AI-powered open integration platform, Kyndryl Bridge, can consolidate cloud and mainframe automation and event handling to help customers identify those applications that can be modernized in new ways. They can then use AWS Transform to modernize and migrate mainframe applications to AWS which allows them to drive more value, help inform stakeholders faster and simplify their decision-making.
