The document discusses the capabilities and benefits of Visual COBOL, an advanced application development tool for COBOL. It allows for unified development across languages, supports modern application development techniques, and provides flexible deployment options for COBOL applications, including on-premise, cloud-based, and mobile access. This allows organizations to maximize their developer resources and accelerate application delivery while protecting legacy COBOL assets.
