Modernizing a legacy platform

Business dependent on an ageing, hard-to-change application

The platform still runs core operations, but releases are risky, knowledge sits with few people and hosting is outdated.

Approach

  1. 01Document the current system, its data and its dependencies
  2. 02Define a staged modernization path with rollback at each step
  3. 03Move hosting to automated, monitored cloud environments
  4. 04Replace modules incrementally while the business keeps operating

System components

  • Architecture assessment
  • Staged migration plan
  • Cloud environments
  • Monitoring

FQuestions
