Modernization of Apps

One of the main topics discussed in the seminar I attended was modernizing legacy applications.

Legacy applications are typically monolithic in nature, making it difficult to scale or integrate new features quickly. The monolithic apps ruled the software industry for a very longer time, but now people are moving (already many moved) to its great alternative, the microservice architecture.

I’ve come across monolithic applications that are tightly coupled with environments like Oracle or .NET, where growth can become a painful process. Over time, these systems tend to become slow, expensive to maintain, and resistant to change.
