INSIGHT AMS
Software maintenance is the most vital support system for a robust IT environment for business operations. It is estimated that there are more than 100 Billion lines of code in production in the world and as much as 80% of it is unstructured, patched and not well documented. Maintenance can alleviate these problems.
Metalogic launched Insight-AMS in 2010. It is a web-based legacy system management solution, that:
Automates critical steps of software maintenance life cycle process.
Ensures module level access control.
Supports wide range of legacy platforms.
Insight AMS is designed for documentation and maintenance of legacy applications. The product reverse engineers legacy application source assets and produces technical documentations in a web interface. It provides for reporting at various levels of complexities and also allows for impact analysis and mass changes across codebase. It can be used as a maintenance support for quick KT and impact analysis as well as in the assessment phase of modernization projects for inventory and complexity assessment. With its user friendly interface and powerful functionalities ranging from inventory analysis, cross reference reports and complexity analysis to structure charts, flow diagrams and business rule extraction facility, it enables customers re-discover their “real” application assets, prepare documentation and “productively” manage them.

Japanese language support.
Metalogic‘s Insight AMS solution can be implemented without materially disrupting current operations or replacing current administrative systems, providing a lower cost, shorter implementation time, and lower risk than other software packages or traditional software development approaches. One of the key differentiators of Insight AMS is its capability to assess and report impact of changes in the application components with their locations. The Bulk Change facility automates execution of the modifications.

Some of the key benefits of the tool:

Wide range of features to support application support, maintenance and transformation (modernization and migration) project teams.
Comprehensive application analysis with Metalogic‘s proprietary Power-ParserTM.
Helps prepare application documentation.
Pre-filtered impact analyses helps categorization of business impacts and quicken identification of modifications required.
Improves productivity of application support and maintenance teams.
Comprehensive cross-reference reports .
Detailed program analysis and CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) reports.
Control Flow (CFG), Pseudo code and Structure chart of Program.

An analysis of comparative analysis tools available in the market demonstrates that Insight AMS is far superior to all other similar off the shelf products.
