Digital Modernization
Legacy Systems Transformed
Strategic Overview
Legacy systems are the silent anchor holding enterprises back from digital agility. NEYD's Digital Modernization practice specializes in the careful, risk-managed transformation of aging monolithic platforms into modern, composable architectures. Using the 'Strangler Fig' pattern and domain-driven design principles, we incrementally decouple your critical systems - allowing innovation at the edge while stabilizing the core.
Our approach prioritizes business continuity above all else. We understand that established enterprises cannot simply pause operations to rewrite their core platforms. Every modernization step is designed with rollback capabilities, feature parity validation, and zero-downtime migration strategies. We decompose your domain into bounded contexts and incrementally extract microservices that can be independently deployed and scaled.
Beyond the technical migration, we address the organizational transformation required for sustained agility. We help your teams adopt cloud-native development practices, implement GitOps workflows, and establish platform engineering capabilities that accelerate future development. The result is not just a modern stack - it's a modern engineering culture capable of continuous innovation.
Legacy Assessment
Deep-dive analysis of existing systems, dependencies, and technical debt to create a prioritized modernization roadmap.
Cloud Migration
Strategic lift-and-shift, re-platforming, or re-architecture to AWS, Azure, or GCP with minimal disruption.
API-First Architecture
Exposing legacy capabilities through modern REST/GraphQL APIs for ecosystem integration and partner enablement.
Data Migration
Safe, validated migration of critical data assets with integrity checks, rollback plans, and zero data loss guarantees.
Our Process
We follow a six-step process
Assessment
Comprehensive audit of your legacy landscape including architecture mapping, dependency analysis, and technical debt quantification. We identify quick wins and define the modernization priority matrix.
Strategy
Design the target architecture and migration roadmap. We select the right patterns - strangler fig, parallel run, or big bang - based on your risk tolerance and business constraints.
Foundation
Establish the cloud-native foundation: container orchestration, CI/CD pipelines, observability stack, and security baselines. This platform enables all subsequent migration work.
Migration
Incrementally extract and modernize services following the defined roadmap. Each migration wave includes automated testing, performance validation, and zero-downtime cutover procedures.
Validation
Comprehensive testing of migrated systems including load testing, chaos engineering, and business process validation. We ensure feature parity and performance improvements before decommissioning legacy components.
Optimization
Post-migration performance tuning, cost optimization, and knowledge transfer. We ensure your teams are fully equipped to operate and evolve the modernized platform independently.
Operational Logistics
Engagement Details
The talents work remotely from home, at our premises in Tbilisi, Georgia, or in their local coworking spaces.
We evaluate the candidates' experience and present you with the top options for the final interview. Alternatively, you can test them on your end to ensure you make the right decision.
Talents can use their own hardware, or we can provide laptops tailored to your specific requirements. If our setup doesn't meet your needs, you can either rent hardware from us or send your own equipment to our office in Tbilisi.
Our talents are entitled to up to 24 days of paid vacation per year. Consultants and freelancers can take up to 24 days of unpaid vacation annually, meaning you only pay for the time they actually work.
Our talents are entitled to up to 40 days of paid sick leave per year, while consultants and freelancers are entitled to up to 40 days of unpaid sick leave annually. This ensures you only pay for the time worked, not for sick days.
