Skilled in Code Translation
Computer Code Translation - COBOL to PL/SQL
Do you have legacy code that you would like to translate to another language?
Avalon are currently translating Pro*Cobol to Oracle's PL/SQL.
Our flexible translation process can be used to translate many different languages.
Our translation service is proven to provide exact, robust, performant and readable target code. We have proven our COBOL to Oracle PL/SQL translator works in a production environment; the code was 100% accurate during parallel testing and roughly 60% faster than the previous code.
Translating from one language to another is a complex task, especially when the features of the source language do not exist in the target language. However, intelligent translation is possible with knowledgeable people who have extensive understanding and coding experience of the source and target languages.
Code Translation is one of those tasks that you rarely plan to do. There are many reasons and benefits to translate, the main being cost reduction and consolidation of platform and skills.
Code Translation from COBOL to Oracle PL/SQL.
Performance improvements of over 60% have been achieved when translating COBOL to PL/SQL.
Oracle's tools allow all code paths to be tested and proven.
Consolidate to your existing Oracle skills.
Multiple Operating Systems. PL/SQL executes on every platform that an Oracle database can be installed.
No COBOL licence fees; use your existing Oracle licence.
Translate over 99% of all COBOL Code.
Replace files and reports with database tables. Reporting can use Oracle's Fulltext Search (Oracle Text).
Reduce context switches between languages. The overhead of SQL calls from the host language is reduced.
Benefit from PL/SQL's built in performance and tuning functionality.
Our extensive experience of COBOL and PL/SQL ensures reliable translation.

Do you want to see examples of our code translation? Send us some of your source code and we will convert it for you, for free to prove it can be done.
We are a UK company based at the e-innovation Centre, Wolverhampton University, Telford, TF2 9FT, UK.
Our current focus is Code Translation; however we have been developing software for over 25 years.
Our language translation software successfully converted COBOl to PL/SQL in a project that was implemented to a client's live systems in November 2017.
Our Data Migration and Data Migration Audit development tools have been used since 2004 by a major UK Life Assurance Company.
