Modernization Lifecycle Platform (MLP)

Understanding what you have is the crucial first step in any modernization journey. MLP starts here, giving you extensive coverage of and visibility into your existing codebase.

Deep Code Model: At the core of MLP is a rich and interconnected model of your code. This is not just about language grammar and syntax; it’s a structured, semantic representation that understands and models all possible relationships that exist in a programming language and software system as a whole, not just individual statements. This model serves as the foundation for a deep understanding and rationalization of the application, which is necessary for performing reliable and repeatable transformations of the underlying application’s legacy platform and architecture into a chosen target.

Browsing and Visualization: MLP Analytics brings this powerful model to life. Users can easily browse packages, objects, functions, and other entities, navigate through relationships and references, and traverse them as deeply as needed, with no depth limit, and filter down to specific call sites or references.

Understanding and Rationalization: With MLP Analytics, users move beyond just browsing code. To understand and express the system’s structure and complexity, they will define architecture components using a simple query DSL to locate specific behavior, understand code dependencies, and analyze the underlying application architecture. Users can view your code through various dimensions, such as subsystems, layers, cross-cutting functions, or any other structural or semantic patterns.

Insights and Drilldown: Identify areas like platform dependencies, DLL access, or code that needs extraction for a modern architecture. Pin elements and use the intuitive divider view to maintain context as you navigate deep into the code.
