Our Application Modernization Services

Optimize your legacy systems for the modern business landscape to be tomorrow-ready

Make the shift to bridge the gap between goal-setting and realization. We initiate the process with a comprehensive analysis of your current system, which includes identifying areas for improvement. Scrutinizing both the infrastructure and code of your legacy application helps build the foundation for a successful legacy modernization strategy. We help you gain relevance and thrive in today’s tech-driven marketplace by implementing this strategy.

Renew your legacy apps to convert them into futuristic tools for growth and commercial success

Technical debt is a common challenge of a deprecated system refactoring project. We overcome it by introducing modular and adaptable code structures, built keeping clean practices in mind. We also modernize your tech stack to ensure the maintainability, scalability, security, performance, and future compatibility of your re-engineered software, optimizing it for faster loading times and seamless operations.

Revamp and improve your enterprise applications to gain a distinct competitive edge

Our expertise in modernizing legacy applications stems from successes achieved in legacy application modernization. We build software reengineering solutions that are compatible with multiple modern platforms and tailored for tomorrow.

Modernize to streamline workflows and excel where limitations cause app abandonment

Contemporary platforms and browsers come with optimized architectures that legacy systems can rarely handle. But, you do not have to replace it. Rather, you refactor it to save time and money yet promote usability, scalability, security, and performance. As a result, you can adapt better to the dynamicity of the modern online business environment. Leverage our practical application reengineering services to facilitate modernization without losing downtime and revenue.

Ensure your business stays up-to-date by moving your core legacy systems to the cloud

Modernize your legacy systems and align them with the latest tech and customer trends by embracing the limitless power of the cloud. Migrate your legacy apps to make them resilient and agile. Partner with us to harness the power of modernization to migrate your business-critical legacy software to the cloud and mitigate the risk of downtime or security breaches.

Declutter your legacy app codes to remove redundancy and improve app performance

So, what is code refactoring? Making enough changes to improve internal code quality without altering its external behavior. Such refactoring techniques must be implemented to improve code readability and reduce app complexities. From code assessment to planning, testing, implementation, and support, we offer the entire gamut of code refactoring services. Leverage them to eliminate app performance bottlenecks and optimize the codebase.

Re-engineering

In this strategy, we upgrade the existing application by redesigning certain specific elements or introducing new ones. Here, the original environment and codes of the legacy app are preserved. However, new interfaces and connections are facilitated with the help of APIs, enabling the seamless integration of modern technologies within the legacy app.

Re-engineering

Re-hosting

This process of restructuring does not involve modifying either the app’s application code or its features and functionalities. However, the entire system undergoes a seamless cloud migration with minimal disruption, making it more secure, scalable, and cost-effective. Further, cloud computing also facilitates easy disaster recovery, automatic updates, better collaboration and remote accessibility.

Re-hosting

Re-factoring

The existing legacy application code is restructured and optimized without impacting the app’s external behaviour. Hence, leveraging this app modernization strategy allows businesses to enhance app performance without affecting its end-users in any way. Refactoring improves the nonfunctional attributes of the software. It is typically done in small, incremental steps to reduce the risk of errors and maintain a consistent functionality.

Re-factoring

Re-architecting

As the name suggests, the legacy app architecture is redesigned by rethinking and restructuring its core components and their interactions. Reachitecturing is generally done to align the app with modern architectural trends like microservices, serverless computing, etc. It involves making significant changes to the codebase, architecture, and even the tech stack of the existing application.

Re-architecting Application

Re-platforming

Popularly known as “lift-and-shift,” this strategy involves moving an application to a new platform. Minimal changes are made to the core functionality and architecture of the application. Many businesses prefer this to more extensive app modernization efforts because of lowered upfront investment requirements. Benefits of this type of legacy application modernization include reduced operational costs, improved scalability etc.
