    Should you migrate your legacy applications?

    Most businesses think that moving legacy applications to the cloud is an unwanted expense. If you think like that, you aren’t alone. On the other hand, some organizations need to move, but don’t have the expertise or resources to get the job done. You don’t need to worry about this as we at AptaCloud is there to help.

    We make the legacy application migration process less painful for any business. No matter what industry you operate in, we offer right guidance from the beginning. We will help you move your legacy applications to the cloud and experience game changing ROI.

    Why Should You Modernize Your Legacy Applications?

    Legacy applications are built with old, outdated technologies. Technology continues to develop at a rapid pace, but legacy applications will keep you stuck in the past. The technologies behind your legacy application can hamper innovation as well as productivity.

    Some of the biggest challenges linked with legacy applications include:

    High maintenance costs

    Inability to scale

    Lack of integration

    Migrating your legacy applications to the cloud can help you overcome these challenges. Here are some other prominent benefits that legacy application migration can offer you.

    Reduced Costs

    Migrating legacy apps to the cloud does away with expensive data center and hardware investment needs. The pay-as-you-go economics of cloud enable savings of 60% or more compared to on-premises application hosting, support and maintenance.

    Enhanced Security 

    Public cloud services providers heavily invest in advanced cybersecurity processes and tools. They are much more advanced when compared to on-prem secure capabilities. Hence, keeping your applications on the cloud can enhance data protection. You will be able to stay away from numerous threats thanks to regular patching/hardening, encryption, perimeter defense, and network security.

    Improved Reliability 

    Legacy systems will often lead you to reliability issues. It can ruin the positive impression that you leave on the minds of your customers. Nobody would want to deal with a business that continuously experience downtimes and outages. This is another reason to migrate your legacy applications. Enterprise-grade cloud infrastructure solutions will offer automatic failover and built-in redundancy.

    Faster Innovation

    Free from technology constraints of legacy platforms, cloud’s native services make it faster and easier to deliver innovations like AI, advanced analytics, IoT integrations and more to supercharge your apps. Agile DevOps processes accelerate coding and testing too.

    Seamless Scalability 

    Sudden application traffic spikes crash legacy servers unable to scale capacity instantly. Cloud's auto-scaling seamlessly provisions more resources during peak loads for snappy app performance.

    Simplified IT Operations

    We don’t just restructure database schemas and implement caching strategies to improve database performance. We can even help you move to cloud and experience the power of cloud database solutions.

    Improved Workforce Mobility

    Users can access apps from anywhere, anytime on the cloud, boosting workforce productivity. Vendor managed cloud platforms also help companies attract and retain younger tech talent proficient in cloud-native tools.

    Legacy Application Migration Success Stories

    Global Bank Lifts Mainframe Apps to AWS Cloud, Saves $2 Million Yearly

    Situation

    This major bank relied on mainframe hosting legacy accounting applications incurring $3 million in annual hosting costs. They needed to migrate these apps to curtail expenses.

    Solution

    AptaCloud implemented a progressive “lift and shift” strategy to migrate the mainframe apps to Amazon EC2 instances without rewriting any code. We automated provisioning to spin EC2 capacity up/down on demand.

    Outcomes

    Reduced hosting costs by over $2 million per year with pay-as-you-go EC2 pricing Retired expensive mainframe stack Positioned bank to modernize apps for digital transformation later.

    Which legacy platforms do you migrate from and to?

    We can migrate legacy apps written in COBOL, VB, PowerBuilder, .NET Framework etc. running on mainframes or servers to modern cloud platforms like AWS, Azure and Google Cloud.

    Do you re-architect legacy code or just lift and shift?

    We offer multiple migration options – lift and shift, re-platforming code or fully re-architecting. Our consultants recommend the best strategic approach based on your modernization goals, timelines and budget.

    Do you guarantee certain service levels or performance metrics after migration?

    Yes, we provide financial SLAs guaranteeing service levels pertaining to metrics like application availability, response times, concurrent user support, data retrieval rates and failover times. We are with you until the applications stabilize in the production cloud environment.

    Can you migrate our legacy systems in a live production environment with no downtime?

    Absolutely, we have vast experience with “live” migration techniques to synchronize on-prem and cloud platforms, facilitate dual writes, and redirect traffic gradually to eliminate any downtime as legacy systems are decommissioned post cutover.

    How do you ensure zero downtime during migration?

    We provision cloud infrastructure upfront and migrate code/data in stages without disrupting production systems. Traffic is gradually rerouted to cloud apps and on-prem decommissioned post cutover.

    What migration speeds can you deliver?

    Using proven tools and automation, we can migrate legacy portfolios to the cloud 4X faster than typical migration partners. Over 90% of migrations are completed within 90 days.

    What types of testing do you perform post-migration?

    Our rigorous testing process post-migration includes functionality testing, integration testing, interoperability testing, security testing, performance testing, scalability testing and user acceptance testing (UAT). This ensures migrated applications have no regression and meet business SLAs.

    Which cloud platforms do you support - AWS, Azure, Google or others?

    We have deep expertise with hyperscale cloud providers such as AWS, Azure and Google Cloud Platform. With that experience, we will migrate Windows and Linux based legacy workloads effectively.
