Know About Legacy Application’s Migration and Why it is Necessary?
App Migration is no longer a matter of ‘ if’ these days , it is of ‘when’ . The legacy applications that were developed using hardware and coding languages like FORTRAN or Cobol of earlier times, have now taken backseat due to their inability to meet emerging necessities of today’s Born Digital consumers. The term ‘legacy’ here does not refer to the functionality these applications deliver, but indicates aging software and hardware infrastructure that is expensive to maintain and exhibits to change. And while these legacy applications have served important business purposes and are in fact the backbone applications for many enterprises even today. But in the modern world, they cease to perform certain operations efficiently, creating certain business issues. In summary, running a legacy application in today’s modern era is inflexible and too costly. Therefore, it’s best to migrate legacy application to newer platforms.
