Why migrate business logic from database to application

Enhanced agility

Applications can offer more flexibility and agility in managing and modifying business logic compared to databases. It's easier and faster to update and iterate on application code rather than altering database structures and stored procedures.

Portability

Business logic embedded within applications is typically more portable across different database systems or platforms. This can be beneficial if the business needs to switch database vendors or deploy the application in various environments.

Improved performance

Application servers are much easier to scale than database servers. For example, an application can be placed in a container and used as needed, depending on the load created by users. As a result, it will be much easier and cheaper to achieve the performance you need from the system.

Cost savings

Customers that already migrated their business logic to application benefit from reducing costs of maintainability. Besides, business logic in the application allows developers to focus on high-value tasks, fostering innovation and creativity.

Accelerated time-to-market

Expedite the deployment of new features and functionalities by moving domain logic to an application layer and enable faster innovation cycles.

RDBMS dependency eliminated

Having business logic in the application layer unties your hands if you are planning to change a database management system in the future. Besides, such an approach makes it possible to support several databases simultaneously.

Why migrate with Ispirer

Top-notch security

We comply with ISO 27001 security management requirements with comprehensive policies and processes, advanced security technology, and skilled professionals.

Reduced risk of conversion errors

Automation eliminates the risk of conversion errors inherent in manual migration projects. Automated tools can handle transition of business logic from databases to the application layer with precision, which reduces the likelihood of mistakes that could impact application functionality.

Cost savings

Automated migration not only significantly reduces migration costs compared to manual methods but also saves substantial time. By leveraging automation, you can streamline the migration process efficiently, ensuring cost-effectiveness without sacrificing quality.

Ispirer Toolkit opportunities

Migration with\without connection to databases. Ispirer Toolkit can work with or without a database connection. Both options allow you to successfully migrate business logic from the database to the application level. However, it is worth considering that connecting to the database allows Ispirer Toolkit to take into account additional information from the database and helps improve conversion.
Database API access. Ispirer Toolkit enables users to choose the database API for accessing the database in the target application. Depending on the project's requirements, you can select the most suitable option from the supported APIs: Hibernate, JDBC, LINQ, or ADO.NET.
Migration of Embedded SQL. Ispirer Toolkit offers the opportunity to streamline the migration process of Embedded SQL, reducing manual effort and potential errors. By leveraging this tool, businesses can efficiently transition their Embedded SQL codebase to a new platform.

Customization. Ispirer Toolkit is an expert system that enables you to control migration while achieving excellent conversion quality through customization. In essence, customization is the process of incorporating new conversion rules to the core of Ispirer Toolkit. The Ispirer team can customize our product in order to improve the migration quality to the maximum.
