15th CA 2E / CA Plex Conference

AI coding assistants have helped accelerate modern development, but don’t feel left out if you’re using older tools like CA Plex. Andrew Leggett will demonstrate how Plex developers can use tools like Claude Code to query and modify your Plex applications, automating common tasks and extracting information from your models, while Borys Vulgarin will introduce an AI-driven pipeline that turns plain-language requirements into valid CA Plex Object Migration XML, which can then be imported directly into a Plex model.

After 20+ years building enterprise ERP software on CA Plex, SODISA faced a familiar challenge: evolving user expectations without abandoning the business logic that took decades to perfect. In this session, we share three real-world patterns we used to extend our Plex system outward. Including integrating facial biometric recognition directly within Plex, exposing Plex business logic through a modern .NET API to power a web employee portal, and building new web interfaces that coexist with our existing Plex model. No theory, just honest lessons from a team that decided to orchestrate around Plex rather than walk away from it.
