Description

CAST Imaging transforms software understanding by automatically reconstructing and visualizing the full architecture of an application from the source code. It identifies every object, interface, data structure, framework, and dependency across more than 150 technologies. AI-driven summaries highlight how transactions execute, where components interact, and where structural flaws or modernization opportunities exist. Teams can model "what-if" scenarios, evaluate change impact, and validate architectural design before any code is touched. CAST Imaging also accelerates cloud and microservices transformations by exposing decoupling candidates and hidden interdependencies. Developers, architects, and onboarding teams gain a single source of truth that replaces outdated documentation and tribal knowledge. Whether deployed on cloud or on-premises, it offers a secure, scalable environment for deep analysis. CAST Imaging ultimately helps organizations modernize faster, reduce rework, and govern software quality with clarity and precision.

Description

Visual Expert is a static code analyzer for Oracle PL/SQL, SQL Server T-SQL and PowerBuilder. It identifies code dependencies to let you modify the code without breaking your application. It also scans your code to detect security flaws, quality, performance and maintenability issues. Identify breaking changes with impact analysis. Scan the code to find security vulnerabilities, bugs and maintenance issues. Integrate continuous code inspection in a CI workflow. Understand the inner workings and document your code with call graphs, code diagrams, CRUD matrices, and object dependency matrices (ODMs). Automatically generate source code documentation in HTML format. Navigate your code with hyperlinks. Compare two pieces of code, databases or entire applications. Improve maintainability. Clean up code. Comply with development standards. Analyze and improve database code performance: Find slow objects and SQL queries, optimize a slow object, a call chain, a slow SQL query, display a query execution plan.
