About the Book
Legacy Modernization, or Software modernization, refers to the conversion, rewriting or porting of a legacy system to a modern computer programming language, software libraries, protocols, or hardware platform. Legacy transformation aims to retain and extend the value of the legacy investment through migration to new platforms. This book is your ultimate resource for Legacy Application Modernization. Here you will find the most up-to-date information, analysis, background and everything you need to know.
