Amazon Mainframe Modernization
AWS Mainframe Modernization provides tools and resources to help you plan and implement migration and modernization of your mainframe applications to AWS. It supports automated refactoring and replatforming of COBOL applications to run natively on AWS with managed runtime environments, deployment pipelines, and batch job execution capabilities.
Reference-quality API operations across every facet — a rich contract, published governance, transparent operations, and machine-readable commercial terms.
API Evangelist profiles Amazon Mainframe Modernization the way a machine reads it — 529 machine-readable artifacts across 5 APIs, pulled from the provider's own public surface and indexed so a developer, an analyst, or an AI agent can evaluate it against every other provider on the network.
Every provider in the network is reduced to the same set of machine-readable artifacts — OpenAPI contracts, event specifications, GraphQL schemas, runnable collections, pricing and rate-limit signals, security posture, OAuth scopes, and the agent surfaces (MCP servers and skills) that let software drive the API on its own. We profile them because the interface is the part of a company you can actually inspect: it is a truer signal of what a provider does than any marketing page. From those artifacts we compute the Kin Score — Amazon Mainframe Modernization scores 70.0/100 (exemplar), with a separate agent-readiness read of 48/100 (agent ready). The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.
Kin Score
This is the API Evangelist rating — a single, repeatable read computed from the artifacts on this page. Green fill is points earned; the red track is points possible, so every bar shows earned-versus-possible at a glance.

How we profile Amazon Mainframe Modernization
Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for Amazon Mainframe Modernization. For each we say what it is and why it earns a place in the profile, then list every one we've indexed — capped at two rows, scroll within the panel for the rest.
APIs 5
Each API is captured as its own OpenAPI definition — every operation, parameter, and response. This is the single most useful machine-readable description of what an API does, and it's what lets us score, lint, mock, and generate against it without asking the provider for anything.
Individual APIs this provider publishes, each with its own machine-readable definition.
Amazon Mainframe Modernization Applications API
The Applications API from Amazon Mainframe Modernization — 19 operation(s) for applications.
Amazon Mainframe Modernization Engine Versions API
The Engine Versions API from Amazon Mainframe Modernization — 1 operation(s) for engine versions.
Amazon Mainframe Modernization Environments API
The Environments API from Amazon Mainframe Modernization — 2 operation(s) for environments.
Amazon Mainframe Modernization Signed Bi Url API
The Signed Bi Url API from Amazon Mainframe Modernization — 1 operation(s) for signed bi url.
Amazon Mainframe Modernization Tags API
The Tags API from Amazon Mainframe Modernization — 2 operation(s) for tags.
Pricing Plans 1
Pricing is part of the interface. Machine-readable plans tell you what a tier costs and includes before you commit — one of the six things the Kin Score reads for commercial clarity.
Published pricing tiers and plan structures.
Rate Limits 1
Rate limits are the difference between a demo that works and a production integration that doesn't fall over. Publishing them is an operational-transparency signal — and a hard requirement for any agent that plans its own throughput.
Documented rate limits and quota policies.

RATE LIMITSFinOps 1
Cost, billing, and metering signals let a buyer model the financial operations of an API before it's live. We profile them for the same reason we profile pricing: the money is part of the contract.

Features 5
The notable capabilities this provider advertises, captured as structured features so they can be searched and compared instead of read one landing page at a time.
Notable capabilities this provider offers.
Automated Refactoring
Automatically refactor COBOL mainframe applications to run natively on AWS.
Managed Runtime Environments
Create and manage runtime environments using Micro Focus or Blue Age engines on AWS.
Application Deployment
Deploy and manage versions of modernized mainframe applications.
Batch Job Execution
Execute batch jobs migrated from mainframe in managed AWS environments.
Data Set Management
Import and manage mainframe data sets for use by modernized applications.
Semantic Vocabularies 1
JSON-LD contexts give the data shared meaning across APIs. We profile them because semantics are what let a machine reconcile 'customer' here with 'customer' somewhere else.
JSON-LD contexts and semantic vocabularies used across these APIs.
Spectral Rules 2
Governance rulesets we run against this provider's specs — the automated checks behind parts of the score. Profiling them makes the quality bar explicit and re-runnable, not a matter of opinion.
JSON Schema 168
Standalone JSON Schema definitions describe the data models behind the API. We profile them so the shapes are validatable on their own — useful long after a single request is forgotten.

Real request and response payloads are what turn a spec from abstract into obvious — and they're one of the twelve things an agent needs to call an API correctly on the first try.

Security Posture 4
Authentication, domain security, vulnerability disclosure, and trust-center signals — the evidence that a provider takes security seriously enough to document it. We profile it because you can't govern what you can't see.
Authentication, domain security, vulnerability disclosure, and trust-center signals.
Agentic Access 1
An x-agentic-access contract marks which operations are safe for an agent to run on its own and which need a human in the loop. It is the difference between an API an agent can use and one it can use safely.
