Hi everyone,
I wanted to share a concise "blueprint" for modernizing legacy MultiValue systems without the high risk and cost of a full rewrite. We built an MV modernization framework, and developed a strategy to gradually evolve green-screen, terminal-oriented applications into API-driven architectures and applications using the Strangler Fig Pattern.
Key highlights of this approach:
-
No Data Migration: Keep your data exactly where it is while using Rocket MVIS to expose it via standard APIs.
-
Leverage Existing Skills: No need to learn new languages or complex stacks; the framework builds directly on your existing MV logic.
-
Minimal Risk & Cost: Modernize incrementally at a fraction of the cost of a migration.
-
Team Renewal: A "symbiotic" model that pairs veteran MV experts with new-gen developers to bridge the talent gap.
We’ve put together a short video walking through the architecture of the framework, and how to start the transition:

I'm curious—for those of you facing modernization pressure, are you looking at gradual evolution or are you being pushed toward full migrations?
