Strategic advisory to modernize legacy systems, migrate to cloud-native architectures, and automate operational processes without disrupting your active business.

The Challenge

What breaks without this

High maintenance costs from legacy software, slow feature delivery due to tech debt, and risk of business disruption during legacy modernization.

  • A legacy monolith that predates the cloud makes adding any new feature a 6-month project

  • Tech debt has accumulated to the point where developers spend 70% of time on maintenance, not features

  • A full rewrite is too risky — the business can't afford to pause operations for 18 months

  • No one on the team fully understands how the legacy system works anymore

Our Approach

How we deliver this

01

Legacy assessment & tech debt audit

We analyse the codebase, database schema, integration points, and infrastructure. We map which parts are safe to replace first and which carry the highest risk.

02

Target architecture design

We design the target cloud-native architecture and define the migration path — strangler-fig pattern, microservices decomposition, or selective replatforming — with a phased roadmap.

03

Phased execution

Squads are deployed to build new services alongside the legacy system, routing traffic progressively. The old system stays live until each replacement module is verified in production.

04

Team enablement & handover

We run knowledge transfer sessions, write internal documentation, and upskill your team on the new architecture so they can maintain and extend it independently.

Key Benefits

What you gain

Tech debt audits and modernization roadmaps aligned with business goals.

Legacy strangler-fig migration strategies to replace monoliths incrementally.

Cloud-native architecture blueprints for high scalability and security.

Automated business processes and integrated data flows (DATEV, ERP).

Comprehensive risk assessment, mitigation plans, and team upskilling.

Concrete deliverables

Every engagement ends with tangible artefacts you own and can hand to any team.

Digital maturity assessment and tech debt audit reports.

Target system architecture blueprints and transition roadmaps.

Business process automation flows and API integration maps.

Financial modeling (migration cost vs. long-term cloud ROI).

Change management plans and developer training materials.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

We do both. We believe consulting is only valuable if it can be successfully executed. We design the roadmap and architecture, and then we deploy our dedicated development squads to build and launch the target systems.

We use the 'strangler-fig' pattern: we build modern microservices alongside the legacy monolith, routing specific traffic to the new services step-by-step. This ensures that the system is never completely offline and makes cutover issues easy to roll back.

A standard discovery and assessment phase takes 4–8 weeks. During this time, we shadow teams, analyze the codebase, draft target architectures, and deliver a prioritized modernization roadmap with cost/benefit analysis.
