Application Modernization is a fact of life for most IT organizations. The use of new computing platforms like the Cloud as well as new mobile computing devices has created challenges far beyond ever imagined a few years ago. However, these Legacy Applications contain the mission critical data processes of past generations.The goal to success is to unearth these secrets and accurately upgrade these Legacy Applications or move them to new platforms as required. At Marble Computer, we have the software products to make this task easier.
Perplexing Challenges
Supported
Marble Computer has a long history of supporting Enterprise Computing clients that date back to 1977.
Our flagship product, Control/DCD, documents COBOL programs with our Digital Document Manual (DDM) technology. Docet/EV Documents the IT Enterprise. Ripple-Trac helps convert Legacy Data to RDBMs platforms.
Marble Computer’s software tools focus on Dev/Ops, Legacy Modernization and Cloud Migration projects. Our mission is to provide automated Documentation Tools across all computing platforms.
Latest Tools
RES
RES is an advanced set of software products for documenting the IT Enterprise. Docet/EV is a must have tool for Legacy Modernization, DevOps and Cloud Migration implementations.
Control/DCD
Control/DCD is the latest version of the DCD Data Correlation and Document product. Control/DCD significantly reduces the cost of maintaining COBOL applications and produces the Digital Documentation Manual (DDM).
DCD Pre-Compiler for COBOL 6.2
Control/DCD has the necessary functionality to provide warnings and capture errors in older versions of IBM compilers. There are many types of errors that the Control/DCD Pre-Compiler will catch thus making migrations to Enterprise COBOL compilers faster and less costly.

Future of Cobol
Managing COBOL Code for Mainframe Applications has become a difficult task. The shortage of experienced mainframe programmers has left organizations with little choice but to offshore the maintenance of the application code with less experienced programmers or try to develop in-house COBOL programming talent.

Control/DCD for Conversion to COBOL v.6.2
Control/DCD is a useful software tool for the conversion of COBOL applications to the new IBM COBOL compiler known as
Version 6.1. For many large organizations the continued use of the Mainframe platform is justified as a back end data server. This is true for 2 reasons, Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) and security. So we find Mainframes still processing large batch jobs utilizing COBOL code that goes back 40-50 years. The “Tribal Knowledge” is long gone.

Managing Source Code on Mainframe Applications has become a difficult task. The shortage of experienced COBOL mainframe programmers has left organization’s with a dilemma regarding the maintenance of the application code. Most of today’s COBOL programmers have little knowledge of the Legacy Application’s logic or the business rules.
IBM Reseller Announcement
Marble Computer is pleased to announce that we are now an IBM Partner reselling z/OS software products. Our focus initially will be in the application development tools Rational and Problem Determination Tools.
Why Marble’s Control/DCD is Useful for Moving Away from V 4.2
The observation made on our part is that companies are looking at what is needed for conversion to COBOL 5 or 6 and moving very slowly to do the conversion.
There may be several reasons for moving slowly and only one of these reasons may be the time to convert the COBOL, yet the time to do the conversion is still a significant consideration.
