Reduce technical debt and modernize legacy applications

Use cases

Windows

We accelerate the modernization of full-stack Windows applications and transform entire technology stacks – including .NET applications, outdated UI frameworks, databases, and deployment processes – into modern, cloud-enabled solutions. Our approach allows modernization teams to consistently execute larger and more complex projects, reduce operational costs, and improve code quality, performance, and security across all technology layers. We support the analysis, planning, and execution of modernization, including UI updates, database migrations, and the implementation of modern deployment processes, while providing continuous progress reports and summaries.

Mainframe

We make the modernization of mainframe applications efficient and practical. Our approach covers all core phases – from analysis and planning to code adjustments and application redesign. This enables modernization projects to be executed faster, more securely, and with greater control. A unified platform facilitates collaboration across teams and helps organizations reliably carry out complex modernization efforts.

VMware

We support organizations in modernizing their VMware workloads. This includes analyzing applications and dependencies, aligning network structures, planning migration waves, and selecting appropriate resources. This enables efficient modernization and helps reduce operational costs.

Custom

We accelerate enterprise-wide application modernization and support both standard and custom transformations. This includes typical updates such as Java, Node.js, or Python upgrades, as well as organization-specific adjustments like version updates, runtime migrations, complex language translations, or architectural changes. Through thorough analysis, best practices, and continuous learning from code, documentation, and developer feedback, we deliver high-quality, repeatable modernizations that enable efficient scaling of modernization initiatives.

Move your IT to the cloud and benefit from real efficiency gains

Our Approach

With Lift & Transform, you receive a working MVP within a maximum of three months, covering initial use cases and providing valuable feedback.

We modernize your applications step by step. First, we analyze your existing architecture, technologies, code, and interfaces and create a transparent risk assessment for data protection and security. Based on this, we define the target state, plan the cloud architecture, the migration scenario, and provide a binding effort estimate for modernization and operations. We then execute the plan agilely: using AI-assisted code transformation and continuous quality assurance, we move your applications to the cloud. Finally, we operate your application as a highly automated managed service in your private cloud (VPC), allowing you to start working productively immediately.
