S7 Software Solutions Pvt. Ltd launches its in-house migration and porting tool
Linux-it

Redmond, WA, April 6, 2006- S7 Software Solutions today announced the launch of
their new porting and migration tool 'Linux-it'. Based on a deterministic approach,
Linux-it is a suite of tools to port applications to Linux [Redhat, SuSE etc] from
Sun Solaris, HP, SGI, SCO, and AIX. It comprises of Parser, Wrapper and Converter
programs and provides a better porting decision by estimating the porting and cost
complexity even before the porting process begins.

It also automates the possible porting tasks and reduces time and development
effort. With Linux-it, clients get both tools and a methodology to move to the Linux
environment. It relies upon a set of scripts and tools to achieve efficiency and
productivity improvements in the process of migration. While the scripts identify
the possible porting issues, the tools actually generate part of the migration code.


"Linux-it helps in giving a "deterministic" and "tool-based approach" for the
porting and migration process. It lets one know in advance whether porting is
possible or not by modules thereby, providing a roadmap and estimation to customers
regarding the Linux migration. This consequently reduces the time, development
effort to as much as 30-40% as the migration is done by the tool itself and removes
the probability factor and gives the break-up of the porting efforts. This tool
reduce costs and time to market and gives the customer a significantly higher Return
On Investment (ROI)," said Mr. Manjunath M Gowda, CEO, S7 Software Solutions

Linux-it can effortlessly perform the following porting and migration tasks-

Less critical server migration (like file servers, print servers, mail servers,
intranet web servers, firewalls servers, DNS servers etc)
Application server platform and application migration of non-critical applications
Application server platform and application migration of critical business
applications
Database server migration to Linux OS - keeping the database same
Database server migration to Linux OS, along with migration of database to an open
source db like MySQL


The tool provides an integrated end-to-end solution that covers aspects like porting
analysis, effort estimation and actual migration to the target Linux environment
where any professional team can ensure that the system testing with the new
environment is completed and successfully deployed.
