Quite an extend of the systems and applications known as legacy are in fact vital systems, since recent studies show that more than a half of the organizations’ business-critical applications worldwide are hosted in mainframe environments.

Often, replacing these systems becomes too expensive or is not even an option and, therefore, their maintenance undertakes a vital role. Thus, in order for legacy applications to give an adequate response to their business requirements, organizations spend an enormous and enduring effort in their maintenance, updating and integration.

Although legacy applications hold, in numerous cases, mission-critical data, rules and business processes, it is common for organizations to face a myriad of problems when trying to guarantee their maintenance. Some of these problems relate to:

• Lack of internal mainframe expert resources

• Unavailability of the original application developers, either because they moved to other projects or left the organization

• Difficulties in understanding the application’s code

• Inadequate or non-existing documentation

• In the case of older applications, lack of support by the supplier
