Veryant Executive to Speak on COBOL Modernization

MUNICH--(Business Wire)--
Veryant, the COBOL and Java technology innovator, will be a featured presenter
at the COBOL iX Days Conference in Munich, Germany on November 24-25.

Florian Delonge, EMEA Business Development Director for Veryant, will speak on
"Bridging the COBOL to Java Divide". He will present case studies that
demonstrate how organizations with COBOL assets have leveraged existing skills
and resources to natively enable Java programs to access COBOL and vice-versa
without proprietary middleware or time-consuming, risky reengineering. Delonge
will speak about how COBOL application and data investments can be made easily
accessible to SOA, Software as a Service (SaaS) and other initiatives without
sacrificing functionality, retraining staff, or additional complexity.

Delonge, along with the rest of the Veryant staff, are experts in COBOL
maintenance and modernization. The company`s isCOBOL Application Platform Suite
(APS) blends the optimized, business-oriented nature of COBOL with the openness,
portability, and power of the Java platform. This enhances productivity and
eases integration between legacy and new application environments. The isCOBOL
APS Runtime Environment is 100 percent Java, so COBOL applications can be
deployed across multiple platforms using a single code base.

Because existing COBOL code represents a major investment for many companies, it
is important, but increasingly challenging to exploit these assets. In the
presentation, Delonge will discuss how the future lies in open systems,
graphical interfaces, relational database access, Web 2.0 front ends, and SOA.
He will show how to use the COBOL modernization solution, isCOBOL APS, to
protect vital COBOL assets and gain modern efficiencies.

In addition to presenting, Veryant will also be an exhibitor at the COBOL iX
Days Conference. isCOBOL experts will be available during the event for
technical product demonstrations and discussions.
