Ravensun's unique automation system, KeySys, Identifies, Analyzes, Consolidates & Displays virtually everything about a Mainframe Business Application System.
The information is stored in a Knowledge Repository with standard displays that allow any user to perform basic to complex “mining” activities.
Discovery
How often have you heard questions like the following asked about your existing systems?
* What happens if we change this function?- * Do we use this process?
- * What would it take to expand this field in your system?
- * Do we interface with that other system?
These are typical questions that require "Discovery".
Using the KeySys approach to Discovery provides the answers to these questions in a fraction of the time it would take to do manually, by qualified technicians.
The KeySys Application Viewer provides answers to these and many other questions, at a "mouse-click away".
Design Recovery
"Design Recovery", or automated documentation generation, is useful in providing information that the living documentation would be used for, such as:
- * Training
- * Strategic Planning
- * Pre-project Assessments
The KeySys Application Knowledge Repository, along with the Application Viewer, provides this understanding, visually, with all the drillable details, available in a non-technical, easy-to-use, intuitive display.
Never before has Design Recovery been so easy, and accurate!
Master Data Management
"Master" data, also known as "System-of-Record" data, is the heart of a company's information assets, driving business processing and value. This data is stored in Master Data Stores, often in a variety of formats (flat files, databases, etc.). Although some of these sources are likely to be known, since Master data actually reflects individual elements, certain Master data can be very difficult and manually intensive to identify.
This is where KeySys comes in.
KeySys automatically identifies all Master Data Stores ("Master Files"), as well as which processes use them. And by using Ravensun's tailored automation solutions, master data elements can be presented in a suitable format, along with how they are configured, defined and used (eg, business rules).
Now, Master Data Management can become a reality.
