Organizations have varying circumstances, objectives, and prerequisites when contemplating a hyper-scale cloud solution transformation to a platform such as Azure. Modernizing Legacy Applications to Microsoft Azure uncovers potential scenarios and provides choices, methodologies, techniques, and prospective possibilities for transitioning from legacy applications to the Microsoft Azure environment.

You'll start by understanding the legacy systems and the main concerns regarding migration. Then, you'll investigate why distributed architectures are compelling and the various components of the Azure platform needed during migration. After that, you'll explore the approaches to modernizing legacy applications and the Rs of modernizing (i.e., rehost, refactor, rearchitect, and retire). You'll also learn about integration approaches and potential pitfalls.

By the end of this book, you'll be well equipped to modernize your legacy workloads while being aware of pitfalls and best practices.

• Understand your current legacy estate's options before moving to Azure
• Move to a cloud environment from your legacy applications
• Build equivalent or superior application SLAs in Azure
• Use interoperability to enable a phased approach
• Integrate DevOps to help accelerate modernization

This book is for both decision makers and implementers including CIOs, CTOs, data and application architects, developers (both legacy and cloud), and business strategists. Prior knowledge of legacy languages and modern cloud-based languages like C#/.NET and Java would be helpful.
