Introduction
For modern enterprises, digital transformations are no longer an ‘if’ but a definitive ‘when’.
In today’s ever-changing digital world, IT teams need to deliver high-quality products and services faster than ever before. One of the major risks enterprises face while they modernize their IT landscape is missing the critical functionalities (business or technical) of newer systems. Applications developed decades ago will suffer from insufficient documentation and subject matter experts. Analyzing and understanding such applications to understand the current requirements is a prerequisite for recreating them in newer/modern technology.
TCS MasterCraftTM is a patented, intelligent automation product powered by GenAI that accelerates software development, modernization, and service delivery while assuring trust in their enterprise data.
Our products
Our capabilities help enterprises understand their applications and accelerate transformation using intelligent automation powered by GenAI.
TCS MasterCraftTM takes an AI-first approach toward application modernization by augmenting several of its core capabilities with AI/ GenAI capabilities.
Based on business objectives, enterprises can leverage TCS MasterCraftTM to optimize their transformation strategies, such as re-platforming, refactoring, rearchitecting, or replacing.
Identifying the application's existing IT landscape is essential to initiating modernization. Through intelligent application analysis of legacy systems and the creation of knowledge repositories, enterprises can provide data to drive their modernization decisions.
Drivers for modernization:
- Changing business models
- Reduce technical debt
- Greater scalability and distributed processing
- Increased agility to adapt
- Quicker time-to-market
- Cost saving
Major challenges enterprises face during modernization:
- Unavailability of legacy application documents
- Lack of SMEs
- Higher total cost of ownership
- Integration between internal and external systems
- Internal/external compliance and regulatory challenges
- Evolving business needs
Our capability
TCS MasterCraftTM provides seamless execution through an ‘analyze-strategize-execute’ approach.
- Leverage the decision engine, powered by GenAI, to analyze the code and provide 360-degree insights to determine the modernization roadmap and approaches
- Translate the cryptic denominations in the code to standardized domain terms by neural network model and break down the programs logically in an optimized size consumable by large language models (LLM)
- Automatically pull application knowledge from the source code to document the functional and technical specifications, extract business rules, and create code summary for each program block using the knowledge engine
- Generate code from the business summary created automatically using the AI agent available in the product
- Create and execute the test cases with automation powered by an AI agent
- Build, package, and deploy the applications from the generated components to desired target environments
Key highlights
AI agent-assisted transformation – Seamless transformation of legacy applications with cutting-edge intelligence from code analysis to code generation of the application
Proprietary neural network model - Translate the cryptic data elements into a meaningful business term from the code for hassle-free transformation
Golden knowledge repository - Automatically produces a repository of holistic knowledge about the application and data from the source code
