When companies consider database migration or legacy application modernization, they should realize that the migration itself is just the tip of the iceberg. Database or application modernization includes a lot of pre-migration and post-migration activities, such as planning, testing, deployment, validation, and maintenance of the new system. However, each of these stages may pose a challenge of its own.

Preparation and migration are defining steps. The expertise the team gains while developing and maintaining the legacy system does not necessarily mean they are qualified to prepare it for migration and perform the migration to the target technology on their own. Yet all the while, those are the steps that determine the success of the entire modernization journey. Whereas, maintenance, support and further development of the new system after migration require a different set of skills and expertise in the new technology that your current staff may lack. As for the extension of functionality, even a small update can lead to numerous conflicts in the system. Thus, any change or update of a system requires time and effort, neither of which is cheap.

Consulting on target technology

We will advise you on a target technology that will eliminate the shortcomings of your current one and will be easier to migrate to. Moreover, we can conduct a test migration to several target platforms. Based on the results, you will be able to make the right choice.

Database audit

We will monitor the database to evaluate its performance, as well as identify performance and security issues. As a result, you will receive a report with the analysis of the current database configuration, as well as a list of identified issues along with the recommendations on how to fix them.

Application audit

We will examine your application to evaluate its performance, identify bottleneck features, potential security vulnerabilities and any significant errors. As a result, you will receive a list of vulnerabilities and a plan for their elimination.

Refactoring

We will clean up the code and eliminate unnecessary elements. This service will greatly simplify the source code which in turn will make migration significantly easier.

Ispirer Post-Migration Services

Migrating to a new environment is a major step towards modernization, but not the only thing that could be done. Once the migration is successfully completed, it is time for further updates. Your modern RDBMS or application creates opportunities to modernize your systems in numerous ways. Actually, some companies may lack experts on the new technology once the transition is completed. We offer assistance and consulting on the technical stages of the launching process and optimal implementation of the new system.

Testing

At Ispirer, quality comes first and foremost. We will quickly identify problems with functionality, compatibility, environment, security, performance, etc. We implement advanced quality assurance and testing to help our customers provide better solutions, reduce development costs and improve operational performance.

Deployment and integration

To optimize the use of the entire system, we help to establish an intelligent correlation between data and business logic, monitoring and management tools, multiple databases, applications and utilities. We will install, configure, and enable an application or system function in your environment. Furthermore, we will reliably integrate applications or databases with cloud or on-premises systems, and other infrastructure elements.

Refactoring

We will change the internal structure of the program code, without affecting its external behavior, in order to optimize performance. Through refactoring, we will make your code clean and concise.

Performance optimization

We convert databases and applications by applying the automation tools. Using various methods, we identify the shortcomings and enhance the outcome. Ispirer experts will tailor the result code to optimize its performance, increase the speed, and avoid inefficient memory usage.

Support and maintenance

It is critical to ensure that you have the technology, team and processes needed to operate and get the real value out of the new system. A broad range of maintenance activities ensuring data integrity, optimal use of database space and performance tuning, can be carried out by Ispirer experts.

New features delivery

The real benefit of a legacy application modernization is that you can enhance the new system and make it more functional. During the migration, Ispirer experts gain deep understanding of the system architecture and code structures and are capable of adding new functionality faster and cheaper.

What Our Customers Say

Jeremy Hearn | Solution Architect

"We have found the tool to be powerful, and robust, which has facilitated the smooth conversion of one of our core systems from Informix 7.3.1 running on a Sun Unix enviroment to an enviroment running Windows Server 2008 SQL Server 2008."

Erik Johnson | Vice President

"We have found the Ispirer team to be knowledgeable and responsive and we have found the tooling to be flexible enough to be easily adapted to our coding conventions."

Wayne Pennell | Web Architect

"We found the SQLWays product and the Ispirer Systems support staff to be an enormous asset and an exceptional value to our migration team. The interface with the entire Ispirer organization was seamless and extremely efficient."

Jose Mendoza | Principal DBA

"We were thrilled when we found out that the migration could be performed only in a few months taking into account the large amount of data that need to be converted and our specific requirements."

Eric Kalabacos | Vice President

"At the onset of the engagement the Ispirer MnMTK was expanded to meet the specific requirements of our migration prior to being delivered for our use. Once this phase of the project was complete we were provided with the expanded toolkit."

Sam Clark | IT Manager

"Ispirer MnMTK was crucial to the successful completion of our database conversion project. We had tried several different strategies and tools previously and none of them compared to Ispirer MnMTK. It was definitely money well spent."

Emmanuel Marques | Deputy IT Director

"The Ispirer team turned out to be very responsive, our customization requests were processed very quickly.Thanks to the tool, the only thing left to do was to fix 2 or 3 statements that were not automated during the migration process."

Vladimir Labar | Software Developer

"Because of Ispirer and MnMTK, our team was able to devote its time to build the infrastructure for new Java programs instead of spending time on converting code. The produced Java code met all our maintainability, readability and performance requirements."
