Salem Automation, LLC, a leading provider of legacy IT modernization services, will exhibit at AFCEA TechNet Augusta 2026, demonstrating its full spectrum of solutions for organizations operating mission-critical systems on legacy platforms.
Salem Automation specializes in helping defense and government organizations modernize aging IT infrastructure without disrupting operations. The company's four-stage modernization path spanning legacy platform support, hardware emulation, application and database modernization, and full platform migration enables agencies to reduce risk and maintain continuity while transitioning to modern environments.
At TechNet Augusta, Salem Automation will highlight its emulation solutions, including vtAlpha and vtVAX, which allow organizations to run OpenVMS and other legacy workloads on modern, supportable hardware. These solutions are particularly relevant for DoD environments where legacy systems underpin critical operations and cannot tolerate downtime during modernization efforts.
"Military and defense organizations face a unique challenge: the systems they depend on most are often the hardest to modernize," said Katie Holbrook, Communication's Director. "Our approach meets agencies where they are whether that means extending the life of a legacy platform or executing a full migration so they can modernize on their own timeline without compromising mission readiness."
Salem Automation operates as a subsidiary of IT Service Alliance (ITSA) and serves as an authorized value-added reseller for Vere Technologies' emulation software. The company brings deep fluency in both legacy and modern platforms, supporting technologies including OpenVMS, VMS clustering, FORTRAN, C/C++, and Sybase alongside modern migration targets.
TechNet Augusta attendees are invited to visit Salem Automation at Kiosk K15, located right outside the keynote panel sessions, to discuss their legacy modernization challenges and explore tailored solutions.
