Enabling Cloud-First Future With Rocket^® Enterprise Suite

Company

Industry: Technology

Softlab S.p.a. is a premier Italian information and communication technology company. They partnered with Rocket Software to assist Groupama Assicurazioni, a leading insurance provider, in modernizing their mission-critical IT infrastructure and finalizing their cloud-first strategy.

Challenge

Groupama Assicurazioni faced pressure to modernize its IT systems and maintain reliability. They needed to complete a complex cloud migration for a mission-critical application within a strict one-year timeframe.

Groupama Assicurazioni needed to finalize its cloud-first strategy against a strict 12-month deadline. The most complex piece was migrating a massive legacy application comprising 2.5 million lines of code and 2,200 COBOL programs to Google Cloud. Softlab needed to replicate the extreme reliability of a mainframe in a distributed environment without disrupting service for Groupama Assicurazioni’s customers.

Solution

To accelerate the migration and minimize manual effort, Softlab used Rocket Enterprise Suite to automate complex processes. The partnership delivered a seamless, high-speed transition for Groupama Assicurazioni without sacrificing reliability or performance.

To meet this deadline, Softlab leveraged Rocket Enterprise Suite. Rocket^® Enterprise Analyzer provided an automated code review to resolve dependencies early. Rocket^® Enterprise Developer offered a familiar workspace that flattened the learning curve, while Rocket^® Enterprise Server ensured a high-performance environment. When unique hurdles arose, Field Developed Solutions helped the team bypass them without costly rewrites.

Results

The project led to a seamless migration, early ROI, and continuous uptime. Groupama Assicurazioni now has a resilient, cloud-first system that surpasses performance targets, safeguards business continuity, and unlocks new growth potential.

The unified team completed the massive migration and decommissioned the mainframe hardware exactly on schedule. Groupama Assicurazioni achieved a rapid breakeven point very early by utilizing automated re-platforming tools. Most importantly, the new claims management system experienced zero major downtime during its first year of production, protecting business continuity.
