Good morning , Shapitka

thank u for your  reply.. Yes, the main reason WHY we need to migrate is
basically HPe3000 is no longer going to be supported and strategically, any
Business Operation cannot rely on it for too long and a 'longer term'
Infrastructure must be put in place. As we still have 3 years to make the
right migration move, it is better we make the migration and budget
accordingly in a plan and schedued manner, rather than 'waiting' for the
time-bomb to surface,, who knows when the HPe3000 is going to breakdown...

Throughout the years, we have many customised applications that is serving
our business very well until today, therefore, we will really like to keep
as many applications as possible during the 'porting process' beside the
database...

You mentioned that you had successfuly help your client migrate from our
current environment to HP-UX (I believe is HP9000, UNIX).. with very little
work.... May I know more:-

1) What is the Hardware and HP-UX os version?

2) Are you able to 'port' over the existing Database?
-  If yes, via WHAT tools and to WHAT new database?

3) Are you able to 'port' over the existing  PowerHouse Applications?
-  If Yes, via WHAT tools and to WHAT Applications? (Powerhouse 4GL, WEB,
Axiant?)
-  How much 'reworks' are needed on those 'ported' applications?

4) How much 'redevelopment ' of applications (not portable) are required?
5%, 10% etc?

5) What is your Migration Time-Frame, especially for database and
application 'porting'?

I hope you can provide some insights into the above questions.

Warmest regards.. and have a nice day.

Good Morning, or probably evening by now for you,

This is a wide open question.  You can migrate to anything - given the
right
motivation.

We have moved a client from your environment to HP-UX (very little work),
and another client with the same environment to Axiant\Win 2K over MS SQL
Server 2000 (lots of work).

Why do you need to migrate (other than the HPe3000 eventually not being
supported), and what advantages\opportunities do you wish to realize from
the migration?  Are your users satisfied with their interface, or do you
need a windows interface.  Does your organization wish to stay with HP for
hardware?  Does your organization have a direction set for data base
standardization?  The variables are endless.

Let me know if you would like to discuss some of these options.

Our company is a Cognos PowerHouse Migration Service Partner, and we can
help you make some of these decisions.

G'day folks

I thought the list has been real quite for a while.  It turned out that my
email was somehow dropped from the list!  I hope I didn't miss too much.
