"During re:Invent, AWS today announced updates for AWS Transform. This is a service it has built to tackle so-called tech debt within organizations. AWS claims that the new (agentic) additions make it even faster and easier to modernize and migrate outdated environments. AWS Transform is not new. The company announced the service earlier this year. The idea is simple: many organizations are stuck with outdated applications and stacks. These need to be brought up to date. However, that is easier said than done. In practice,"
"it takes a lot of time and human effort, for example because the documentation is very limited or non-existent, but also because transferring code from one framework to another is not a straightforward process. According to AWS, the first version of AWS Transform ( made generally available earlier this year) has already yielded considerable results. AWS claims that it has already analyzed some 1.1 billion lines of code. That is the equivalent of more than 810,000 hours of manual work."
AWS Transform targets organizational technical debt by automating analysis and modernization of legacy applications and stacks. The service focuses on .NET, complete Microsoft stacks, VMware environments, and mainframes, and provides ready-made transformations for Java, Node.js, and Python. The initial release analyzed about 1.1 billion lines of code, equivalent to over 810,000 hours of manual work. New agentic capabilities include a custom extension enabling organizations to define desired outputs so agents can modernize custom code and applications. The custom transformations increase scalability and reduce manual effort involved in documentation gaps and framework migrations.
