Capability & roadmap

Every vendor in this market over-claims. This page is the antidote: what is available today, what is in build with a date, what is gated on a real engagement by policy, and what is roadmap with a named trigger. A copy of this page ships with every proposal.

Available today

Environmentstraining seats, dev seats, project test sandboxes, dedicated single-tenant instances (hosted / BYOC / on-prem), demo estates, modernization rehearsal mirrors, the conformance bench
CoursesCS100 + CS105 self-paced; CS110–CS310 + ops track cohort/corporate (see catalog for per-course status)
ISO 20022 toolkitassessment + bench: schema validation (differentially proven, 104 cases), mapping equivalence, control-total completeness, citation-backed findings, offline reports
Seam Analyzerlayout diff vs deployed configs, decode preview, PL/SQL lineage (coverage % + UNRESOLVED printed), cross-platform batch DAG, risk register, interactive explorer
Replay & golden-run verificationbaseline execution, differential replay with evidence-cited divergences, fixture-capture protocol
Support & maintenancetestbed-scope support for licensed environments: you report defects, we fix them in patches and versioned releases, upgrades included while support is active, severity-based response targets. The production-grade SLA is still a production gate (below). See licensing & support

In build

Reports & output as a serviceOracle Reports adapter first — the support clock is real: error-correction support ended Sep 2024, Premier ends Dec 2026. DDS printer files and mainframe SYSOUT follow. Byte-comparable output, regulatory returns first.

Engagement-gated — by policy, not immaturity

Requirements for these crystallize per estate and per rail; building them speculatively produces shelfware. Two adapters with reference customers beat eight without.

Client-private — by request

Agent access (MCP)CobolStack environments and verification tooling exposed to a client's AI agents as governed MCP tools (OAuth 2.1/PKCE, audience-bound tokens, single-tenant, audited, evidence-bearing responses). Enabled per client under their security review; never self-serve. See the MCP page for the tool surface and services for the engagement.

Roadmap — with named triggers

DRDA proxycallers keep issuing Db2 calls; a modern database answers — triggered by the first coexistence engagement
IBM i journal CDClog-based capture via the published journal API — design-partner-gated
CI runner packagingPR-gated compile/test from GitHub/GitLab — on customer pull
Observability collectorOpenTelemetry out of z/OS- and IBM i-class estates — on demand signal
SAS exit-with-proofnumerically verified SAS → Python/R — demand-ranked
Production runtimetargeted end-2027, gated on all five criteria: staffed production support model · written production SLA with liability cover · source escrow · one reference workload 90+ days in production · completed security assessment. Until all five hold, it is a testbed and we will call it a testbed, and the licence covers testbed use only. Testbed-scope support & maintenance, with response targets, exists today; the production-grade SLA with liability cover and source escrow do not yet.

If it's not on this page, we don't sell it.
