Rapid Portfolio Analysis for Cloud Migration

Pinpoint best application Cloud migration path, required code changes, and effort. Automatically.

Less than 40% of cloud migrations succeed when using
subjective, survey-based application assessments.*

 

Decisions on which applications to migrate are being made using gut instincts and subjective information causing unexpected roadblocks and migrations that are taking years to complete. And, if an organization does decide to invest the time to truly analyze their application readiness for migration to PaaS, it could take an architect weeks or even months to assess a single application.

CAST Highlight can assess Cloud Readiness of 100s of applications in days, using objective data to ensure accuracy.

 

CAST Highlight automatically analyzes application source code of an entire application portfolio to develop a fact-based roadmap to the cloud.

Organizations can rapidly segment and prioritize applications using the Cloud Ready Index** based on specific patterns found automatically in application source code that could prevent (Blockers) or accelerate (Boosters) cloud migration.

**Cloud Ready Index: A metric calculated by CAST Highlight on a scale of 0 – 100 that measures how ready an application is to be migrated to the cloud in a PaaS (Platform as a Service) state.

 

Benefits

  • Prioritize cloud candidates based on both technical and business impacts
  • Spot and fix Cloud Blockers that slow down migration and help adopt containers faster
  • Identify Cloud Boosters to take advantage of cloud native capabilities
  • Detect open source component risks that should be addressed before migration

With CAST Highlight you can:

 

Automatically Segment App Portfolios for Cloud Migration.
IN SECONDS.

Automatically build an objective migration roadmap across an entire application portfolio in seconds using the Portfolio Advisor for Cloud. Segment and prioritize each application into categories such as Rehost, Refactor, Rearchitect, Rebuild, or Retire.

Automatically Segment App Portfolios for Cloud Migration. IN SECONDS.

Pinpoint Cloud Migration Blockers & Boosters.
BASED ON FACTS.

Automatically identify Blockers (e.g., Persistent File Usage, COM Components, etc.) and Boosters (e.g., use of a web configuration file, MySQL, etc.). Get accurate guidance on exactly where each of the Blockers occur within the code of each application. Learn how to remediate these Blockers before migration instead of using subjective estimates to ensure a more successful and faster migration.

Pinpoint Cloud Migration Blockers & Boosters. Based on facts.

Accelerate Cloud Containerization.
BASED ON FACTS.

Automatically discover specific source code patterns that prevent adoption of containers and get precise recommendations on how to remove these container blockers.

    
Accelerate Cloud Containerization. BASED ON FACTS.

Identify Suitable Cloud Services.
BASED ON FACTS.

Get recommendations on the specific cloud native platform services that are good candidates for an application to utilize once migrated to the cloud for Microsoft Azure, AWS, Google Cloud, and IBM Cloud.

    
Identify Suitable Cloud Services. BASED ON FACTS.

Understand & Mitigate Open Source Risks.
IN REAL TIME.

Automatically perform Software Composition Analysis (SCA) to detect all open source components in use throughout the portfolio and the associated risks. Identify security vulnerabilities, open source licensing risks, or obsolete components that need to be addressed or upgraded before a migration in minutes versus the weeks it would take using manual code reviews.

Understand & Mitigate Open Source Risks. In Real Time.

Ensure Multi-Cloud Readiness.
BASED ON FACTS.

Receive automated insights on the specific cloud patterns in applications that make it easier to be deployed across multiple cloud platforms.
