App Modernization is a service offered by Semantive that helps businesses transform their outdated, legacy software into modern, cloud-native applications.

Talk to our experts

As technology continues to evolve at an unprecedented pace, legacy applications can quickly become outdated and expensive to maintain, hindering business growth and innovation.

We offer a solution to this problem, allowing businesses to revamp their legacy applications and take advantage of the latest technologies.

While moving legacy applications to the cloud has become a common practice, it can also pose significant risks, such as overprovisioning – as these applications may not be optimized for cloud environments. They are often monolithic and tightly coupled, making it difficult to scale or modify without affecting other components, requiring provisioning a fixed amount of resources that may not be fully utilized.

We work closely with our clients to develop a customized plan for their software modernization project. Our team analyzes architecture and code of legacy software and identifies areas that need rewriting, ensuring that the modernized application is modular and loosely coupled, with each component performing a specific function and communicating with other components through APIs, making it well-optimized for cloud environments. We also leverage containerization, microservices, and serverless architecture to ensure optimal resource utilization and cost savings, helping businesses avoid the risk of overprovisioning and reduce their overall IT costs.

What We Do

The process of modernization involves three core components: containerization, microservices, and serverless architecture.

The containerization process starts with encapsulating the legacy application and all its dependencies into a lightweight and portable container that can operate seamlessly across different cloud platforms. This approach allows for an efficient and scalable application deployment process, as the container can be easily transferred and run on any cloud infrastructure.

Then break down the monolithic architecture into smaller, more manageable microservices that can be developed, deployed, and scaled independently. Finally, we utilize serverless architecture to optimize resource utilization and cost savings, leveraging AWS technologies such as AWS Lambda and AWS Fargate.

With AWS Lambda, we can execute code without provisioning or managing servers, only paying for the compute time that is actually used. AWS Fargate enables us to run containers without managing the underlying infrastructure, making it easier to deploy and manage containerized applications. 

This approach makes the application more resilient, scalable, and simpler to maintain.

It also helps to address the limitations of monolithic architecture, such as the tendency to create a single point of failure and hamper the agility of the application. It also enables the system to scale dynamically in response to demand and helps to ensure that resources are utilized efficiently, decreasing your total cost of ownership.
