MongoDB’s AMP Platform marks a bold step forward in application modernization. By combining AI-powered tooling with MongoDB’s flexible data model, AMP accelerates the transformation of legacy applications into scalable, cloud-ready services. Enterprises that once faced multi-year, resource-heavy modernization projects can now achieve results in a fraction of the time — cutting costs and fueling innovation.
But one challenge remains: how to connect enterprise data from legacy platforms into MongoDB, seamlessly and in real time.
Enter VirtualZ Computing.
Why Enterprise Data Integration Matters for MongoDB Modernization
Modernization isn’t just about applications — it’s about data. Enterprises run critical workloads on diverse systems: IBM Z mainframes, IBM i, VSE, Linux, UNIX, Windows, and more. These platforms generate decades of transactional, operational, and customer data that is still central to daily operations.
Without an efficient way to bring this data into MongoDB, organizations risk:
- Data silos that slow innovation.
- Batch delays that limit AI and analytics.
- Compliance gaps from fragmented event logging.
- Ongoing costs from legacy ETL and middleware.
To fully unlock MongoDB AMP, enterprises need real-time, governed access to all enterprise data across every platform.
VirtualZ Solutions for MongoDB
VirtualZ delivers out-of-the-box, no-code integration between enterprise platforms and MongoDB with two complementary products:
Lozen™: Real-Time, Secure Data Access
- Query enterprise data (mainframe, IBM i, UNIX, and more) directly from MongoDB, without replication.
- Enforce security policies with fine-grained access controls.
- Eliminate batch delays — make live transactional data instantly available.
PropelZ™: Transform and Stream Data to MongoDB
PropelZ expands beyond the mainframe. Each license is specific to a single OS, enabling enterprises to cover all their platforms with unlimited use at a flat fee.
Supported Platforms

- IBM VSE
- IBM i (AS/400)
- UNIX
- Linux
- Windows
- macOS
- VM-based systems
- Any Java-enabled environment
Key Benefits
- Automated Transformation: Convert EBCDIC, COBOL copybooks, VSAM, DB2, and more into JSON/BSON for MongoDB.
- Seamless Streaming: Move enterprise data into MongoDB Atlas or on-prem MongoDB in real time.
- Cloud-Ready Architecture: Enable hybrid and multi-cloud deployments.
- Event-Driven Automation: Trigger alerts and actions in MongoDB based on enterprise events.
Use Cases in Action
- AI & Machine Learning: Feed real-time transactional data from IBM Z, IBM i, and Linux systems into MongoDB to train fraud detection and recommendation models.
- Observability & Security: Aggregate logs, SMF records, and RACF security data into MongoDB for SIEM and compliance monitoring.
- Application Modernization: Migrate applications from UNIX, Windows, or VSE into microservices architectures, powered by MongoDB.
- Customer 360: Combine decades of customer data from mainframes, IBM i, and other enterprise platforms into MongoDB-powered insights platforms.
VirtualZ + MongoDB AMP: The Modernization Power Duo
MongoDB AMP accelerates application transformation with AI-driven tooling, while VirtualZ ensures enterprise data from every platform flows into MongoDB in real time. The combination allows enterprises to:
- Modernize across all platforms — not just the mainframe.
- Reduce costs tied to legacy ETL, middleware, and data replication.
- Unlock new AI, analytics, and customer experience opportunities.
- Ensure compliance and governance across every system.
The Future Starts Now
Enterprise applications and data no longer have to slow down innovation. With MongoDB AMP powering application modernization and VirtualZ delivering real-time data access across all platforms, organizations can finally bridge the gap between yesterday’s systems and tomorrow’s opportunities.
