Information technology applications are usually built around a core component that interacts and influences most of the application. In many cases, specific changes to the core part of the application can improve the application’s performance. An automated modernization, in most cases, maintains the same level of performance that was present in the legacy environment (although often it is improved just by moving to the modern environment). Rewriting only this core part of the application can bring additional improvement to the application’s performance.
BluePhoenix performance experts identify the most critical parts of an application and rewrite these parts in a more efficient manner. In most applications, the core part is less than 10% of the code. Since we mapped and learned the application during the first part of the modernization project, we can perform this delicate task with precision and in a cost-effective manner. We can optimize the core part and ensure that all the relationships between objects in the application are maintained. The application performance is improved and a solid foundation is in place for the future.
