A majority of organizations around the world are undertaking application modernization owing to several challenges - changing business demands and technology challenges are forcing organizations to improve operational efficiency of applications, while managing risk; organizations are facing complexities of rising cost & complexity of maintenance with users clamoring for better applications & newer features on one hand, while budget constraints do not allow them to do much about it on the other; organizations are not sure whether internal IT teams are geared to be able to expedite application modernization. Critical application knowledge resides with a few people and there is little or poor documentation. And most importantly - mature systems are sitting on older technologies, while competitors are zooming in with great architectures and easy to use modern front-ends.

Migration, as part of application modernization, leverages the current business model and the features of the application to move towards enhancement in a cost-effective manner. vCentric can provide migration services that cater to varied platforms. We bring in our tools and expertise to make a smooth transition.

vCentric’s approach to migration is to use software based automation to the maximum, ensuring the focus shifts from technology to the business processes present in the system.

This is made possible by our emphasis on R&D which has yielded an ability to analyze the existing source code by means of tools, and our own homegrown migration blueprints which allows for designing using UML and BPMN notations. Our migration blueprints also support automatic generation of controller and class code along with database schema. The usage of industry standards for the visual modeling allows business analysts to focus on the business process flow while the output of this modeling is fed to the tool for code generation.

vCentric offers end-to-end migration services, starting from application analysis, target environment selection, strategy definition, to implementation & support.

Re-Engineering

With the passing time, enterprises are increasingly facing the challenge of aging and old software applications, better known in computing parlance as legacy applications which are essential for the organizations but at the same time prove to be a nightmare for programmers and maintenance engineers. Though burdensome, legacy applications also represent years of accumulated experience and knowledge. It is, therefore, unwise to discard them before building new state of the art applications to leverage current technologies. There is a need to transform such legacy applications, suitable to the latest technology environment by various methods. For maximizing value, application reengineering is being increasingly embraced by organizations.

vCentric has been working on legacy applications since the time of Y2K problems that had turned the world in a spin when the millennium was ending and with which was ending the hope and fate of thousands of applications worldwide for their inability to recognize new date. Since then, we have developed special skills in reengineering through our own proven methods and experience. Our extensive experience and R&D strengths provide tool-based processes to achieve relatively painless reengineering of applications and help organizations reach their objectives efficiently and effectively.

Offering
vCentric can rapidly and effectively reengineer your legacy software applications to contemporary platforms with optimized architectures, simultaneously retaining or enhancing the value of those applications. We bring together our proven processes, technology expertise and tools to reengineer your software applications to modern technologies such as .NET and J2EE.
