    Porting services from VMS to OSF is now considered "Phase B" of our
    porting services offering.  I was unable to get a target date as to 
    when this service will be available.  It is NOT available today.  We
    currently port only VMS to VMS.
    
    For additional information, call DTN 264-8990 or (800)832-8990.

182.3ARAM Services has solutions TODAY!ACESMK::MEYERProd Mgt - Alpha Migration ServicesThu Mar 04 1993 18:2640
    Application Reengineering and Migration (ARAM) Services is a
    Digital Services group that, through the 10 U.S. Application
    Migration Centers (AMCs) and the worldwide AMC is providing
    application migration services from a number of platforms to
    the Alpha environment.

    We currently have MIPS ULTRIX cross tools that run on MIPS
    ULTRIX and create Alpha executables.  We also have VAX/VMS to
    OpenVMS migration tools that run on VAX/VMS.

    For a VMS to DEC OSF/1 solution, we are currently working on a VMS
    to DEC OSF/1 porting guide.  The guide will be available for
    INTERNAL USE in April. It will be available for customer use some
    time after April. For native mode ports, the AMCs are trained and
    experienced in delivering porting projects - and they are
    available _today_.  In addition, we are working on an agreement to
    'reference sell' the Accelr8 suite of tools.  Accelr8 offers a
    VMS-like environment on DEC OSF/1 and allows VMS applications to
    run on DEC OSF/1.  Accelr8 runs on Sun and HP also.

    We are currently working on providing a solution for SUn
    application migrations and integration/coexistence.  We are
    working on a Migration Guide, an Integration Guide, and looking
    for third party tools that can be used for porting applications.
    We are also defining services.  However, the AMCs are trained and
    can deliver solutions _today_.

    Very soon we will be working on an HP to DEC OSF/1 solution.

    We are always looking for field feedback on our services.  Also,
    if you know of any tools in existence related to the above
    migration paths, please contact me.
    
    For more information regarding the above services, please contact
    me.
