Strategic New Business Initiatives
Payment Security and Payment Services Target : banks and payment processors Why
high risk, low hanging fruit for hackers Banks, payment processors, merchants are being forced to close this gap Saving costs on compliance
Modernisation of Nonstop Applications Target : any Nonstop customer using “legacy” applications Key initiative
to help customers changing the way, how they use and see Nonstop To make Nonstop strategic in the Enterprise (again) To enable development of new services and solutions on HP Nonstop

The Characteristics of Legacy Applications
25+ years old Individual development Not always as well documented as required Historically grown driven by changing business needs Highly specialised including high experience in business processes Usually complex Business critical Considered difficult and expensive to maintain
Skillset Costs
BUT : usually serving the business (=proven)

“Should we keep our current applications and modernize what we can, or move the functionality to “something else” ?
CIO – March 2015
There comes the point, where CIOs ask the question…

What are the options?
• Buy new „industry standard“ solution
• Develop from scratch
• Outsource
• Modernise
• Migrate to other platform

So what means „modernise“ to us ?
Keep using what works well Make these core services available supporting new client models Move to database standards (SQL) Change presentation layer to fulfil today‘s user expectations
OR - in business terms : maximise the business value of the legacy application Addíng flexibility and adoptability to support business agility Improve user experience Improve developer experince
