Morres Wonen cut application costs by 50% after migrating from a mainframe environment
Morres Wonen is one of the largest chains of furniture retailers in the Netherlands. Over the past 30 years, it had developed a complete suite of applications running on a mainframe.
Challenge
Morres Wonen wanted to reduce the growing costs and risks of operating in a mainframe environment without having to rewrite all its applications - which would be costly in the short term and disruptive for the business.
Solution
Getronics recommended application replatforming - that is, moving from a mainframe to a server environment without immediately rewriting applications.
