Why It Matters

Legacy Holds You Back — Quietly but Consistently

Legacy systems disrupt deployment from within. They slow down developers and drive up infrastructure costs.  Teams lose focus, roadmaps stall, and engineers get stuck debugging outdated logic instead of building new features.

Leadership sees it too: according to NTT DATA, 

80% say legacy tech stalls progress, and 

94% believe outdated infrastructure kills agility.

Every new feature costs more. Every fix takes longer. Every month widens the gap between what your system delivers and what the business needs.

We fix that baseline.

We pinpoint the root causes, cut out brittle patterns, and reshape your stack to fuel growth, not hold it back, through legacy software migration.

What We Offer

Services We Provide

  • System-Wide Debt Audit

    See what is holding you back.

    The symptoms appear quickly — slow builds, mysterious outages, postponed releases. But the causes are deeper, entangled in outdated architectures, patterns, and half-documented workarounds that silently influence every deployment decision.

    Technical debt doesn’t just show up in code. It extends across your systems, CI/CD processes, testing strategies, infrastructure, and even your team’s behavior.

    We perform a full-spectrum audit that turns scattered pain points into mapped risk, a vital step when migrating legacy applications with minimal disruption.

    • Visualize architectural dependencies, ownership boundaries, and defect chains with tools like CodeScene and Lattix.
    • Analyze CI pipelines and test coverage using SonarQube and Launchable to identify security vulnerabilities in releases.
    • Detect runtime hotspots and hidden service coupling using profiling tools like Pyroscope and Instana.
    • Compare incident history and deployment metrics to identify recurring issues and their technical origins.
    • Discuss directly with technical leads to uncover hidden debt patterns and constraints that are often overlooked.

    Get a structured overview of the entire stack and the entire team. Our AI Solution Accelerator™ automates system-wide debt analysis and risk mapping. You get a clear picture of where the problems are, how they are spreading, and what needs to be changed first.

  • Targeted refactoring and re-architecture

    Stabilize the core. Clear the way.

    Some parts of the code base resist every change, especially in projects involving legacy app migration services. Releases break at the same points. Engineers keep the context in their heads, not in the system.

    We explore these friction zones and align them with how the system is used and how your team thinks.

    That’s how we do it:

    • Determine the radius of impact of unstable modules, including release blockers, rollback frequency, and high change frequency.
    • Identify convergence points where legacy logic overlaps with critical paths and API interfaces.
    • Prioritize remediation actions based on volatility, depth of dependency, and alignment with business processes.
    • Decompose monolithic clusters using domain-aligned boundaries (DDD, hexagonal, or event sourcing patterns).
    • Implement code transformations with automation tools such as OpenRewrite, AST matchers, and Semgrep.
    • Gradually replicate legacy subsystems — queue layers, I/O operations, service brokers — to reduce risk in live environments.
    • Capture tribal knowledge during refactoring to eliminate single points of failure and increase team autonomy.

    All work is integrated into your current delivery rhythm. Our AI Solution Accelerator™ drives focused refactoring by combining deep code analysis and automation.

  • Sustainable Quality Practices

    We develop quality practices that integrate seamlessly into your delivery processes — in small steps, within a narrow framework, and always observable. This is not a process for its own sake. It’s the framework your team can move with, without guesswork.

    And that’s how we do it:

    Define operational non-functional requirements (NFRs) with your team, including response time targets, recovery thresholds, defect budgets, and trace coverage.

    • Refine the test suite with mutation tests, coverage heatmaps, and priority zones tied to system-critical processes.
    • Integrate real-time linting and pre-merge enforcement with Semgrep, Danger, and a custom policy engine for seamless code quality assurance.s
    • Rework CI to reduce cycle time and detect faulty tests before they reach production.
    • Normalization of logs and traces for all new features, supported by OpenTelemetry and structured logging standards.
    • Integrate validation during deployment and post-release sanity checks with canary deployments and observability hooks.
    • Build team habits around the principle of “fix it where you touch it” — tying small cleanups to everyday tasks and commitments.

    Our AI Solution Accelerator™ embeds targeted automated testing, real-time linting, and observability hooks into your delivery pipeline, making quality predictable, measurable, and integral to every commit.

  • Platform Stability and Observability

    Know where it breaks — before it breaks.

    Incidents rarely start loudly. Most begin as quiet latency spikes, queue buildup, or background jobs that don’t recur. Left alone, these fragments become outages. And when observability is low, recovery becomes a game of guesswork.

    We help teams build platforms that recognize stress early and manage it without escalation.

    What we focus on:

    • Track system reliability patterns, from alert fatigue to hidden retries — and isolate failure points.
    • Instrument key workflows with distributed tracing and correlation IDs to track causality, not just symptoms.
    • Set actionable SLIs/SLOs that relate to the impact on users, rather than just the state of the infrastructure.
    • Optimize alerting pipelines with severity filters, escalation policies, and runbook hooks to minimize noise and false urgency.
    • Profile GC behavior, I/O throughput, and service latency under load with tools like eBPF, Grafana, and k6.
    • Capture and log system states before, during, and after release cycles to detect slow degradation.

    Review incident retrospectives to identify both structural blind spots and procedural gaps. Our AI Solution Accelerator™ integrates advanced observability, real-time alert tuning, and actionable SLO enforcement.

  • AI-Augmented Engineering

    Extend Your Team’s Reach

    Engineering speed often slows at the review stage, the test suite, or the legacy zones no one wants to touch. The blockers aren’t a strategy — they’re a matter of time and cognitive load.

    We embed AI into your development flow to reduce noise, highlight risk, and clear space for high-impact work.

    What we deploy:

    • AI-powered static analysis to detect hidden logic flaws, unreachable paths, and structural complexity.
    • PR summarization and change scoring to surface dangerous diffs before they merge.
    • Test suite extension based on observed gaps in coverage, edge case behavior, and runtime patterns.
    • Analyze duplication and tight coupling across services with full awareness of context and architecture.
    • Fine-tuned prompts for refactoring proposals that align with your coding standards and architecture vision.
    • Internal knowledge search trained on your incident postmortems, changelogs, and service docs.

    We keep your team focused where it counts — by letting machines handle the routine, the repeatable, and the easy-to-miss. Our AI Solution Accelerator™ combines static code analysis, risk-based PR scoring, and intelligent test expansion, uncovering hidden risks early and freeing your engineers to innovate where it matters most.

Our Process

Our Approach

We work closely with your team to understand how technical debt slows delivery, complicates decision-making, and increases risk. Together, we define the scope, identify key points of friction, and develop an actionable remediation strategy that aligns with your roadmap.

01.

01. Define strategic goals

We align on what tech debt means in your context, whether it’s time-to-release delays, high churn on core modules, or risks hidden in vulnerable integrations. The goal is clarity on where we need speed, stability, or structure, and what that requires technically.

02.

02. Allocation and prioritization of system deficits

We analyze the architecture, code base, and delivery flows based on commit history, incident data, and runtime metrics. With the help of engineers who understand the root causes of the issues, each high-friction area is identified, categorized, and linked to business-critical systems.

03.

03. Identify structural gaps

We uncover what's holding your team back: unreliable tests, weak boundaries, code you don't own, and deployment roadblocks. Using tools like CodeScene, SonarQube, and Launchable, we can get a data-driven view of system complexity, regression risk, and change instability.

04.

04. Evaluate change areas

Not all debt can be addressed at once. We determine what can be safely improved now, what needs to be isolated, and what needs to be implemented incrementally. Your delivery stays on track, while your system gets stronger from the inside out.

05.

05. Deliver a roadmap

You get a plan to eliminate technical debt with precise actions, tracked metrics, and prioritized workstreams. Each step supports long-term technical stability without slowing down work already in progress.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

  • How much do legacy migrations cost?

    Migration projects begin with a targeted discovery phase, which includes signing an NDA, mapping your architecture, and defining a phased plan. This is followed by business analysis to clarify requirements and identify risks. For smaller applications, budgets remain modest. Suppose your app involves multiple integrations, compliance checks, or large-scale data. In that case, the investment rises accordingly to the depth of the analysis, the size of the team, and the risk mitigation effort required to keep your operations running without interruption.

    Because we bill each sprint as a fixed engagement, you have complete visibility of your spending and can adjust your priorities quickly. Each phase delivers real gains in release speed and code quality, while our embedded engineers ensure your delivery rhythm is uninterrupted. When you’re ready to see your customized breakdown, our free Technical Debt Assessment will guide you forward, transforming legacy debt into a catalyst for your roadmap.

  • How can I modernize my legacy application without disrupting my business?

    Modernize in parallel with production. Run new services in a shadow environment next to your legacy system. Run real-time checks and release each component only when it meets your stability bar. Your users stay on the old platform while you gradually introduce modern APIs, refactor core logic, and retire obsolete code, all without disrupting ongoing operations.

    Integrate each migration step into your existing delivery pipeline. Automate tests, perform code reviews, and roll out changes via Canary Deployments. Assign migration tickets to your engineers within regular sprint cycles. Couple knowledge capture with live documentation and instrument each release with observation hooks. The result is a continuous flow of functionality, transparent progress, and a modern architecture that fits seamlessly into your processes.

  • What are the risks of migrating a legacy system, and how can they be mitigated?

    Migrating a legacy system poses risks to data integrity, unexpected downtime, hidden dependencies, and security vulnerabilities that can lead to security breaches. Surprise regressions and integration errors derail schedules and take away focus, while knowledge gaps related to outdated code lead to budget surprises and team burnout.

    Eliminate risk with a comprehensive audit that captures all dependencies, backs up data, and performs parallel migrations to ensure seamless operations. Deploy modules behind feature flags, run every step through automated tests and canary releases, and integrate rollback plans into your pipeline. Combine cross-functional governance with real-time monitoring and runbooks for live events to identify any deviations before they reach your users.

  • Should I migrate my legacy system to the cloud or rebuild it from scratch?

    Migrating to the cloud fast-tracks your path to modern infrastructure by transforming your existing code into scalable, managed services. You preserve business logic, reduce hardware overhead, and take advantage of advanced cloud features — including auto-scaling, global load balancing, and built-in resiliency — without having to rewrite every line. Your team focuses on delivering functionality while the cloud provides capacity, backups, and security patches, making it easier to migrate legacy applications efficiently.

    When you build from scratch, you can use the latest architectures, languages, and frameworks tailored to your needs. You eliminate hidden technical debt, incorporate microservices or serverless patterns from day one, and optimize for developer velocity and future change. This requires more time and upfront investment, but your result is a lean, purpose-built platform that scales to your expectations. Choose to migrate for quick wins and reduced risk in deployment. Choose to rebuild when you need complete control over architecture, standards, and long-term agility.

  • How long does a legacy system migration typically take?

    Smaller migrations are often completed in a handful of agile cycles, while enterprise-wide transformations span multiple phases aligned to your roadmap. By dividing modules into phases, validating behind feature flags, and automating tests in your existing pipeline, you ensure that releases flow uninterrupted as each slice is released steadily from the legacy system.
