Legacy Modernisation
There is an appetite for Legacy Modernisation lately – its become apparent that organisations are increasingly looking toward reusing their assets in new ways and porting their existing technologies toward more productive tools, without having to throw away the last “n” years of effort and investment.
There are a number of tools and services out there that allow businesses to migrate away from so-called Legacy platforms on to “newer” or “hot” platforms like Java etc etc, but why would anyone do that from Gen ?
It seems to me that one would consider platforms to migrate TO that were more cost-effective that the current platform that the business were on, otherwise why would a modernisations be required in the first place (such as CA Gen) ?
Checkout APG’s ProgGen for examples of organisations that are using modernisation techniques.
