2. Modernization Modernization is founded on… Transforming the business
What is modernization?
Modernization is a multi-year process that revitalizes IT assets to enable the enterprise to rapidly respond to changing market conditions in a highly efficient manner.
Modernization is founded on…
Transforming the business
Implementing service oriented architectures
Achieving enterprise agility
Aligning applications to business processes
Preserving business knowledge
Reducing the cost of IT
Like any corporate asset, IT requires revitalization in order for the asset to remain viable and current and not become a liability. Legacy systems, and their lack of agility, have become a barrier to change, making them a liability in today’s business world. At the same time, the evolution of technology has created the next generation of IT standards that position IT as an enabler to the agile enterprise.
As such, revitalization of IT assets is becoming paramount in order for companies to respond to rapidly changing market conditions. The path to revitalization is modernization of the assets, and the goal is for IT to enable enterprise agility while preserving the business knowledge that has been built up in legacy applications through many years of IT investment.

3. Modernization Approach
Achieve the modernization goals H
Increase Business Agility
Reduce IT Cost
Rigidity
Fragmented, hard-wired IT systems and business processes have no leverage or flexibility to deal with customer and supplier variation.
Agility
Highly leveraged highly responsive IT systems aligned to business processes and business strategies.
Leverage
Here we establish the linkage between the Modernization Approach and EDS Applications Modernization Services (in the next section) by introducing the three phases of the EDS Modernization Framework (Assess, Modernize, Manage) on the path to Agility.
We also tie back to the original goals of:
Increasing business agility
Reducing the cost of IT

5. EDS Modernization Strategies
Elective strategies governing the modernization roadmap
Re-learn: Detailed understanding of current state application baseline.
Re-factor: Code analysis and restructuring to improve maintainability and performance.
Re-host: Migrate to lower cost platforms without changing application features and functions.
Re-interface: Establish web based service oriented new features and functionality.
Re-architect: Forward engineer applications to modern service oriented architectures.
Replace: Replace applications with enterprise packages or custom developed applications.
EDS’ modernization strategies are elective strategies that can be applied to individual applications or groups of applications in the portfolio based on the strategic value of the application.
The Modernization Roadmap defines what strategy gets applied to what applications.
Re-learn is imbedded in almost all modernization activity to get a detailed understanding of application characteristics and to reduce the migration risk of subsequent modernization activities.
Re-factor is a service that analyzes code structure and code performance with the goal of improving the maintainability and performance of the code.
Re-host migrates applications to lower cost platforms without changing the application code base, features, functions, look or feel of the application.
Re-interface establishes new web based service oriented interfaces to existing or rehosted applications.
Re-architect reverse engineers applications to their baseline requirements then forward engineers those applications to new languages and new architectures based on modern open standards.
Replace implements enterprise packages or develops custom applications to replace existing legacy applications.
Retire decommissions applications from service.
EDS, working in conjunction with the client, elects the right modernization strategy to be applied to each application in the portfolio.
Retire: Decommission applications and systems from service.
Applying the right strategy, to the right application, based on application strategic value.

The EDS Modernization Framework is a three phase framework to:
Assess – Perform an applications rationalization assessment and develop an “operationally safe” modernization roadmap and supporting business case for change
Modernize – Revitalize IT assets over a multi-year modernization program that creates a modern agile (service oriented) application architecture
Manage – Host and manage applications using cost effective managed services scaled to meet application demands
The framework includes all the elements of effective change management and program management, quality assurance and service excellence.
EDS Applications Modernization Services delivers the Assess phase services and the Modernize phase services.
In the Manage phase, clients then have the option to transition the revitalized applications portfolio over to EDS for optimized applications management and hosting, or EDS may transition the applications back to the client for ongoing support. EDS Manage phase services greatly reduce the capital expense requirements for hardware and training by leveraging EDS’ modern infrastructure and optimal (BestShore) resourcing.
