/ The challenge
Critical, ageing, and on a closed network.
Every change carried risk, the people who understood the code were fewer each year, and a stoppage was not an option for the team that depended on it.
Where it had to run
Closed network, on-premise
/ Our approach
Mapped first, migrated in phases.
- 01
Dependencies mapped
Every dependency documented before a line of code changed.
- 02
Re-platformed in phases
The system moved a part at a time, never in one cutover.
- 03
Old and new in parallel
Both systems ran side by side until the new one had earned the switch.
- 04
Reconciled at every stage
Data checked against the old system at each phase, so nothing was lost.
