Forte/UDS to Java conversions are anything but simple!

Forte/UDS applications tend to be large mission critical applications. They are usually both complex and mature having had many years of development and change. One million lines of Forte/UDS can result in upwards two million lines of Java, and there are significant differences in event management, window management and other architectures.

Migration projects are risky, expensive and can take many person years increasing the risk of failure while systems remain frozen, and overall for little perceived benefit and considerable outlay by the business they support.

Caro has successfully, manually migrated UDS application code to Java and understand how difficult it is to perform and succeed.
