The IBM® WebSphere Application Server Migration Toolkit helps you move traditional WebSphere Application Server applications to Liberty, which can be running inside or outside of the cloud. The migration toolkit scans your application source code and highlights Java EE programming model and WebSphere API differences between the servers. It offers advice and potential solutions to assess the ease of moving applications to Liberty. It also informs you about any implementation differences that could affect your applications. Where possible, it provides quick fixes to make the application changes for you. When moving an application to a cloud deployment, the Cloud Migration Tool offers additional advice and best practices for your applications. For example, it will warn about using the Java File I/O API for storing persistent information on the local file system. Also provided is a reporting tool that quickly scans your application and generates a visual report that shows which editions of WebSphere Application Server are best suited for the application. The report is an inventory of Java EE programming models that are used by the application. It indicates whether the application can be supported by WebSphere Application Server full profile or Liberty profile. Learn more through our youtube video.
