Strategic New Business Initiatives

Payment Security and Payment Services Target : banks and payment processors Why

high risk, low hanging fruit for hackers Banks, payment processors, merchants are being forced to close this gap Saving costs on compliance

Modernisation of Nonstop Applications Target : any Nonstop customer using “legacy” applications Key initiative

to help customers changing the way, how they use and see Nonstop To make Nonstop strategic in the Enterprise (again) To enable development of new services and solutions on HP Nonstop

The Characteristics of Legacy Applications

25+ years old Individual development Not always as well documented as required Historically grown driven by changing business needs Highly specialised including high experience in business processes Usually complex Business critical Considered difficult and expensive to maintain

Skillset Costs

BUT : usually serving the business (=proven)

“Should we keep our current applications and modernize what we can, or move the functionality to “something else” ?

So what means „modernise“ to us ?

Keep using what works well Make these core services available supporting new client models Move to database standards (SQL) Change presentation layer to fulfil today‘s user expectations

OR - in business terms : maximise the business value of the legacy application Addíng flexibility and adoptability to support business agility Improve user experience Improve developer experince
