  When migrating legacy application systems to the state-of-the-art Open Systems technology, one must first decide whether to re-engineer or rehost the application. Ordina Denkart can then help you implement the chosen solution.

Rehosting or Re-engineering?

When you re-engineer your application, you are taking a fresh approach to creating a new environment. In the process of recreating your application, you will blend your old needs with your new requirements. Most re-engineering projects are multi-million dollar investments that require two or more years to complete with many people working on the effort. IT budgets and planning constraints permitting, re-engineering is by far the best solution for rejuvenating business applications.

Because of the time, costs and resources required to re-engineer applications, many companies rehost them either as an interim or a permanent solution. By rehosting your application, you can port the entire environment from your legacy system and make it work on your new open platform.

There are numerous benefits for rehosting applications. You can move to the flexibility and added functionality of Open Systems while preserving the best from your legacy application. The time it takes to migrate your application is significantly reduced.

Meanwhile, you can continue to use your familiar software on your newer system. And, you save money by reducing or eliminating the expensive operating costs of your older systems by replacing them with new machines. You can even maintain the same user interface thus, eliminating the need for retraining.
