Case Study: Leading Insurance Firm achieves faster agent portal integration with OpenLegacy

Leading Insurance Firm launches innovative agent portal connected to core iSeries application

Leading Insurance Firm, a major publicly traded insurer, needed to speed up its agent portal by integrating more transactions from its core iSeries system without rewriting COBOL code. The company wanted a faster time to market and a more modern user experience, while meeting strict security and performance requirements. OpenLegacy’s iSuite solution was chosen to help connect the legacy backend to the portal.

OpenLegacy enabled Leading Insurance Firm to expose complex iSeries transactions as REST APIs in just hours, with no COBOL changes. The solution passed security and performance testing, supported thousands of concurrent users, and let the company deploy several business processes into the portal within days instead of weeks or months, improving agent productivity and reducing costs through a cloud-deployed, non-invasive approach.
