Lori FritzExpeditors
Tufts Health Plan • First Massachusetts HMO founded in 1979; 2.3 billion in annual revenues • Speedware is the prime contractor for the full migration project • Selected Speedware based on HP e3000 industry knowledge and extensive migration experience. • Migration Profile: HP e3000 to HP-UX, PowerHouse (500K loc) to PowerHouse, HP COBOL (1M loc) to AcuCOBOL, JCL (1.2M loc) to AMXW MPE JCL, implementation of 31 other replacement utilities • Project is currently underway and scheduled to be completed early 2007
Lessons Learned • The keys to a successful migration are planning, a well-defined process and strong project management. • Do not underestimate the effort involved (even with tools) • Technology mixes create numerous integration issues • Testing will be the most labor intensive and costly component, but also the most important • The more you can get involved and provide resources, the more successful the project will be • Costs can also be better contained this way • Do not include too much into the project • Focus on getting it over and getting it working first, then enhance • Minimize application enhancements during migration period. • Limit technology changes when moving to target platform. • Stick to proven paths and technologies
Lessons Learned • Proof-of-concepts / “Technology Milestones” at the beginning of a project are a good way to mitigate risk and to identify and solve problems • Inventory what needs to be migrated at the beginning; do not pay to migrate obsolete code • Wrapper technologies eases migration and simplifies testing. No effect on performance • Watch for dependencies on MPE/iX that are not documented or immediately obvious • Deployment is not often as easy as a weekend cut-over. Careful planning is critical • Leveraging database synchronization software may be needed
