Hi everyone,
Enrique Murphy, Software Architect at Aleator Software and a long-time MultiValue (MV) developer, has just released a video addressing the biggest challenge facing our community today: MV Application Modernization to meet the demands of the AI Revolution.
We all know the power, robustness, and performance of our MV applications, which have been backbones for decades. But with the shift from simple LLM assistants to transformative Agentic AI, the time to modernize is now.
What is the Real Challenge?
The path to modernization requires exposing MV functionality through APIs (Application Programming Interfaces). We look at tools like Rocket Multivalue Integration Server (MVIS), which is powerful and capable of exposing MV BASIC subroutines as standard RESTful APIs.
However, the video uncovers the two real architectural challenges when trying to build APIs from our traditional MV applications as they are:
-
Business Logic Refactoring: Most existing MV BASIC subroutines were designed for human interaction (usingINPUTstatements) and cannot be exposed in an API. -
Complex JSON Mapping: Implementing API operations requires extensive, tedious, and error-prone manual programmatic mapping between MV dynamic variables and JSON objects.
The Solution: Aleph MV
We spent years bringing modern application architecture patterns directly into the MV environment. Our solution is the Aleph MV Framework. Built upon Rocket MVIS, Aleph MV is a low-code/no-code, AI-assisted framework that lets you:
- Unlock your MV data and functionality with clean, standard RESTful APIs.
- Transform your MV application into a Microservices architecture.
-
Create modern responsive web applications deeply integrated with your MV backend
- Leverage AI Code Assistants and build conversational AI interfaces.
Most critically, the Aleph MV Framework and our methodology let you modernize your application without leaving the MV environment, without disrupting your existing MV application, and without needing to migrate your MV data!
