Infosys Modernization Radar 2022: Half of Enterprise Legacy Applications to be


Modernized in the Next Two Years

Bengaluru, India – May 5, 2022: The race to modernize continues, and companies already see the finish
line, according to new research from the Infosys Knowledge Institute, the thought leadership and research
arm of Infosys (NSE, BSE, NYSE: INFY). The study reveals that 50 percent of the global legacy application
landscape is expected to modernize in the next two years, with 70-90 percent modernizing in the next five
years.

Infosys Modernization Radar 2022 found that application modernization leads to increased benefits from
cloud, enterprise data, and exponential technologies like analytics, APIs, AI and microservices.
Modernization also improves scalability and creates a digital backbone. The research underscores that
modernization reduces operational expenditures, increases revenues, and provides a better customer
experience.

The research identified four swift and effective modernization approaches:

1. The right modernization strategy: Holistic, automated, and aligned


Our research found that 88 percent of systems are legacy; of those, 45 percent are legacy mainframe.
More than half (52 percent) are core to the business, and the rest are supporting applications – all need to
avoid the risk of disruption. Many of the legacy systems lack adequate support, making them vulnerable
and presenting security risks. Companies should adopt a holistic view of the enterprise estate, increase
automation, and align business and IT on modernization decisions.

2. Multiple talent pools reduce risk


Fifty-one percent of respondents cited the lack of skills and talent as a bigger pain point than the risk of
disruption (27 percent) and modernization costs (24 percent). Companies need to upskill their employee
base and acquire niche skills such as reengineering, database modernization, and rules externalization.
The research recommends companies invest in their workforce, build communities of practice for
modernization, and tap the gig economy to harness talent as a modernization tool.

3. Modernization investment should be more strategic than discretionary


Although companies on average invest a full 65 percent of discretionary budget on modernization projects,
large companies tend to budget more strategically for modernization. These firms develop a clear
modernization roadmap and are more likely to go all-in on big modernization projects. Modernization is now
on the executive agenda, and it should become a crucial component of enterprise technology planning.

4. Phased approach and coexistent methodologies are less disruptive than a big-bang approach
A systematic phased and coexistent approaches to modernization cause the fewest disruptions. When
legacy and modernized applications coexist with two-way data syncing, this coexistence limits end-user
disruptions. According to the research, 51 percent of respondents who extensively use a big-bang approach
experience more frequent and severe disruption. However, severe disruption levels and frequency for a
phased and coexistent methods were far lower.

Ravi Kumar S, President, Infosys, said, “Enterprises must accelerate their modernization journey and it
is imperative that they act now. As the Infosys Modernization Radar 2022 shows, a wait-and-see
approach is just not tenable. Modernization plays a pivotal role in equipping businesses to deliver
strategically and seamlessly in a customer-centric era. Our Infosys Modernization Suite, part of Infosys
Cobalt, helps enterprises modernize their legacy systems and become future-ready.”
