Since we developed our OpenVMS migration toolkit in 1987. Sector7 has successfully migrated over 500 major corporations to varying UNIX and Linux derivative platforms.

We developed our OpenVMS migration toolkit in 1987 [which was based upon our PDP-11 RSTS migration tools kit].
When DEC launched Alpha and OSF/1, they contracted with Sector7 to license copies of Sector7 DCL and PRINT and BATCH Queue Manager and distribute these products with the original OSF/1 CD-ROM.

Sector7 IS the thought leader in the business of application migration technologies and processes. We innovate migration process are always spearheading the next generation of tools and processes.
While successfully migrating PDP-11, HP-3000 and OpenVMS applications to UNIX and Linux, we were asked to provide a world wide UNIX to UNIX server consolidation practice to IBM. This practice eventually became known as IBM's Migration Factory,
Being Awarded a Patent was very 'cool' but, more than 'cool' it took a significant amount of work to rationalize the Migration Process into a mathematical model. Without such a model, you cannot have a scalable repeatable process. Without a model and scalable process it becomes “guess work” with no "rigor" to support the estimates.
