Acucorp Selects Clerity as Its Partner of the Year
San Diego, CA - March 28, 2007 - Acucorp, Inc., is proud to announce that it has selected Clerity Solutions, Inc. as its 2006 Partner of the Year. Together, Acucorp—a global provider of COBOL modernization solutions—and Clerity—a leading supplier of mainframe migration services, software, and technology—provide a comprehensive rehosting strategy for customers who want to extend their mainframe assets on open-systems platforms.
“While our alliance with Clerity has spanned more than a decade, we’ve spent the last 12 months working very closely together to create a robust solution for businesses that decide to rehost their mainframe applications,” explains Lori Galván, Vice President, Market Development at Acucorp. “As a result of this collaboration, we’ve been able to assist many high-profile customers worldwide by dramatically lowering their total cost of ownership (TCO) and freeing up capital for new IT investments.”
“Our selection of Clerity as the 2006 Acucorp Partner of the Year is designed to recognize their significant contributions to the mainframe rehosting market and, in turn, their support of our expansion into this industry,” says Galván.
Using Clerity’s Solutions’ Mainframe Rehosting Software—which includes UniKix™ Transaction Processing Environment (TPE) software and UniKix™ Batch Processing Environment (BPE) software—customers can move legacy IBM CICS and batch COBOL applications onto open-systems platforms. This not only lowers operation and maintenance costs, but it also significantly decreases TCO. Then, with special transaction server versions of Acucorp’s ACUCOBOL-GT® Development System and runtime, businesses benefit from having a COBOL development system to rehost and modernize legacy CICS and batch applications.
