Modernise all the way to the core
LUX Core is the framework
With the help of a good business architecture, it’s possible to create a common understanding of one’s own organisation. LUX Core is the framework that allows you to optimise and maintain the power of your existing IT solution and the competitive advantages associated with your unique system, while increasing functionality, efficiency and user-friendliness.

LUX on the IBM i and IBM Power platform
LUX runs entirely on the IBM i and IBM Power platforms and exploits the operating system’s strong security solutions and many of its built-in features. The overall functionality in LUX is called LUX Core, and the customer/application-specific part is called LUX App. As standard, LUX Core contains a number of different features that can also be used by the LUX App part.
Modernisation with LUX Core allows you to plan for future business needs with services aimed at meeting current and future business requirements, and with LUX App you can tailor applications to your business.

Why LUX?
IBM i is one of the most stable platforms on the market, but a lot has changed in terms of user-friendliness and interaction. Therefore, a carefully planned modernisation is required that preserves the valuable solutions that have been tailored to your business over the years. To meet this need, Apper has developed LUX – a safe and cost-effective method for modernising IBM i at a pace that suits you.
By using LUX to modernise IBM i, you avoid the major risks of failure that often arise when tranistioning to a standard system. You also avoid the high costs involved in developing your own customised system. Waiting to take action in itself entails an increasing risk. Key personnel are getting older, while what we call the “tech debt” grows. That’s why LUX is a way to actively work with your modernisation. It allows you to maintain unique values and bit-by-bit, without disrupting operations, update your system with full visibility into all costs.
