Legacy application migration

The landscape for doing business is changing at a very fast pace. In order for businesses to get used to the new changes, the business must change with the changing technological advancements as well. To do this, businesses will require database and applications to be shifted from one work environment to another. Sometimes the shift in technology may involve restructuring or rethinking the information technology systems while other time a complete overhaul of the system might be required.

The levels of migrations are varied. There is database conversion, turkey migration to a new platform or operating system, legacy software porting application (user interface, 3GL code and middleware) of sometimes enabling the web. The legacy OLTP applications can be web enabled, for example replacing the compliant application for the windows server and redesigning the user interface with an object oriented application such as JAVA, VB, Net Applications and C++ can make the application available for e-business and integration for business application. This can also be done by using a J2EE to replace the middleware.

Our Process of Migration

Some of the major benefits of legacy application migration are the increased agility, increased  business productivity, overall cost reduction, reduced chances of disruption to the business continuity, increased productivity, improved chances for expansion, increased business security, adaptability for use with other systems and increased chances of exploiting new business opportunities.

Application migration projects include migrating the existing application to a new platform such as Windows NT or UNIX, Internet extension to the existing application, software re-designing to allow for migration of the legacy system application to the new client/server design or updating the non-rational database technology to a rational database technology.

All the services are done to extend the life cycle of the legacy systems by coat effectively migrating them to new technologies.
