Imposing services-oriented architecture on a legacy application environment cannot be achieved simply by wrapping online transactions. Poorly aligned data structures and applications limit data accessibility and functional flexibility. Underlying fragmentation, redundancy and batch structures are the antithesis of SOA. To truly achieve SOA, organizations must develop a phased approach to redesigning and redeploying data structures and modernizing applications. This session outlines a phased approach to data migration and application modularization, including redundancy reconciliation and functional re-aggregation of legacy systems. This produces a baseline for reusable services and other migration options.
