Pillar

Modernization

We move your applications out of legacy in stages: containers, managed services and data ready to grow, without rewriting everything at once.

When does it make sense?

  • A critical application only one person knows how to deploy.
  • An operating system, database or framework that is out of support.
  • Every change takes weeks because everything depends on everything.

Scope

What’s included

  1. Application assessment

    What should be rehosted, replatformed or redesigned, and why.

  2. Containers

    Application packaging and orchestration on Azure Kubernetes Service, Amazon EKS or managed container services.

  3. Data

    Migration to managed databases, tested backups and separate environments.

  4. Legacy exit

    Gradual retirement of components, with the application running throughout.

  5. Architecture documentation

    Diagrams and recorded decisions so your team can sustain it.

Method

How we work

Three steps, always with the same team and everything documented.

  1. 01

    Assessment

    Current architecture, technical debt and risks, application by application.

  2. 02

    First component

    We modernize a bounded piece and measure before moving on.

  3. 03

    Transition

    The rest moves in stages, without switching off what works.

Reference architecture

From a monolith to services you can change.

The application keeps running while each part moves to its new platform.

FAQ

What people usually ask us

Do we have to rewrite the application?

Not always. Many applications can be replatformed with minor changes. The assessment tells you what makes sense in each case.

Is Kubernetes required?

No. We recommend it only when the number of services justifies it; otherwise we use simpler managed options.

How long does it take to modernize an application?

Between 4 and 12 weeks per application, depending on its size. We define it after the assessment.
