Migration
Software migration is the movement of an application system to a new environment motivated by a need to serve the business of the enterprise more effectively. Migration helps protect the current investment in data and functionality critical to the business and establishes a path for growth. Migration establishes a basis for effectively harnessing modern IT to satisfy current and future needs. This allows for the enterprise to better position itself within a constantly changing business and technological environment.

Migration can be accomplished in one or more steps. The size and number of steps depend on the amount of change the enterprise's existing systems must undergo and the need to rest and recover along the way.

Re-engineering
Reengineering software involves examining and altering of an existing obsolete system to reconstitute it in a new form without dramatically altering the environment. This process encompasses a combination of sub-processes such as reverse engineering, restructuring, re-documentation, forward engineering, and retargeting.

Siri has expertise in using various mapping tools that can be used to identify the existing system and map it to the new development environment. Siri has a rich process and system experience that help in identifying bottlenecks and suitably mitigating them. The implementation will not only enhance the life of the product, but may also incorporate more radical functional changes.
