Description
Mercedes-Benz is migrating its SAP landscape to AWS for RISE with SAP and uses agentic AI, including AWS Transform, to refactor remaining mainframe applications by converting COBOL to Java. The source reports developers' higher satisfaction with AI-assisted tools and that the OneERP application moved to the cloud in nine months; it gives no figure attributing speed-up to the AI tools.
…g mainframe applications to AWS, refactoring code with support from agentic AI. This is especially impactful when converting COBOL to Java using tools such as AWS Transform, leading to more efficiency and productivity and a much faster migration process. Outcome | Radical standardization results in IT transformation As a result of t…
