Claim: migrate legacy systems onto Postgres and you get SQL/ODBC/JDBC/REST access day one while keeping original behavior. Implementation: build a driver that intercepts old platform calls, add a DB API, move schemas into Postgres and optionally pair with Axelor for web/mobile UI. Outcome: a 400-program COBOL app runs unchanged yet five slow jobs drop from ~30 minutes to under a minute; estimated developer effort falls up to 80% and compliance, extensibility and hiring become practical.
