Upgrading COBOL is often delayed due to lack of visibility into COBOL inventory, fear of recompiling stable applications, complex dependencies, and limited skilled resources. In this session, you’ll learn how COBOL Upgrade Advisor (CUAZ) removes these barriers by providing clear insight into your COBOL estate, AI‑assisted problem determination for invalid data, AI‑assisted source conversion when upgrading to the latest COBOL standard, and an end‑to‑end upgrade workflow for modernizing legacy applications. Discover how CUAZ makes COBOL upgrades faster, safer, and more predictable, setting the foundation for modernization with Enterprise COBOL 6.
