Mphasis Unveils NeoCrux™ and NeoZeta™ for Enhanced Software Engineering

On July 26, 2024, Mphasis Limited announced the launch of Mphasis NeoCrux™, an industry-first tool designed to enhance software engineers’ productivity by streamlining the Software Development Lifecycle through a Generative AI (Gen AI) powered Agent Orchestrator.

The company stated that NeoCrux™ is one of the first platforms offering engineers the flexibility to integrate various fit-for-purpose AI Agents rather than being restricted to a single AI agent.

Alongside NeoCrux™, Mphasis also introduced NeoZeta™, the only Gen AI-based Enterprise Modernization Platform available, providing full transparency in the re-learning process to enable organisations to confidently modernise mission-critical systems.

NeoCrux™ supports all critical resources within agile teams, delivering measurable acceleration in the Idea2Launch IT Value Stream. The initial release includes an in-IDE assistant for software engineers, with a follow-up AI-powered requirement engineering workbench for product owners. Beyond basic agent orchestration, NeoCrux™’s enterprise edition offers powerful, personalised AI assistance that learns and adapts to individual engineers’ behaviours.

Key Benefits of Mphasis NeoCrux™:

• Improved Developer Productivity: Enhances engineers’ efficiency by reducing time spent on context switching through AI assistance.
• Enhanced Personalised Experiences: Improves experiences for developers, quality engineers, and product owners.
• Enterprise Edition Features: Provides a 360-degree view with a recommendation engine, accelerating Idea2Launch Velocity.

They stated that the NeoCrux™ basic edition will be available on the Microsoft Visual Studio Marketplace, offering out-of-the-box integration with GitHub Copilot.

Stating about NeoZeta™, the company added that it is not just an AI-powered code converter but an innovative platform addressing enterprise application modernisation. It unlocks enterprise knowledge hidden in code and other technical artifacts, offering virtually unlimited shelf-life for systems developed on NeoZeta™.

A key feature of NeoZeta™ is transparency: avoiding black-box conversions and using open standards and knowledge graph technologies to ensure both humans and AI agents can participate in the modernisation journey.

Key Benefits of Mphasis NeoZeta™:

• Reduced Modernisation Costs: Can lower the time and cost of per-line-of-code modernisation by 60% or more by leveraging enterprise knowledge.
• Broad Applicability: Initially supports relearning from Cobol, Naturals, Java, and C++.
• AI-Assisted Validations: Supports AI-assisted validations by SMEs at all stages of the modernisation journey.

Pilot programs for NeoZeta™ across various industries, including a multi-national wealth management organisation and a large North American railway operator, have demonstrated its ability to adapt to individual organisation taxonomies successfully. NeoZeta™ Re-learning Agents effectively converse with Mphasis NeoCrux™ forward engineering Agents, creating a complete software engineering ecosystem for knowledge-driven development.

NeoZeta™ will be available on the ‘Gen AI Foundry for Financial Services’, a collaboration between AWS and the Mphasis.AI business unit.

Commenting on these tools, the Chief Solutions Officer of Mphasis, Ramanathan Srikumar, said, “Mphasis NeoCrux and NeoZeta are game changers for engineers and enterprises. Revolutionising the development landscape, Mphasis NeoCrux bridges the gap between innovation and efficiency by seamlessly integrating essential tools and harnessing the transformative capabilities of Gen AI agents.”

He further added, “At the same time, NeoZeta transforms enterprise application modernisation by unlocking hidden knowledge in code, and non-code artifacts like architecture documents, meeting transcripts etc. Together, these platforms empower its users to focus on innovation while enhancing personalised experiences and delivering exceptional software solutions more efficiently for enterprises.”
