Application Modernisation: Evolving your core systems

Reduce the Complexity

While technology leaders understand there are many ways to redefine the future through the investment in digital, finding the most cost-effective route with acceptable levels of risk mitigation is the challenge.

With the rise of microservices, open source architectures, and ability to decentralise information flow through data fabrics (mesh), there is a growing trend of bringing new features, and modern functionality to existing core business applications.

Primary industries, including agriculture, fisheries, aquaculture, forestry and food to name a few, are central to the Australian and New Zealand economies. The uptake of new and emerging technologies is critical for ongoing growth and innovation in these industries. However, the challenge that comes with continuously adopting new technology over the years, is the resulting mix of legacy and modern applications. If not managed well, these systems can quickly become disjointed and lack interoperability.

How application modernisation helps

Avoid the end of support

Often it seems that replacing or upgrading your applications is the only way forward, but doing so can mean losing key customisations and processes built over the years that are central to your way of working.

Engage customers

Your customers are requesting access to information you store and you want to share it in an interesting and engaging way. Currently this isn't possible with your applications.

Run on the cloud

You want the benefits enabled by cloud hosting but you don't want the extensive programme of work to move all of your on-prem systems and map established business processes for continuity.

Employee engagement

You have part of your core system that gets circumvented because it's not intuitive or straightforward to use. You need to keep the function, but enhance the user experience.
