    THE STRANGLER PATTERN:
    LEGACY MODERNIZATION

    De-risk your JDE exit. We stabilize the core while you build the future— without the "Big Bang" migration risk.

    THE "BIG BANG" TRAP

    FORENSIC DIAGNOSIS

    Why Migrations Fail

    • ×18-24 month timelines that drain budget and morale
    • ×"Weekend cutovers" that extend into weeks
    • ×Data migration errors discovered post-go-live
    • ×Internal teams consumed by dual-system maintenance

    The Physics: Every "Big Bang" migration creates a binary risk: either it works perfectly, or it catastrophically fails. There is no middle ground.

    The Alternative: The Strangler Pattern replaces binary risk with incremental certainty.

    THE THREE-PHASE PROTOCOL

    STRANGLER FIG METHODOLOGY
    01

    WRAP

    API Facade Layer

    We wrap legacy systems in modern APIs, creating an abstraction layer that allows new applications to interact with old data without touching legacy code.

    Outcome: Zero disruption to production
    02

    STRANGLE

    Incremental Migration

    Route new features through the facade to modern services. The legacy system continues running while traffic gradually shifts to new architecture.

    Outcome: Continuous business operations
    03

    RETIRE

    Controlled Decommission

    Once all traffic flows through modern services, retire the legacy system. No 'Big Bang' cutover. No weekend cutovers. No risk.

    Outcome: Clean architectural state

    THE ALLARI ROLE

    TRANSFORMATION SUPPORT MODEL

    We Hold The Core

    While your internal team and system integrators focus on designing and building the future state, Allari sustains production support for the legacy JDE/SAP environment.

    • 24/7 production stability during transition
    • Incident response that doesn't pull architects off-project
    • OpenBook™ telemetry tracking dual-system health
    W.L. GORE CASE STUDY

    "Allari absorbed our JDE operational noise, recovering 30-40% of our architect capacityto focus on the S/4HANA transformation."
