Right, there's a huge impedance mismatch between COBOL and Java, but couldn't you say the same for any other modern PL? I don't see how migrating COBOL to Python or Clojure or Haskell would be much easier than migrating it to Java. But yes, no one wants to touch the 30 year-old COBOL codebase with a ten foot pole. It's career kryptonite. I'd be curious to learn about the solution you're describing for this problem, is it something you can disclose in any detail?
