JINEN DEDHIA BELIEVES THAT MANUFACTURERS MUST INVEST IN APP REFACTORING THUS ALLOWING THEM TO REACH OUT TO EVERYONE.
IT AUTOMATION IN INDIA'S MANUFACTURING sector began nearly two decades ago with companies investing in tools such as ERP, SCM, CRM, sales automation, and distribution management. Some companies implemented shrink-wrapped packages and others relied on home-grown, custom-built systems. With the passage of time, manufacturers are looking at modernising those same enterprise applications, making them ready to address their present-day requirements.
Legacy application modernisation becomes a big challenge in the context of enterprise mobility. Organisations have to ensure that their legacy solutions are suitable for present day needs and also available in the form of mobile apps offering great user experiences.
SOLVING THE MODERNISATION PUZZLE
The early legacy modernisation efforts by Indian manufacturers included disruptive, time-consuming, and expensive methods such as migrating the programming languages, databases and OS, and carrying out reprogramming for new (branded) systems. With the rising popularity of APIs, manufacturers have been employing a less disruptive method of API enablement which improves backend and cloud integrations while making new code-writing redundant.
