Re: Road Map to move a home grown application from RPG to DB2 SQL or to any other data base platform

Idea is to take baby steps to move applications from as/400 to another plat
form..

1. change PF/LFs to SQL tables and indexes.
2. Convert RPG programs to SQL/CLI so that it can be migrated to SQL Server.
3. Convert RPG reports to Tableu/Cognos/Crystal reports
4. Convert DSPF screens to some frame work like Angular JS
5. Migrate everything to another platform/cloud..

Regards

Hi Mohammad,

I am bit confused with your question ...
I have some experience moving SQL server applications to DB2, this
involved to write some RPG code...
I have some experience moving RPG application to Java in a way that they
can be run against "any" database including SQL server or DB2 ... that
could include in the architecture the use of SQL procedure and or triggers


So I wonder if your question on moving RPG to SQL Server would not be more
appropriate on a Microsoft forum ?

Kind Regards,
Paul

Is there anyone who did this kind of project? If yes was there any road
map documentation anyone can share?

Idea is to move RPG code into SQL procedures. Which can be port to cloud
or other platforms or databases like SQL Server.
