Case Study: a U.S.-based restaurant chain achieves zero-downtime modernization with Rocket DevOps

U.S.-Based Restaurant Chain achieves zero downtime with Rocket Software

A U.S.-based restaurant chain with over 600 locations faced challenges modernizing its established IBM i back-end system to integrate with a PHP front-end. Outdated green-screen interfaces hindered usability for younger employees, and a lack of change management tools created inefficiencies and operational delays. To address this, the chain partnered with Rocket Software, utilizing its Rocket DevOps lifecycle management tools.

Rocket Software implemented its DevOps tools, including Lifecycle Manager and Deployment Manager, to seamlessly connect the IBM i back-end with the PHP front-end. This solution enabled zero-downtime updates, ensured SOX compliance, and provided a user-friendly interface. The results included smoother operations, improved productivity, and a foundation for future growth without disrupting the customer experience.
