This reversal of traditional logic builds architectures that truly serve business objectives, rather than infrastructures to which needs are later adapted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The use of collaborative workshops illustrates this commitment to creating <strong>a common language between business teams, developers, and infrastructure teams<\/strong>.

Technical upgrades performed in a vacuum often fail to secure the necessary funding or organisational buy-in. Leaders must frame modernisation around four primary pillars: innovation, agility, reliability, and cost optimisation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-accelerate-innovation-from-idea-to-market-in-record-time\">Accelerate Innovation: From Idea to Market in Record Time<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In a legacy environment, the challenge is rarely a lack of good ideas; it is a &#8220;speed to market&#8221; problem. The <strong>friction involved in provisioning infrastructure<\/strong>, configuring security, and navigating manual deployment pipelines means that even simple prototypes can take months to reach users. To gain a competitive edge, businesses need to rapidly prototype and test applications tied to specific business cases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">AWS enablers enable teams to utilise advanced technology without requiring expertise in infrastructure. For example, the introduction of the Amazon Nova model family, including Nova 2 Sonic for conversational AI and Nova 2 Lite for cost-effective reasoning, provides developers with frontier-level AI capabilities that can be integrated <a href=\"https:\/\/aws.amazon.com\/fr\/blogs\/aws\/top-announcements-of-aws-reinvent-2025\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">via simple API calls<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Managed services like Amazon SageMaker AI with serverless MLflow allow data science teams to experiment with zero-infrastructure setup, cutting prototyping time from weeks to minutes. By offloading the &#8220;undifferentiated heavy lifting&#8221; of infrastructure to AWS, organisations can focus their most talented resources on building features that differentiate the business in the eyes of the customer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-become-more-agile-scaling-amp-evolving-with-business-needs\">Become More Agile: Scaling &amp; Evolving with Business Needs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Business agility is the ability to scale resources for peak demand,such as a product launch or a seasonal spike,and to evolve systems so that small changes can be made safely and quickly. In a legacy monolith, scaling is binary and expensive; you must scale the entire application, even if only one component is experiencing <a href=\"https:\/\/aws.amazon.com\/fr\/blogs\/enterprise-strategy\/6-strategies-for-migrating-applications-to-the-cloud\/\">high load<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">AWS enables agility through elasticity and the principle of loose coupling. Services like Amazon SQS and SNS enable microservices to communicate asynchronously, meaning that a failure or change in one service does not necessitate a system-wide outage or redeployment. This architectural style, combined with Auto Scaling Groups, ensures that the system grows and shrinks automatically based on real-time demand. Furthermore, the rise of agentic AI, such as the Kuro Autonomous Agent, enables development teams to scale their output by delegating routine tasks, like bug fixing and backlog management, to autonomous &#8220;AI teammates&#8221; that <strong>maintain <a href=\"https:\/\/builder.aws.com\/content\/36LFJA6RDmb9BQUfv0KTF9Wkhzo\/unlocking-the-future-key-announcements-from-the-aws-reinvent-2025-keynote-by-ceo-matt-garman\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">context across workflows<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Customer usecase: <a href=\"https:\/\/devoteam.info\/en-pt\/success-story\/mercado-migrated-to-aws-and-improved-scalability-and-reliability\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Discover how Mercado migrated to AWS and improved scalability and reliability<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-increase-quality-reliability-amp-security-the-foundation-of-trust\">Increase Quality, Reliability &amp; Security: The Foundation of Trust<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Downtime is more than just lost revenue; it is an erosion of customer trust that can take years to rebuild. Modernisation shifts the operational burden of maintaining high availability to AWS. <a href=\"https:\/\/devoteam.info\/en-pt\/topics\/cloud-managed-services\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Managed services<\/strong><\/a> like Amazon RDS and Amazon Aurora provide automated patching, backups, and high availability across multiple Availability Zones (AZs) by default.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The security landscape is also transformed through modernisation. Traditional security models often rely on a &#8220;perimeter&#8221; approach that is easily bypassed once an attacker gains entry. Modernised applications on AWS use the &#8220;Security-by-Design&#8221; approach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The new AWS Security Agent, for instance, proactively reviews design documents and scans code for vulnerabilities during the development process, identifying risks before they ever reach production. By utilising services like Amazon GuardDuty for extended threat detection across both EC2 and ECS (containers), organisations can achieve a unified security posture that is resilient to complex, multi-stage attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-reduce-amp-optimise-costs-from-capex-to-opex-precision\">Reduce &amp; Optimise Costs: From CapEx to OpEx Precision<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-style-column-box-shadow has-gray-light-background-color has-background has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-a9070b44 wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"border-radius:5px;padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--large);padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--large);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--large);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--large)\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized wp-duotone-red-devoteam\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" src=\"https:\/\/devoteam.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/citation-a-droite.svg\" alt=\"Quote\" class=\"wp-image-208\" style=\"width:28px;height:auto\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Modernisation requires a strategic trade-off based on an economic equation: is it better to deconstruct and rebuild the existing system, or build new modules in parallel before switching over?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-gray-color has-alpha-channel-opacity has-gray-background-color has-background is-style-separator-dotted is-style-default\" style=\"margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--medium);margin-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--medium)\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-nowrap is-layout-flex wp-container-core-group-is-layout-fe6f0742 wp-block-group-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-vertical is-layout-flex wp-container-core-group-is-layout-0f66ae2b wp-block-group-is-layout-flex\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:500\">Nicolas Lu<br>AWS Solution Architect at Devoteam<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Legacy IT procurement is characterised by &#8220;CapEx&#8221;, where organisations overprovision expensive hardware to handle hypothetical peak loads.

The path is often non-linear, beginning with stabilisation and moving toward full cloud-native optimisation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-replatforming-amp-refactoring-applications\">Replatforming &amp; Refactoring Applications<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The technical deep dive begins with <a href=\"https:\/\/docs.aws.amazon.com\/prescriptive-guidance\/latest\/large-migration-guide\/migration-strategies.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>the &#8220;7 Rs&#8221; of migration<\/strong>,<\/a> with Replatforming and Refactoring being the primary vehicles for true modernisation. Replatforming, often referred to as &#8220;lift-and-tinker,&#8221; involves making minimal changes to achieve a tangible benefit, such as migrating an on-premises PostgreSQL database to Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL to eliminate database administration overhead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Refactoring, or &#8220;re-architecting,&#8221; is a more profound transformation. It involves breaking a large, monolithic application into<strong> smaller, independent microservices<\/strong>. This is driven by a strong business demand to scale or to accelerate the release of new features. A link between business and technology is evident here: you cannot achieve the agility or innovation required for modern digital business with a monolith. Refactoring is the foundational work required to enable small, autonomous teams to deploy features independently and rapidly without waiting for a massive, coordinated release cycle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-modernising-with-containers-serverless-amp-devops\">Modernising with Containers, Serverless &amp; DevOps<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If refactoring is the goal, containers and serverless are the engines. Containerisation (via EKS or ECS) allows applications to run consistently across any environment, making it the perfect home for refactored microservices. Serverless (via Lambda or Fargate) represents the next evolution, where there are no servers to manage, and developers focus purely on code.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The cultural and automation &#8220;glue&#8221; for this engine is DevOps. Creating CI\/CD (Continuous Integration\/Continuous Deployment) pipelines using AWS CodePipeline and CodeBuild allows for the automated testing and deployment of code. The business-tech link is clear: serverless enables cost reduction by only running when needed, while a mature DevOps pipeline is the literal engine of innovation, allowing code to be deployed multiple times per day rather than once per quarter. New 2025 announcements, such as <a href=\"https:\/\/aws.amazon.com\/fr\/blogs\/aws\/introducing-aws-lambda-managed-instances-serverless-simplicity-with-ec2-flexibility\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>AWS Lambda Managed Instances<\/strong><\/a>, allow organisations to combine the simplicity of Lambda with the flexibility and pricing models of EC2, providing a bridge for steady-state workloads that still require high performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-api-management-amp-integration\">API Management &amp; Integration<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As monoliths are broken into microservices, the complexity of communication between these services increases. <strong>Amazon API Gateway acts as the secure &#8220;front door&#8221;<\/strong>, handling authentication, throttling, and routing for dozens or even hundreds of internal services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">API Gateway is what makes a loosely coupled system manageable, providing a single point of entry for external and internal consumers. Beyond management, APIs enable new business models by allowing organisations to securely expose their services as products to partners or customers. This &#8220;API-first&#8221; approach is a primary driver of innovation, enabling third-party developers to build upon the enterprise&#8217;s core capabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Technology<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Role in Modernisation<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Key AWS Service<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Containers<\/strong><\/td><td>Portable microservice execution<\/td><td>Amazon EKS&nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Serverless<\/strong><\/td><td>Event-driven, no-ops compute<\/td><td>AWS Lambda&nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>DevOps<\/strong><\/td><td>Automated delivery pipeline<\/td><td>AWS CodePipeline&nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>API Mgmt<\/strong><\/td><td>Secure service integration<\/td><td>Amazon API Gateway&nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-gray-light-background-color has-background has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-gray-light-background-color has-background\" id=\"h-aws-transform-new-announcements-from-re-invent-2025\">AWS Transform: New Announcements from re:Invent 2025<br><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Re:Invent 2025 marked a major milestone for <a href=\"https:\/\/aws.amazon.com\/about-aws\/whats-new\/2025\/12\/transform-custom-organization-wide-modernization\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>AWS Transform<\/strong><\/a>, introducing capabilities that significantly lower the barrier to large-scale modernisation.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>AWS Transform enables<\/strong> organisations to define their own organisation-specific modernisation rules using natural language and code samples. This allows the AI agent to learn and apply a company\u2019s unique coding standards and architectural patterns across hundreds of repositories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Additionally, the launch of the <strong>Full-Stack Windows Modernisation Agent<\/strong> now automates the coordinated transformation of .NET applications and SQL Server databases into Linux-compatible Blazor and Aurora PostgreSQL, potentially reducing operating costs by up to 70%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">AWS also introduced specialised agents for <strong>DevOps<\/strong> and <strong>Security<\/strong>, which autonomously investigate incidents and review design documents to prevent vulnerabilities, effectively embedding expert-level guidance into every stage of the software development lifecycle<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-measuring-amp-sustaining-your-success\">Measuring &amp; Sustaining Your Success<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Modernisation is not a one-time event but a continuous process. To sustain investment and prove value to stakeholders, organisations must move from basic monitoring to deep observability and use standardised performance metrics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-from-monitoring-to-observability\">From Monitoring to Observability<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Standard monitoring tools answer questions like &#8220;Is the server up?&#8221; or &#8220;Is CPU usage at 90%?&#8221; While necessary, these metrics are insufficient for modern, distributed systems. Observability, enabled by AWS X-Ray and Amazon CloudWatch Logs, answers deeper questions like &#8220;Why is the &#8216;add-to-cart&#8217; button slow for users in a specific region?&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This shift to observability is <strong>the technical proof of quality and reliability<\/strong>. By tracing requests across multiple microservices, teams can find the root cause of issues before they impact a large number of customers. The 2025 introduction of AI-powered &#8220;5 Whys&#8221; analysis in CloudWatch Investigations automates this process, drawing on decades of Amazon\u2019s internal operational discipline to guide DevOps teams through complex troubleshooting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-delivery-performance-monitoring\">Delivery Performance Monitoring<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To measure the success of a modernisation initiative, the C-suite should look at DORA (DevOps Research and Assessment) metrics. These metrics measure the effectiveness of the development process itself:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Deployment Frequency:<\/strong> How often the organisation successfully releases to production.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Lead Time for Changes:<\/strong> How long it takes for a code commit to reach production.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Change Failure Rate:<\/strong> What percentage of deployments cause an issue?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Time to Restore Service:<\/strong> How fast the organisation can recover from a failure.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These metrics are the direct report card for Agility (Deployment Frequency) and Innovation (Lead Time), balanced with Reliability (Change Failure Rate, Time to Restore). A high-performing modernised organisation is one that can deploy code multiple times a day with a low failure rate and a rapid recovery time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-conclusion\">Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-style-column-box-shadow has-gray-light-background-color has-background has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-a9070b44 wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"border-radius:5px;padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--large);padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--large);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--large);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--large)\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized wp-duotone-red-devoteam\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" src=\"https:\/\/devoteam.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/citation-a-droite.svg\" alt=\"Quote\" class=\"wp-image-208\" style=\"width:28px;height:auto\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Modernisation isn&#8217;t just a technical matter. It primarily aims to make the application more elastic, agile, and aligned with modern architectures. Before getting started, it&#8217;s essential to ask the right questions: why modernise, what is our level of understanding of the existing system, and how do we proceed in a controlled manner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-gray-color has-alpha-channel-opacity has-gray-background-color has-background is-style-separator-dotted is-style-default\" style=\"margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--medium);margin-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--medium)\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-nowrap is-layout-flex wp-container-core-group-is-layout-fe6f0742 wp-block-group-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-vertical is-layout-flex wp-container-core-group-is-layout-0f66ae2b wp-block-group-is-layout-flex\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:500\">Nicolas Lu<br>AWS Solution Architect at Devoteam<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Modernisation on AWS is<strong> a new operating model designed for the digital age<\/strong>.
