| Legacy
Migration & Consolidation |
An I.T. system becomes a legacy system when
its underlying computing paradigm, platform, and/or the
development environment become absolute - a situation happening
ever so often in the rapidly evolving I.T. world. The reasons
for migrating a legacy system to a modern technology are
obvious: the need to keep up with the competition; the ever
increasing system maintenance complexity when the platforms
are no longer supported by the vendors, missed possibilities
offered by new technologies, and the desire to increase
productivity and be up-to-date.

| ELLAAR experts
help our clients plan for the efficient legacy system migration
taking into account the need to fully exploit the existing
I.T. assets and wisely reverse-engineer the existing business
logic into the new system, the parallel run and seamless transition
requirements, the "future-proofing" of the new system,
i.e. selection of tools and technologies minimizing the risk
of running into a legacy situation again and so on and so
forth. The analysis, design, data conversion and provision
for system components interoperability are of obvious importance
for the success of the legacy system conversion. The newly
developed system should undergo the thorough testing before
the client may safely transfer its day-to-day business functions
to it.
ELLAAR applies its extensive experience and
resources to cost-effectively complete each step of the legacy
system conversion process, be it a migration from one software
environment to another, or a transition to a new hardware
platform, or even an overall system architecture redesign.
In doing so, we never let the technology distort or over-rule
our client's business needs and objectives.
