Enterprise modernisation
Modernise legacy applications and infrastructure incrementally, without stopping the business.
The problem
Critical systems run on ageing technology that is costly to host, risky to change and hard to staff — yet the business cannot pause while they are replaced.
Overview
We modernise in slices: test what exists, wrap it with APIs, replace components one at a time and migrate infrastructure when the application is ready.
Approach
- 01
Assess applications, dependencies and risk
- 02
Add characterisation tests
- 03
Introduce APIs around legacy modules
- 04
Replace and retire incrementally
Capabilities
Application assessment
Understand code, data and dependencies.
Incremental replacement
Strangler-pattern migrations.
Infrastructure modernisation
Containers, cloud and CI/CD.
Data migration
Reconciled, repeatable migrations.
Typical components
What a solution like this is usually made of.
- Risk register
- Test suites
- API layer
- New services
- Migration tooling
Intended outcomes
What the solution is designed to achieve. Results depend on your starting point.
- Lower change risk
- Supported runtimes and frameworks
- Faster delivery of new features
Services involved
Application modernisation
Incremental modernisation of ageing applications: framework upgrades, architecture refactoring, UI renewal and cloud readiness.
Legacy system migration
Data and functionality migration from legacy systems: mapping, cleansing, transformation, reconciliation and cut-over.
Cloud migration
Assessment, planning and execution of migrations from on-premise or between providers, with rehearsed cut-overs and rollback plans.
DevOps and CI/CD
Continuous integration and delivery pipelines, infrastructure as code, environment management and release automation.
API development
REST and GraphQL APIs with versioning, authentication, rate limiting, documentation and SDKs for internal and external consumers.
