Updraft is a Chicago-based company providing automated software modernization tools to companies and systems integrators (SIs) needing exceptionally high quality code when modernizing complex, business-critical legacy software assets. With a proven thousand fold reduction in code defects compared to manual methods, UniqueSoft’s D*Code tool platform automates 90 percent of modernization tasks, enabling companies in telecom, financial services, public sector, and other industries to undertake their large legacy modernization projects with confidence. Applying model-driven techniques, our D*CODE automated tool platform transforms the way companies and their SIs analyze and modernize legacy systems. In effect, D*CODE functions as a software engineering expert system to complement the domain knowledge of the SI, while at the same time automating the most tedious and time consuming modernization tasks. This frees up the SI team to focus on what they do best (systems strategy and architecture), while our automated, model-driven methods evolve old, inflexible systems to modern platforms and languages, extract even the most complex business rules, and enable quick and accurate migration of legacy systems to a microservices architecture or the cloud. Add to that the flexibility of D*Code to be customized to match the specific needs of the customer, and it is no wonder that UniqueSoft made the 2018 CIOReview's 20 Most Promising Technologies list. The quality and flexibility D*Code offers has allowed many of UniqueSoft’s Fortune 1000 clients to move forward with modernization projects, knowing that D*Code will uncover buried code functionality, allow rapid capture and change of business rules, and streamline migrating legacy systems to microservices architecture or the cloud.
