Application Enhancement During Transformation
 

Metex provides a range of application improvement services during the modernization project, which provides real business value beyond the technical Java or .NET upgrade.

Standard Application Improvements during Metex Modernization

The following application improvements provide a few examples of standard features included in Metex modernization projects:

  • Converting a 2-tier client server application into a 3-tier modern Java or .NET application with a well-organized code structure.
  • An improved User Interface that employs style sheets to render screens or pages.
  • Centralized logging and exception handling.
  • Code optimization and refactoring using the most current Java or .NET functions.

Optional Improvements during Metex Modernization

The following application improvements are some examples of features that may be selected for implementation during Metex modernization projects:

  • Support for localization or internationalization by storing GUI information in resource files.
  • Making business components reusable for other applications.
  • Conversion of screens for multiple device access (e.g. wireless PDA).
  • SOA integration with other applications.

 

 
 

Metex consultants optimize the true value added to a modernization project by reviewing opportunities for application enhancements, upgrades and re-engineering.

The Metex application transformation process is an ideal time to implement legacy application changes that might not be practical in the existing client server environment.

Metex has a wide range of expertise available to our clients including business analysts, User Interface designers, operation analysts and SOA process experts.
