Disparate Legacy Systems
Welcome to my latest blog post all about solving the challenge of disparate legacy systems! As a cyber governance & risk management leader, I have seen firsthand the struggles that organizations face when dealing with outdated and incompatible legacy systems. But have no fear, there is a solution to this common problem – Solix.
Cost savings can be a huge benefit of transitioning away from disparate legacy systems. Just imagine walking through your data center and picking up one-hundred-dollar bills. A study by the compliance, governance, and oversight council found that organizations could save an average of $40,000 annually by decommissioning inactive applications. For larger enterprise-class applications, the savings could exceed $120,000.
One way Solix can help with this challenge is through their SolixCloud Application Retirement and Decommissioning Service. This service allows organizations to retire and decommission legacy applications at a low, fixed monthly cost. Not only does this reduce infrastructure costs, but it also supports structured, unstructured, and semi-structured data. With application-specific accelerators for various platforms, organizations can easily transition to modern alternatives while still maintaining access to retired data through text search, legacy reports, and ad-hoc query.
But the benefits don’t stop there. Solix’s Enterprise Archiving Solution provides a fully managed, cloud-scale, compliant archive repository for less-active enterprise data. This helps organizations to manage data growth, reduce costs, and meet compliance objectives. Through advanced information lifecycle management, organizations can handle regulatory requirements and minimize the risk of accidental data deletion from the archive. With support for multiple cases, robust text search, and structured and ad-hoc reporting, compliance and legal professionals can quickly identify and retrieve records as needed.
End-to-end metadata management is another key feature of Solix’s solution. This framework allows organizations to explore all enterprise metadata and lineage from a centralized repository, establishing consistent descriptions and business context for data. Comprehensive reporting for all structured data, as well as ODBC, JDBC, SQL access, and a comprehensive REST API, further enhance the capabilities of Solix’s metadata management.
- Wind·up disparate legacy systems don’t have to be a thorn in your side. With Solix’s innovative solutions, organizations can retire and decommission legacy applications, reduce infrastructure costs, and meet compliance objectives with ease.
