E. Miroglio, a global leader in textiles with operations across Europe and Asia, faced major challenges with an aging, costly, and inflexible application environment. Their IT team struggled with:
- 5,000 daily batch jobs requiring manual intervention
- Limited flexibility for innovation
- High infrastructure costs
To overcome these hurdles, E. Miroglio partnered with Rocket Software to modernize their platform using Rocket® Enterprise Server. The transformation included:
- Migrating to a flexible x86-based Linux platform with zero downtime
- Reusing over 12,000 COBOL programs
- Converting UNIX shell scripts back to JCL for easier management
Results:
- 90% performance improvement in some departments
- 50% faster batch processing
- 50% infrastructure cost savings
This case study is a great example of modernization without disruption, proving that legacy systems can evolve to meet today’s business demands.
