Application Modernisation Services
Accelerate innovation, improve scalability, reliability, and cost-efficiency, and achieve faster development cycles with strategic application modernisation and migration to the Microsoft Azure Cloud.
Realise the Promise of the Cloud.
Modernise Your Applications.
Why Modernise?
Cloud technologies have become central to enterprise digital transformation, making application modernisation essential to fully realise cloud-driven advantages such as enhanced performance, scalable infrastructure, robust availability, and advanced security. Leveraging cloud transformation positions your organisation to harness innovative capabilities—including AI, machine learning, and IoT—previously inaccessible within legacy infrastructures.
Moreover, enterprises consistently realise measurable cost efficiencies by transitioning applications to containerised, microservices-driven architectures, such as Docker, on platforms like Azure. Complementing modernisation with DevOps-aligned continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD) processes ensures accelerated, reliable updates, satisfying customer expectations and driving sustained competitive advantage.

Featured Case Study
Case Study: Modernising Legacy .NET Applications for the Cloud
Business Challenge
Total required the modernisation of multiple legacy Microsoft .NET custom-developed applications to a modern, scalable cloud platform. The goal was to improve system performance, enable better maintainability, and align with their cloud-first strategy, while preserving the integrity of core business functions.
DVT Solution
As a trusted Microsoft Azure Cloud Platform partner, DVT successfully migrated all four key systems—Dealer Communication, Total Card, Dealer Classification, and Total SOC—to the Microsoft Azure environment. Each application was replatformed to support improved scalability, availability, and cloud-native integration, laying the groundwork for future innovation and operational efficiency.

Application Modernisation Strategy
What we assess during the technical evaluation:
To build a complete picture of your modernisation readiness, we evaluate:
Core application functionality and key concerns
Data integrity, schema quality, and database architecture
Existing software development methodologies and team practices
Codebase structure, reuse patterns, and architectural alignment
Hosting environment configuration and networking topology
Tooling
DVT applies advanced static analysis tools to assess your application’s architecture, performance lifecycle, scalability, and maintainability. Our analysis identifies bottlenecks, technical debt, and areas for optimisation.
The evaluation framework also assesses software complexity, code quality, technical depth, and readiness for cloud-native transformation.
Security
Security is embedded in every phase of the assessment. Our review includes:
- Benchmarking against OWASP Top 10 for .NET web applications
- Evaluation of authentication, authorisation, and credential management processes
- Identification and reporting of vulnerabilities in third-party packages and dependencies
Outcome
- A detailed ‘as-is’ technical assessment report tailored to your environment
- Executive-level presentation of findings and collaborative recommendation session
- Alignment of business requirements to a modern, cloud-ready technical roadmap
