AWS Launches Agentic AI Service to Speed Enterprise Workload Migration by 4x
AWS Transform is now generally available, helping enterprises accelerate cloud migration and modernization projects using AI agents for VMware, mainframe, and .NET workloads.
Amazon Web Services (AWS) has launched AWS Transform, a new agentic AI service designed to accelerate enterprise workload migration and modernization by up to 4x faster than traditional methods. The service, now generally available, targets VMware, mainframe, and .NET workloads, addressing the bottleneck in cloud transformation projects that typically take 18+ months.
Key Features:
- .NET Modernization: Ports Windows-based .NET applications to Linux, reducing licensing costs by 40% and cutting 70% of modernization effort
- Mainframe Transformation: Decomposes COBOL applications into cloud-ready components in minutes instead of months
- VMware Automation: Converts on-premises VMware configurations to AWS equivalents 80x faster than manual approaches
"By using AWS Transform for .NET... we reduced 70% of the modernization effort, with 100% success." — Enrique Zazueta, Grupo Tress Internacional
How It Works:
The service uses:
- Specialized AI agents with chat interfaces
- Graph Neural Networks for dependency analysis
- Automated code transformation and testing
- Unified web dashboard for team collaboration
Customer Impact:
- Nomura Research Institute cut mainframe analysis time from 1 month to 1 week
- SourceFuse reported 90% faster execution and 80% less manual effort in VMware migrations
