Running mission-critical applications on legacy servers is increasingly costly and exposes your enterprise to the risks of downtime, security breaches, and even catastrophic data loss. But full migration of legacy applications can also be risky and expensive, including the cost of retraining users.
Stromasys offers an easier, more cost-effective option: Charon® emulation software for legacy VAX, Alpha, PA-RISC, and SunSPARC systems. Charon solutions make it easy to re-host your legacy software stack to modern servers, either on-premises or in the cloud. You get dramatic performance improvements while eliminating maintenance costs and capitalizing on the latest security and disaster recovery paradigms — all in a matter of days

The Tru64, VMS, MPE, and Solaris operating systems remain the same. The applications continue to run unchanged. The emulation runs in Windows or Linux. There is no expensive migration process, no software re-engineering or conversion, no training for system managers or users required, and no painful conversion of normal business practices.
