Legacy software modernization company in India

Because we will tell you when you do not need a rebuild. Most systems we are asked to replace need a fix: better hosting, one slow query, an unsupported dependency. When a rebuild is the cheaper path, we say why in writing, then do it piece by piece so the system stays live. The code sits in your repository from the first commit, and every URL that works today still works afterwards.

Usually, yes, and we check that first. A slow system is nine times in ten a hosting, image or database index problem, and that is days of work, not months. We ask for three numbers before anything else: time to first byte, the largest asset on the page and the slowest query in the log. A rebuild only makes sense when two or more of the five signs on this page apply.

In phases. Each PHP module is put behind an API and replaced by a Node.js service one at a time. The database is not migrated in the same step: the new services read and write the existing schema first, and schema changes come later, once traffic has moved. The application stays live throughout, and that is why we can say in advance which URLs will still work afterwards: all of them.

Not one we can show you yet. Our published migration receipt is a framework move of a 10,723-page site, timezones.in, rebuilt on Next.js with no URL lost, counted from the live sitemap. It is not a PHP one. For PHP the method is wrap, replace and switch, and the URL check is the one we ran on timezones.in. If a prior PHP migration is a hard requirement, say so on the call.

Probably not. Microservices let separate teams deploy separately, and they cost you more servers, more monitoring and more ways to fail. A team of fewer than about ten developers is usually better served by one well-organised codebase with the one or two areas that change most split out. We will tell you if yours is the exception.

The first replaced module usually goes live in four to six weeks, and the whole job depends on the size of the codebase and how many of its parts need replacing. We run it as a scoped project, or on the retainer if the system will keep changing after the move. Either way you see working software every few weeks, not a status report.

Tests on the logic that matters, a deployment anyone on your team can run, and notes a new developer can read in an afternoon. The honest answer is that every system ages. What makes one legacy is nobody being able to change it safely, so what we hand over is the ability to change it: the code, the tests and the accounts, all in your name.

It takes software that has become hard or risky to change and makes it workable again, by fixing it, upgrading what it runs on, or replacing it piece by piece. A good one starts by telling you which of those you need and what each costs. The work is done remotely, the code stays in your repository, and the old system keeps running until its replacement is proven.

An assessment of the current system, a fix-or-rebuild recommendation with the reasons, the migration itself, URL and data preservation, and a cut-over plan with a way back. PHP or .NET to Node.js is the common path. Priced from the published rates and scoped once, so you know the number before the work starts.
