Arangen's platform-independent migration solutions use federation technology to unlock legacy data silos and restructure legacy data for reuse. Arangen federation provides real-time access to restructured legacy data via virtual-database technology. Arangen migration uses consolidation technology to migrate re-engineered legacy data to the targeted destination databases. Arangen Migration provides a gradual, phased roll-over process to carefully switch business operations to modernized business applications.

Arangen's platform-independent migration solutions attach to legacy data silos without disturbing on-going, live business operations. Arangen technology enables modernized business applications to be deployed alongside existing legacy applications and share enterprise data. Enabling new and old applications to run side-by-side simplifies the task of validation and acceptance testing. Arangen migration technology enables legacy applications supporting normal business operations to continue running, non-stop, throughout the migration process.

Arangen Migration Service supports Standard and Complex Migration.

Standard migration manages business modernization to replace aging legacy systems. Arangen's platform-independent migration solutions provide access to restructured legacy data to enable enterprise architects and developers to re-design and re-build their business systems. Arangen technology enables new and upgraded business applications to be deployed, tested, and validated along-side existing legacy applications without disturbing ongoing business operations. When new systems validate and pass acceptance, then restructured legacy data can be consolidated into the new databases. The old legacy systems can be shut down and retired, and the Arangen framework can be removed.

Complex migration manages business integration to enable legacy systems to work together. A good example would be the acquisition of a new business unit whose business systems and operations must be integrated into the parent's IT operations. Both business units need to share business data and operations. Arangen complex federation is applied to re-map and restructure legacy data from both sides to provide integrated data access to both sets of business applications. New or upgraded business applications may be required to complete the business systems integration. Once all applications are deployed and pass validation/acceptance testing, then consolidation is applied move the relevant legacy data into new or existing databases. Business operations are transfered to the new, migrated system using Arangen's phased, roll-over process. When the transfer is complete, the legacy systems that have been consolidated can be shut down and retired. Arangen technology remains in place to support those legacy applications still using the virtual-database-supported legacy data interfaces. When this last set of legacy applications are no longer required, the Arangen framework can be removed.
