VMware Converter was a simple to use and very convenient software, since it allowed to generate virtual machines starting from physical ones.
Application Transformer for VMware Tanzu is a tool that helps developers discover, analyze and “containerize” legacy applications. Basically, a program designed to speed up app modernization processes. What does it mean? In concrete terms, instead of having a heavy operating system that manages one or more applications in a monolithic way, the aim is to have more streamlined applications, which exploit only the necessary services, which through containers are generated and destroyed automatically when necessary, optimizing the use of resources.
However, the application modernization process is complicated and can take a long time. Application Transformer on Tanzu allows you to simplify this process. It takes care of automatically obtaining information about the app, such as the folder structure, the name of the files, the processes it uses. Put simply, it guarantees visibility into the application environment, whether it runs on Linux or runs on Windows.
After understanding the topology of the app, this tool is able to show developers the various dependencies, helping them understand which components to prioritize in the modernization phase.
At this point he is able to create Docker or Kubernets files and images ready to use on OCI, automating a good part of the process.
