Software Product Platform Migration   



Technology changes are changing the manner of doing business. These technology change waves and consumer preferences associated with them create multiple challenges and opportunities for ISVs and software product companies.

As every product is having its own lifecycle, towards the end of product's life-cycle you start getting the feedback from your existing customers like: high maintainence, performance not matching new customer's expectations, difficulties in integrating the product with other IT solutions, unattractive user interface, difficulties in operating the product, old architecture not supporting the latest technology and business trends. These are the early indicators that the stable and successful product needs to be migrated to re-address the market needs.

Currently major technology drivers for product platform migration and re-engineering include the need to build component-based, service-oriented architecture's (SOA), improving product usability using AJAX capabilities or supporting Software as a Service (SaaS) product delivery platforms utilizing web services integration capabilities.

Changing or adding a platform is a big decision - it requires assessment of market opportunities, validating feasibility, plan for new architecture, and estimation of cost and effort, all of which take resources and cost.
