WHITE PAPER Doing this is an effective way of utilizing years of investment in legacy Progress development while bringing in the advantages of new age applications to meet your e-business objectives. In cases where the underlying legacy application has no chance for Re- Use and integration due to an overtly poor design and code, JKT recommends re-engineering and re-building the application. If you are keen to remain with Progress, there is some chance of Re-Use. If you are migrating to .Net, there is no chance of Re-Use. COTS Product Implementation The traditionally closed business processes of ERP and CRM solutions written on legacy Progress need to be opened up owing to the changing ways of doing business. COTS products provide viable options to replace legacy systems in some cases. The major reasons for you to decide in favor of a COTS solution implementation are as follows: • There are major changes needed to existing business processes and the identified COTS product can do this out-of-the-box, without customization. • Organizations like the standard business processes provided by COTS and can change their own processes with ease. • If your base legacy application is very poorly designed and integrating or Re-Engineering it is a costly exercise. • The COTS solution is considered to be more cost-effective in the medium- to long-term, depending on the business case. • It provides a more flexible, open platform for further enhancements. Cloud Enablement The Cloud provides you with a good opportunity to modernize your ailing infrastructure and platforms for Progress applications that are otherwise serving well with their business processes, features and functionality. Traditionally, the Cloud enables you to offload the creation and maintenance of data centers, thereby reducing IT’s dependency on internal assets. With the introduction of Cloud services by Progress, and a bouquet of offerings getting available under Progress Pacific alongside other options, the Cloud has become a reality for the Progress community. These are the Cloud computing options that Progress offers: • Progress Arcade PaaS which enables existing 10.2 and above versions of Progress applications to run on the Progress Certified 8
WHITE PAPER Cloud. Since Progress provides the flexibility of procuring client licenses, it is a good fit where there is sudden upswing and downswing in the number of end users • Amazon Web Service AWS PaaS, which enables the deployment of any version of Progress applications on the Amazon Cloud. This becomes a viable option for Cloud deployment in case the client licenses for the target version are already procured, and a need arises for scalable hardware and an operating platform. aPaaS Migration aPaaS (Application Platform as Service) is a new entrant in the modernization arena and capturing the attention of user organizations. The way conventional application development and deployment is undertaken may soon become a thing of the past. With distributed teams and resources it makes even more sense for you to go for aPaaSbased development and deployment environment. Progress now provides two aPaaS platforms you can choose from: Progess Pacific Rollbase aPaaS which enables Re-Engineering and migration of applications to a new Cloud-based aPaas solution. It is a high productivity, rapid application development platform that allows the creation of a Progress-based application on the Cloud that can be integrated with on-premises solutions using Progress Datadirect. Node.js on Modules, which is a high control application development system available as a Cloud-based aPaaS solution. Supported by the large Open Source community and daily contributions from developers, Node.js a rich platform for creating complex applications. The Mongo DB with a native connector or connections through Datadirect can offer you seamless connectivity with your choice of a Big Data solution and RDBMS system. Getting your Facebook and Twitter data analyzed by developing high control map-reduce jobs and having them channeled into your business decision making has been made easier by Modules and Progress. Legacy Modernization of old applications needs to be assessed in the context of various important influences. You must take into consideration all factors and dynamics while embarking on your modernization journey. You also require a well-conceived framework to assess your technical and business priorities and options for modernizing legacy applications. 9
