Legacy Refactoring
Legacy systems often act as anchors, limiting agility, inflating operational costs, and hindering innovation. Our legacy refactoring service is designed to transform these outdated infrastructures into modern, scalable, and efficient systems that align with your business objectives.
Our Legacy Refactoring Process
Our approach to legacy refactoring is structured and strategic, ensuring minimal disruption and maximum efficiency:
Comprehensive Assessment: We start with a thorough analysis of your current architecture and infrastructure. This helps us understand dependencies, performance metrics, workloads, and potential challenges. We also examine frameworks and code in detail.
Business Scope Segmentation: We segment your system into distinct business scopes or domains. This allows us to develop targeted refactoring strategies that align with specific business functions.
Assessment: We design a refactoring plan that evaluates the necessary steps, timeframes, and costs involved.
Iterative Refactoring: Based on your requirements, we can implement new frameworks or fully rewrite components. We utilize proven approaches, such as the Strangler pattern, to incrementally replace parts of your legacy system with new components. This phased approach enables testing and validation at each stage, thereby reducing risk.
Optional Cloud Migration: If desired, we can migrate your refactored systems to the cloud, leveraging platforms like AWS to enhance scalability, security, and performance.
Documentation: We compile schemes and diagrams and perform training for your support team.
Why Refactor Your Legacy Systems?
Maintaining legacy systems is not just a technical challenge; it's a significant financial burden. According to Gartner, by 2025, companies will allocate 40% of their IT budgets solely to maintain technical debt . Deloitte highlights that modernization can lower spending by reducing investments in software, hardware, and licencing.
Beyond cost savings, modernizing legacy systems opens doors to new opportunities. It enables the provision of APIs to customers, facilitating seamless integrations and enhancing user experiences. Moreover, it allows businesses to leverage modern environments, adopting cloud-native architectures that offer scalability, flexibility, and resilience.
Why Partner with Experts?
Refactoring legacy systems is a complex process that requires specialized expertise in architecture, infrastructure and understanding someone else's code. Missteps can lead to unexpected errors, and missed opportunities.
By partnering with us, you can navigate the refactoring process efficiently, avoid common pitfalls, and fully realize the benefits of modernization.
