Many organizations rely on mission-critical legacy systems that, while stable, lack modern capabilities and hinder digital transformation efforts.
These established systems often hold vast amounts of valuable historical data and power core business processes. However, they can be difficult to modify, integrate with newer technologies, and lack the flexibility needed for today's AI-driven world. Replacing them entirely is often prohibitively expensive, risky, and time-consuming.
Vis Ed specializes in bridging this gap. We help you leverage the power of modern AI by integrating it intelligently with your existing legacy infrastructure. This allows you to enhance functionality, extract deeper insights from your data, and automate processes without abandoning your significant investments.
We prioritize minimizing disruption and maximizing the value of your existing assets.
Our integration methods focus on connecting *to* your legacy systems rather than modifying their core code whenever possible. This reduces risk, shortens project timelines, and avoids interrupting critical business operations.
You've invested significantly in your legacy systems. Our goal is to extend their lifespan and enhance their value by layering modern AI capabilities on top, rather than forcing costly replacements.
Unlock capabilities previously impossible with your legacy systems, such as predictive analytics based on historical data, intelligent automation of manual processes tied to the system, or natural language interfaces.
Ensure data can move securely between your legacy systems and modern AI tools. This allows AI to learn from legacy data and enables AI-driven insights or actions to be reflected back in the legacy environment.
We implement robust security measures at the integration points, including secure protocols (HTTPS, SFTP), authentication/authorization layers, encryption of data in transit and at rest, and network segmentation to protect your legacy systems.
Our phased approach, focus on non-invasive techniques, and thorough testing in staging environments are designed to minimize downtime and impact on your core business operations during integration.
We utilize data transformation and mapping tools within middleware or integration platforms to handle differences in data formats, structures, and semantics between legacy and modern systems.
We carefully design integrations to avoid overloading legacy systems, often using asynchronous patterns, caching, and optimized data extraction methods to maintain performance.
Our team has experience reverse-engineering interfaces and data structures when documentation is missing, using specialized tools and discovery techniques to map out integration points.
The integration layer is built using modern, scalable technologies, ensuring it can handle growing data volumes and increased interaction frequency as AI usage expands.
We employ various techniques depending on your specific legacy system, goals, and constraints.
The best approach depends on factors like the legacy system's technology, available interfaces, data volume, real-time requirements, and your budget. We work with you to determine the most effective and least intrusive integration strategy.
