Update Your Outdated Applications and Meet Modern Business Opportunities with Legacy App Modernisation
Legacy applications are often viewed as a roadblock to innovation owing to their extensive maintenance of hardware and software, interoperability, and need for scalability to meet modern business requirements and possibilities. By modernising legacy applications, organisations can update or improve their existing software or outdated applications, thereby improving the UI/UX experience along with enhancing the security framework of the application per modern business threats.
Modernising legacy applications helps businesses harness the advancements of newer technologies, such as cloud infrastructure, disaster recovery solutions, and other critical innovations, ensuring business continuity in the event of any unexpected downtime. Also, with modernised applications, businesses can gain real-time visibility on insights, which helps them make faster, data-driven decisions.
From implementing new architectures to updating the technology stack to meet evolving business needs and threats, SquareOne’s legacy application modernisation strategy ensures every application is reviewed, analysed, and updated to improve business responsiveness, agility, interoperability, and performance.
Allows legacy applications to be broken down into smaller components known as microservices, enabling a more flexible and faster update.
Leverages containerisation to package legacy applications for consistent deployment across various environments.
API integration enables seamless communication between legacy systems and modern applications, ensuring better data flow and interoperability with other services.
SquareOne’s Agile Approach for Legacy App Modernisation Solution
Assessment and Analysis
Conduct a preliminary evaluation of the existing legacy applications, their architecture, technology stack, and performance. This will help our team understand the organisation’s operational, maintenance, and security challenges.
Establish Modernisation Strategies
Based on the assessment findings, the team will decide whether to opt for refactor, rehost, re-platform, or replace the application.
Design and Planning
As a next step, we move onto the planning and designing phase, where we focus on the timelines and resources, along with considerations for cloud integration, API services, and microservices.
Implementation and Testing
Once the approach has been finalised, we proceed with the implementation and testing process, which includes rewriting the code, migrating to cloud infrastructure, or integrating modern technologies.
Monitoring and Optimisation
Through our post-implementation process, we offer support for monitoring, maintenance, and optimisation of the delivered solution to ensure it stays effective in terms of performance and aligned with business objectives.

Key Process Involved in Legacy App Modernisation Solution
Code Refactoring
In this process, we restructure or optimise the existing codebase with the aim of improving and making the internal structure more adaptable to future changes.
Platform Rehosting
Known as lift and shift, this process moves the legacy application from its expired infrastructure (on-premise) to a modern environment (cloud infrastructure) with minimal or no modification to the application’s code.
Containerisation
This involves packaging legacy applications and all their dependencies in one container, ensuring the application is portable and behaves the same way regardless of the environment—be it development, testing, or production.
API Development
APIs act as bridges that allow different software applications to communicate with each other. By expanding APIs within a legacy system, it becomes possible for the application to interact with modern technologies, services, or third-party platforms.
Primary Advantages of Legacy App Modernisation Solution

FAQs
SquareOne’s legacy application modernisation services range from
- Code refactoring
- Platform rehosting
- API development for enhanced interoperability
- Data migration and transformation
- User interface (UI) and experience (UX) improvement
- Integration with modern analytics and automation tools
SquareOne’s commitment to delivering application modernisation solutions in Dubai highlights our dedication to fostering a nation that fully embraces digital transformation in all its facets, from tailoring solutions to providing post-implementation support.
Data is a main component of modern businesses, and safeguarding it is very important during the modernisation process. SquareOne ensures the data to be migrated or modernised is very well protected by implementing data encryption and role-based access controls. This ensures the data is locked or authenticated from illegal or unauthorised access, even in the event of a data breach.
The key benefits of implementing a legacy application modernisation include
- Improved Performance: Legacy application modernisation helps enhance the technology stack, which in turn increases the efficiency of the application performance, leading to faster load times, better system responsiveness, and overall improved performance.
- Scalability: By modernising applications, businesses can scale its requirements to accommodate growing data volumes, transaction numbers and user counts. This helps businesses stay updated to evolving business requirements without affecting performance and efficiency of business processes.
- Cost Savings: The need to maintain outdated hardware and software applications is reduced by opting for modernisation. Moving to modern technology such as cloud infrastructure offers businesses flexible pricing models, allowing businesses to pay for only the resources they use. Thus, reducing license costs and other implementation expenses.
- Better User Experience: Modernization refreshes the UI to align with current design standards, making the application more intuitive, responsive, and accessible across different devices (desktop, mobile, tablet). This leads to higher user satisfaction and productivity.
