Legacy software

Legacy software refers to older, existing software applications or systems that continue to be used within an organization or by users despite their age. Legacy software may not be actively maintained or updated to modern standards, but it still serves a valuable purpose.

Maintaining and modernizing legacy software can be challenging due to outdated technologies, potential security vulnerabilities, and a lack of documentation. Organizations often grapple with decisions about whether to continue using legacy software, migrate to newer solutions, or invest in modernization efforts to extend the life and functionality of these systems.

For example, a financial institution might still rely on legacy software for its core banking operations, even as it gradually migrates to newer systems to enhance security and support modern features.
