Case Study: a prominent wholesale food service supplier achieves faster, lower-cost operations with Programmers.io's COBOL to SQL migration

a prominent wholesale food service supplier cuts COBOL batch jobs from 30+ minutes with Programmers.io

Programmers.io worked with a prominent wholesale food service supplier to address challenges stemming from their legacy Mainframe COBOL system. The client was facing inefficient performance with long batch job times, high operational costs due to expensive licensing fees, and difficulties with troubleshooting and data accessibility.

The solution from Programmers.io involved converting the COBOL programs into SQL stored procedures and migrating the data to SQL Server. This included creating robust error tracking and automated job scheduling. The results were a significant reduction in job execution times, lowered operational costs, and enhanced error tracking and data accessibility for the client.
