Amazon Q Developer is now capable of modernizing Windows .NET applications to Linux up to four times faster, with a potential reduction in licensing costs of up to 40%. The tool simplifies the transformation of VMware (NYSE:VMW) workloads to AWS, converting on-premises network configurations into AWS equivalents in a fraction of the traditional time. For mainframe modernization, Amazon Q Developer streamlines complex tasks like code analysis and refactoring, which can significantly reduce the time and cost associated with these projects.

Several customers and partners, including ADP, Amdocs (NASDAQ:DOX), Cognizant (NASDAQ:CTSH), and Toyota Motor (NYSE:TM) North America, have utilized Amazon Q Developer to accelerate their migration efforts.
