Today it almost is a necessity, not an option, for companies to modernize their legacy systems if they want to stay ahead of the competition.
Consider The Reasons to Upgrade
When choosing how to modernize and what new systems to adopt, it’s important to factor in things such as migration complexity, time and cost. Old, outdated software constricts productivity and costs a lot to maintain.
- Is the push driven by a need for better security of your systems?
- Are none of the vendors supporting the system or offering upgrades any longer?
- Do you require easier to use tools with better user experiences?
- Is there a need to reduce operating costs?
Know Your Modernization Options
Depending on your organization’s specific needs there are various options for your modernization approach.
To gain new capabilities, for example, an application will likely need to be re-architected and the code altered. Converting code to a modern programming language opens the possibilities needed to update systems and keep pace with current technologies.
For a simple move to a new hosting environment from physical to the cloud, a redeployment and no code changes are needed.
In a total replace or rebuild there is much more involved and entirely new systems are built and implemented. Here a business can approach the changes gradually over time extending capabilities and building new functionalities as needed into their new systems or if time and cost are not a concern, businesses can opt to remove all old applications and have new, customized applications or pre-built packages added to their systems.
