IBM celebrates a significant milestone as Blue Pearl leverages an agentic AI-powered software development partner to accelerate the modernization of their legacy Java codebase.
IBM Bob is helping enterprises shift from traditional AI-assisted coding to AI-assisted software delivery. The agentic AI-first development partner not only helps developers write code fast but also works across the full software development lifecycle (SDLC), from planning and coding to testing, deployment, and modernization, with the governance and security controls enterprises need.
Blue Pearl, a cloud solutions and consulting services company, adopted IBM Bob to modernize components of its BlueApp platform strengthening the platform’s technical foundation and completing a full Java uplift approximately 90% faster. By leveraging IBM Bob’s intelligent modernization capabilities, the company completed a Java upgrade project that would traditionally take approximately thirty (30) days in just three (3) days, preserving more than 160 engineering hours while achieving zero defects post-deployment. Blue Pearl also reported approximately 15% faster response times across key workflows, while the move to a modern Long-Term Support baseline helped strengthen the platform’s overall security posture.
