Architecture Analysis

Architecture analysis is the key to modernization success

Even if you keep pace with IBM i software and Power Systems hardware updates, the foundation underneath them also needs to be strong. If your architectural practices and coding standards aren’t modern, it’s impossible to have a truly modern business.

A modern business needs a modern foundation

Your architectural practices and coding standards should include a well-designed SQL database with security and integrity built in. Profound Logic’s experts assess that foundation as part of the Profound 360 Analysis service—so your modernization effort starts from solid ground.

What’s Included

A clear-eyed look at where your architecture stands

Analyze your current state

Map the real architecture of your IBM i applications, database, and coding standards as they exist today—not as the documentation describes them.

Analyze transformation gaps

Pinpoint where your practices diverge from a modern, well-designed SQL database with the security and integrity your business depends on.

Identify transformation opportunities

Surface the highest-value places to modernize—and sequence them so each step builds on the last.

Build on the most modern foundation possible

Ensure your business runs on an architecture ready for web, AI, and integration—not one that holds it back.

How It Works

Part of the Profound 360 Analysis

  1. Assess the current state

    Our experts review your existing architecture, database design, and coding standards to establish a clear baseline.

  2. Measure the gaps

    We compare today’s practices against modern standards for SQL design, security, and data integrity.

  3. Map the opportunities

    You receive a prioritized view of where transformation delivers the most value to your business.

  4. Plan the foundation

    We help you chart a path to the most modern foundation possible—ready for whatever comes next.

This isn’t modernization – it’s futurization. Your IBM i investment becomes more valuable, not obsolete.

Outcomes

Start modernization with confidence

  • An honest, expert assessment of your IBM i architecture’s current state
  • A clear understanding of the gaps between your practices and modern standards
  • A prioritized roadmap of transformation opportunities
  • A well-designed SQL database approach with security and integrity at its core
  • Confidence that every modernization investment builds on solid ground

Keeping software and hardware current isn’t enough. A truly modern business needs modern architectural practices and coding standards beneath it.
