MODERNIZATION
Moving legacy monoliths to next-gen cloud native
platforms with Application Modernization Services
Application modernization services are crucial to businesses today as they face increased competitive pressures to get the most out of their existing IT assets and continuously optimize to meet the demands of the changing market, reduce technical debt and increase productivity. Archaic applications limit the ability to innovate and pose the following challenges:
This calls for application modernization of existing legacy architecture to next-generation cloud native platform architecture.
Enterprises continuously strive to provide their customers and stakeholders with personalized experiences, enter markets with new business models, release products in an accelerated manner, and scale their businesses infinitely. Our sustainable, continuous application modernization program focuses on applying tools, approaches and best practices to extract and transition legacy capabilities and workloads, delivering business benefits that come from cloud native architectures and modern platform ecosystems.
Deconstruct legacy applications in self-funded increments, with minimal IT overhead to manage change and reduce technical debt. This helps optimize spend on modernization while continuously delivering real business benefits.
Simultaneously modernize applications and optimize maintenance costs and efforts. This approach reduces total cost of ownership, offers near-immediate responses to business needs, and rationalizes and modernizes an enterprise’s application portfolio.
Leverage years of accumulated domain and technology experiences to automate many aspects of the modernization process.
Extract legacy business logic into modeling software, which goes into domain-driven design for microservices.
Recover knowledge that goes into automation frameworks to build end state ecosystems.
These methods offer businesses cloud-native microservices based capabilities, disposable architecture ecosystems that allow for continuous technology and capability innovation, and highly automated IT development and operations that help in optimizing build and run.
Our range of Neo-platforms enable enterprises to modernize their mission-critical systems with confidence and rapidly develop new leading-edge apps for business transformation. They enhance productivity and quality throughout the software development lifecycle, while significantly reducing risks.
The Knowledge Graph is the unique differentiator in our approach. It is a living and breathing, evergreen enterprise asset that is built on Day 1 by relearning from existing systems and artifacts — and continually maintained, validated, optimized and tested as new applications are developed and existing ones enhanced.
Mphasis NeoZetaTM - A Generative AI-Powered Modern Engineering Platform
Mphasis NeoZetaTM offers full transparency into the re-learning process so organizations can modernize mission-critical systems with confidence. It accelerates modernization of legacy applications (written in languages like COBOL, Java etc.) to reduce re-learning time by >50%. NeoZetaTM design avoids black-box conversions and with the help of open standards and knowledge graph technologies, ensures both humans and AI agents can participate in the modernization journey. The platform unleashes enterprise knowledge hidden in code and other technical artifacts and documents, offering virtually unlimited shelf-life for the software systems developed on NeoZetaTM
Key benefits of Mphasis NeoZetaTM include:
NeoZetaTM pilot programs across diverse industries (including a multi-national wealth management organization and large North American railway operator) has shown its ability to adapt to individual organization taxonomies successfully. KNOW MORE
Mphasis NeoCruxTM - A Generative AI-Powered Modern Engineering Platform
Mphasis NeoCruxTM on the other hand is focused on significantly improving software engineer’s productivity by streamlining the Software Development Lifecycle with the help of Generative AI (Gen AI) powered Agent Orchestrator. It supports all critical resources within agile teams to deliver measurable acceleration in Idea2Launch IT Value Stream. The first release is an in-IDE assistant for software engineers, that will be followed by an AI-powered requirement engineering workbench for product owners. NeoCruxTM platform extends beyond basic agent orchestration; its enterprise edition is fueled by powerful personalized AI assistance for engineers that learns and adapts to individual engineers’ behaviors.
Key benefits of Mphasis NeoCruxTM include:
Mphasis NeoCruxTM basic edition will be available on Microsoft Visual Studio Marketplace and will provide out-of-the-box integration into GitHub Copilot.
We believe Mphasis NeoZetaTM and NeoCruxTM will be game changers for engineers and organizations. Mphasis NeoZetaTM transforms enterprise application modernization by unlocking hidden knowledge in code, non-code artifacts like architecture documents, meeting transcripts etc, while NeoCruxTM bridges the gap between innovation and efficiency by seamlessly integrating essential tools and harnessing the transformative capabilities of Gen AI agents.
NeoZetaTM Re-learning Agents converse well with Mphasis NeoCruxTM forward engineering Agents to provide a complete software engineering ecosystem for knowledge-driven development. NeoZetaTM will be available on the ‘Gen AI Foundry for Financial Services’, a collaboration between AWS and Mphasis.AI business unit. KNOW MORE
We help our clients modernize monolithic applications written on IBM Z® and IBM i operating systems, legacy distributed applications written on Visual Basic, Delphi, PowerBuilder, Oracle Forms, MS Access, 4GLs and older architecture (3 tier, SOA, MVC) to next-gen cloud native architectures (12 factor, Docker, serverless, Kubernetes, microservices, event-driven) running on Amazon AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform, IBM RedHat OpenShift, VMWare Tanzu Application Server. We utilize combinations of approaches in the journey to application modernization including rehost, replatform, replace, refactor, rearchitect, rebuild, retain and retire. Batch and online applications and data are migrated and modernized through methods such as emulation, containerization, APIfication, automated code conversion, business rules extraction, automated code generation, automated deployment, data externalization, etc.
