IBM WebSphere Multichannel Bank Transformation Toolkit, Version 7.1
Migration approaches
IBM® WebSphere® Multichannel Bank
Transformation Toolkit provides
three migration approaches. For more information on each migration
approach, refer to the following topics.
Direct mode migration
The direct mode of migration is suitable for most customers.
The direct mode of migration involves changing application code, including
definition XML files, JSP files, and reference libraries, to comply
with the IBM WebSphere Multichannel Bank
Transformation Toolkit version 7.1 specifications.
Mixed mode migration
The mixed mode of migration is suitable if you are using
Swing client code. In mixed mode of migration, you can keep existing
Swing client code while upgrading server-side code through the direct
mode of migration.
Compatible Mode Migration
In compatible mode migration, you can keep all the application
code without any changes and recompile it with new JDK version that
is supported by IBM WebSphere Multichannel Bank
Transformation Toolkit version 7.1. If
you want your applications to run on WebSphere Multichannel
Bank Transformation Toolkit version 7.1 while
having the minimum application code changes, you can adopt the compatible
mode migration. The compatible mode of migration is suitable for passive
customers.
