AI-Powered Transformation Earns Karsun AWS Mainframe Modernization Competency
Karsun Solutions, the enterprise modernization company behind ReDuX®, announced today it has received AWS Mainframe Modernization Competency status. This work is powered by ReDuX®, an agentic AI platform that automates time intensive mainframe modernization work including system and behavioral analysis, requirements extraction, code refactoring, pipeline automation and end-to-end testing.
Why it Matters
- Validated Expertise: An AWS Advanced Tier Services Partner, Karsun holds competencies in Government, Migration and Modernization, and DevOps. This is backed by Well-Architected status. The Mainframe Modernization Consulting Competency demonstrates how Karsun integrates best practices and delivery discipline into every engagement.
- Agentic AI Acceleration: The ReDuX® platform (available in the AWS Marketplace) uses AI agents to rapidly assess legacy systems and complete development tasks, slashing the time required for end-to-end modernization.
- Proven Results: Recent successes include achieving 100% traceability in COBOL-to-Cloud migrations and successfully moving mission-critical certification systems to AWS.
Customer Success Highlights
Karsun used ReDuX’s AI-powered mainframe modernization capabilities for migration to the AWS cloud in several recent customer success stories:
- 100% Traceability in COBOL-to-C# Migration: Karsun utilized ReDuX® to map every business rule, translating from legacy COBOL to a modern C# architecture on AWS, eliminating black box risks.
- Modernizing Natural/ADABAS in a Mission-Critical Certification Systems: Using ReDuX® Karsun transitioned a high-stakes certification processing system from a mainframe environment to a high-performance, scalable AWS cloud solution.
How it Works
Mainframes are the final frontier of cloud migration. Karsun’s combination of validated refactoring and reimagining patterns combined with agentic AI guardrails removes modernization risk and reduces complexity, allowing leaders to modernize without losing the business logic buried in decades of legacy code.
Comparison: Traditional vs. ReDuX-Accelerated Modernization
Using the ReDuX® platform transforms a high-risk manual process into a structured, AI-driven migration.
Feature | Traditional Modernization | ReDuX®-Accelerated (Agentic AI) |
System Assessment | Months of manual code analysis and documentation reviews. | ReDuX® completes discovery in days, not weeks. AI agents crawl and map the entire codebase then analyze legacy assets for deep insights. |
Logic Extraction | High risk of black box legacy system logic being lost or misinterpreted. | ReDuX® provides 100% Traceability. Agents document every business rule from COBOL to Cloud. |
Development Speed | Missed dead code requires manual refactoring. Modernization work is prone to human error and syntax bugs. | With automated task completion, AI handles repetitive coding and refactoring tasks. Self-learning AI ensures best practices are propagated throughout the modernization team. |
Testing & Validation | Traditional modernization requires extensive manual regression testing at the end of the cycle. | Using ReDuX® AI agents generate functional requirements ready for behavior driven development and suitable for automated testing. Later, agents perform end-to-end testing ensuring the output meets the functional definition of done. |
Risk Profile | Performing modernization work manually is high risk, often resulting in stalled or failed migrations. | ReDuX® reduces modernization risk by producing modular applications with traceable code that is validated at every step. |
