Newsletter - Thursday, 04. December 2025

Dear Reader,

are you an active IBM IMS user? Have you noticed that these databases have reliably and efficiently performed their job for decades, but are increasingly perceived as a burden, whether because expertise is dwindling, collaboration with newer technologies is becoming more difficult, or platform migrations and application modernizations are being hindered or even prevented? Then we have the perfect solution for you with the AMELIO Modernization Platform. A solution that is precisely tailored to your requirements, reduces your (testing) efforts, and also lowers the risk of lengthy project durations and additional costs. We presented the magic behind it at the ceCMG Autumn Conference and have a brief summariy ready for you. Just in time for St. Nicholas Day, we have some news about Delta ADS for you:

• The Delta ADS target for the P3/COBOL target system has been released, opening the door to the Java world.
• The new ADS release 6.6.9 is now available.
• New dates for Delta ADS training courses in 2026 have been announced.

We hope you enjoy reading this!
