Migration and Re-engineering of Applications.

Migrating applications from one appserver to another has become important for several reasons. Business reasons include cost-cutting move to open-source environment; upgrade move to a brand-name product for better performance or feature completeness; or a forced move simply because your vendor is no longer in the application server business.

Many technical reasons also force migrations. Sometimes a much-needed feature from a newer J2EE^TM standard, such as EJB^TM 2.0, may force an upgrade in related products of your deployment environment. Although standardization has meant much lesser work, there is effort and complexity involved in such migrations, which specialists like MiddlewareWorks can handle cost-effectively for you.

Re-engineering an existing application from either legacy or client-server environments into J2EE and SOA involves putting together a team that understands both ends. We specialize in such effort bringing smooth transition over to the new environment with minimum cost of change.

Introducing a new platform such as J2EE or SOA invariably requires replacing, porting or re-engineering both packaged and custom-developed applications. Most commonly, the new application also needs to factor in functional changes and wish list of your business team. We make this process very effective by:

• Quickly ramping-up resources to execute the project rapidly.
• Ensuring that the new app delivers the same performance and functionality once deployed.
• Using offshore resources where appropriate to drive down the overall cost of the project.

MiddlewareWorks offers project-based migration and re-engineering services that can be executed as either a fixed price, scope, and timeframe project or a time-and-material outsourced project.
