Modernization

Modernization

Source

Eden's Modernization category changes infrastructure underneath an application without requiring a blind cutover or an immediate rewrite.

Live Migrations plans and operates movement, capture, replay, validation, cutover, and recovery. Gateway supplies source and target endpoints, interlays, mirroring, comparison, and traffic control.

Migration lifecycle

  1. Connect and inventory the source and target.
  2. Define schema, object, field, and request mappings when systems differ.
  3. Move historical data.
  4. Capture and replay live writes.
  5. Mirror representative traffic and compare outcomes.
  6. Run validation and readiness checks.
  7. Approve and execute cutover.
  8. Monitor the new authoritative system and retain rollback controls.

See Live Migrations Overview for the implementation model, Endpoint Coverage for supported source and target systems, and the Redis Migration Walkthrough for an end-to-end example.

Recovery

Modernization includes snapshots, backups, restore readiness, cutover rollback, and post-migration evidence. Keep the source available until validation, business approval, and the rollback window are complete.
