Management Perspective » Phasing Out         
Phasing Out
Phasing out of outdated Hardware, Operating Systems, Development platforms, Hierarchical/Network database systems or even major application systems can effectively be achieved through automated conversion and migration.
 
An overall phasing-out of all issues above is called re-platforming. The ROI of re-platforming to open systems and less costly hardware, using G4-technology is less than year in average.
 
Re-platforming requires a thorough site survey before automated conversion of applications and migration of database(s) can start. The ERP system G4/EAM gives full control over such complex processes.
 
Cornerstone Technology cooperates, if needed, with client’s experts or local partners to undertake the introductory studies and work inventory. Effective support is guaranteed from G4/EAM. In some phasing out situations we cooperate with global operating System Integrators that take care of infrastructural issues. The real fully automatic conversion and migration is done by Cornerstone.
