Book A ConsultationSummary
A prominent insurance provider for religious organizations and service-oriented entities sought to migrate away from its legacy AS-400 platform to a more modern, flexible technology stack. With IBM phasing out AS-400 support, the client faced the risk of system instability and long-term scalability issues. TxMinds led the seamless migration of their Insurance Policy Administration System to a Java-based platform with MS SQL integration. The result? A more agile platform, allowing faster feature deployment, improved data accessibility, and uninterrupted service for their mission-critical systems.
Overview
Our client is a well-established insurer specializing in religious organizations and service-based entities, with a mission to provide reliable and impactful services for clients who serve communities. Operating as a leader in their domain, they strive to remain at the forefront of technological innovation, continuing to deliver superior service to their clients.
Despite their success, they were encumbered by the limitations of their AS-400-based system. With the phase-out of AS-400 support, the need for a migration to a more modern, scalable solution became urgent to ensure future business continuity and operational efficiency.
Challenges
The client's operations were hindered by several key challenges, which required an urgent and strategic solution:
Legacy Platform Dependency
IBM Phasing Out AS-400 Support
The end of IBM's AS-400 support meant the client needed to migrate swiftly to avoid service disruptions and ensure long-term system sustainability.
Data Migration Complexity
Migrating large volumes of data from AS-400 to MS SQL without compromising integrity or accessibility was a significant hurdle.
Time-Consuming Feature Deployment
The legacy system hindered the development and deployment of new features, limiting the client's ability to stay responsive to market demands.
Solutions
At TxMinds, we leveraged our expertise in legacy system migration to deliver a seamless, future-proof solution. We addressed the client's needs with a comprehensive strategy that ensured stability, reliability, and enhanced performance.
Enhanced Functionality and Performance
We modernized the AS-400-based Insurance Policy Administration System by migrating it to a Java-based platform, enabling quicker implementation of new features. This migration improved the overall system's agility and performance.
Reliable Data Migration
We implemented robust ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) processes to migrate data from the AS-400 databases to MS SQL securely. Our solution ensured that data integrity and availability were maintained throughout the process.
Quality-First Approach
To ensure the success of the migration, we implemented automated API testing with a no-code tool, thorough unit testing, and proactive defect resolution. This approach resulted in zero Priority 1 and 2 defects in production, delivering a stable and high-performing system.
Consistent Operations
Unified inventory management across all sites to eliminate differences in processes. This alignment made it easier for teams to work together, reduce mistakes, and for warehouse workers and project delivery teams.
User-Centric Deployment
All system upgrades and migrations underwent rigorous User Acceptance Testing (UAT) to ensure that the solution met client expectations and business requirements. Deployments only occurred once the client provided sign-off, ensuring full alignment with their needs.
