AWS Transform launches an AI agent for full-stack Windows modernization

AWS Transform is expanding its capability from the .NET modernization agent to now include the full-stack Windows modernization agent that handles both .NET applications and their associated databases. The new agent automates the transformation of .NET applications and Microsoft SQL Server databases to Amazon Aurora PostgreSQL and deploys them to containers on Amazon ECS or Amazon EC2 Linux. AWS Transform accelerates full-stack Windows modernization by 5x across application and database layers, while reducing operating costs by up to 70%.

With AWS Transform, customers can accelerate their full-stack modernization journey through automated discovery, transformation, and deployment. The full-stack Windows modernization agent scans Microsoft SQL Server databases in Amazon EC2 or Amazon RDS instances, and it scans .NET application code from source repositories (GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, or Azure Repos) to create customized, editable modernization plans. It automatically transforms SQL Server schemas to Aurora PostgreSQL and migrates databases to new or existing Aurora PostgreSQL target clusters. For .NET application transformation, the agent updates database connections in the source code and modifies database access code written in Entity Framework and ADO.NET to be compatible with Aurora PostgreSQL—all in a unified workflow with human supervision. All the transformed code is committed to a new repository branch. Finally, the transformed application along with the databases can be deployed into a new or existing environment to validate the transformed applications and databases. Customers can monitor transformation progress through worklog updates and interactive chat, and they can use the detailed transformation summaries for next steps recommendations and for easy handoff to AI code companions.

AWS Transform for full-stack Windows modernization is available in the US East (N. Virginia) AWS Region.
