Legacy OS

As organizations continue to evolve and grow, the need to manage legacy OS becomes increasingly crucial. Legacy OS can present numerous challenges, including security vulnerabilities, compatibility issues, and increased maintenance costs. However, with the right approach and the help of innovative solutions like Solix, companies can efficiently address these challenges and pave the way for future success.

Cost Savings with Application Decommissioning

Imagine walking through your data center and picking up one-hundred-dollar bills. That’s essentially what cost savings from legacy OS decommissioning can feel like. A study conducted by the Compliance, Governance, and Oversight Council revealed that companies can save an average of $40,000 annually by decommissioning inactive applications. For larger enterprise-class applications, the savings could exceed $120,000. With SolixCloud Application Retirement and Decommissioning, organizations can rationalize their application portfolio, reduce infrastructure costs, and transition from complex, on-prem legacy OS application management to modern, SaaS-based alternatives.

Key Benefits of Application Retirement

  • Retire and decommission legacy OS applications at a low, fixed monthly cost.
  • Meet compliance goals with policy-based data retention, legal hold, and role-based access.
  • Leverage application-specific accelerators for seamless migration.
  • Eliminate the maintenance, infrastructure, and licensing costs of legacy OS applications.

Enterprise Archiving for Improved Data Governance

SolixCloud Enterprise Archiving provides a fully managed, compliant archive repository for less-active enterprise data and the retirement of legacy OS applications. By centralizing data governance and administration, organizations can improve application performance, optimize infrastructure, and manage data growth. The platform supports a wide range of data sources, including ERP, CRM, custom apps, mainframes, file servers, and more.

eDiscovery & Legal Hold

With Solix, compliance and legal professionals can quickly identify and retrieve records to meet data requests from regulatory agencies and law enforcement.

By classifying data at creation and moving it across infrastructure tiers based on business rules and retention policies, organizations can optimize their infrastructure, establish a control framework for data governance, and ensure compliance with regulatory requirements.

End-to-end Metadata Management

Solix Metadata Management offers an end-to-end framework to explore enterprise metadata and lineage from a centralized repository. By understanding the data lifecycle, establishing consistent descriptions, and providing business context for data, organizations can enhance their data governance practices and improve data quality.
