Fujitsu and EZLegacy will collaborate to widen the capabilities of EZSource to include support for VME (Virtual Machine Environment) applications in order to ensure that VME has cloud capability, said Fujitsu.
EZSource is a suite of tools for application portfolio management, analysis and metric based reporting.
The new capabilities will specifically be for VME COBOL, Application Master and SCL source code.
It is expected to provide the same high levels of applications analysis, measurement and management capabilities available within the existing EZSource product suite and provide significant reductions in development cycles.
EZSource will also provide the ability to understand and analyse cross-platform transactions, said the company.
The offering is expected to provide a single platform to provide analysis and management capabilities across the entire applications portfolio.
Fujitsu head of VME Centre of Excellence George Allt said, "We have made a commitment to our VME customers to support their applications for the long term and to provide a choice for the future through innovative enhancement, integration and modernisation capabilities.
"We believe that partnering with EZLegacy, as a best of breed solution in applications analysis, will help us provide significant value for our VME customers as part of the VME Applications as-a-Service cloud-based solution."
EZLegacy VP Sales Simon Jennings said, "We are excited that these new capabilities will help extend the life and business value of VME-based applications, and help organisations understand and manage their overall applications portfolio. We look forward to working with Fujitsu to provide the benefits of EZSource to a new set of customers."
