Application modernization is a key part in the life cycle of any software application. When an application gets old, its source code needs to be modernized by updating the programming language, software platform, libraries, third-party components, application code itself, integration mechanisms or delivery platforms. Minor updates like updating version numbers of libraries is done manually by application maintenance teams as part of their usual process, but major updates for large systems are usually too labor-intensive and risky to do manually, requiring automated modernization, as made possible by Eqela.
Application migration moves an application from one deployment platform to another, eg. from physical servers in a data center to the cloud, or from one cloud provider to another. Migrations are sometimes done without modernization (by simply installing an existing software on a new server somewhere else), but normally the major benefits of a migration project are only achieved when modernizing the actual application to properly match the new environment. This is why Eqela enables a combination of "Modernization and Migration" solutions to achieve optimal results.
A modern on-premises data center can be a flexible, dynamic environment where container-based modern applications can thrive. But to move an app from a physical server or a virtual machine to a containerized environment will require modernization and re-structuring of the application itself, such as:

When moving applications to the cloud, automated modernization into a cloud-native architecture is the best way to achieve lasting benefits and reliable applications. Eqela can generate code necessary for a full AWS-native application implementation, including:

In the earlier days of the cloud, application deployments were often characterized by the heavy use and provisioning of virtual machines, with manual or automated deployment of different server components on those machines, in much the same manner as in traditional on-premises deployments. Beyond the provisioning of the servers themselves, most of the application deployment and maintenance would be done as it had been done before. While these "lift-and-shift" cloud migrations offered a quick way to enter the cloud, cloud-native services were not used, and the full benefits of using the cloud were not achieved.
Modernization of older virtual machine -based cloud infrastructures looks very similar to modernizing an on-premises application: Replacement of virtual machines with cloud-native services and containerization; reduction of administrative overhead and maintenance costs.

Sometimes a modernization involves migration between different cloud providers. We’ve got you covered there as well! Transform applications from source architectures on one cloud to a modern architecture on another, utilizing appropriate cloud-native components in the process.
At Eqela, our modernization process follows a proven framework—from assessment to execution—ensuring smooth transitions for both on-premise and cloud infrastructures. Whether upgrading legacy systems or enabling cloud-native architectures, we apply automation, security, and scalability at every step. The result: optimized performance, simplified management, and future-ready operations.
Traditional software redevelopment projects can take years—draining time, resources, and momentum. With Eqela's intelligent automation and proprietary technology, we dramatically reduce delivery timelines, enabling faster innovation and quicker returns on investment.
