Re-engineering Legacy to Web Application

Reengineering of software is described as the examination and alteration of a system to reconstitute in a new form. The approach is to renovate and extend the current application into new technology to best support the needs of the current business. Application modernization should be achieved by leveraging the existing investment in application infrastructure and reposition the product advantageously for the future. The challenge on hand is to convert legacy application to web application by reengineering legacy components to re-usable components. The web application can be easily integrated with web technologies.
