Application Modernisation & Refactoring Services

Legacy application architectures and monolithic dependencies create significant friction in software delivery. This prevents organisations from adopting cloud-native agility. Technical debt and restrictive licensing models force engineering teams to focus on maintenance rather than new feature development. Manual refactoring initiatives are often abandoned due to the high risk of regression and the difficulty of mapping complex dependencies. This leaves organisations trapped on expensive platforms with no clear path to modernisation.

Steamhaus industrialises the modernisation journey by combining expert engineering with automation and agentic AI. Our delivery framework leverages vFunction, AWS Transform and AWS Kiro to provide architectural observability and automated code refactoring. By integrating these tools into a structured engineering process we eliminate the undifferentiated heavy lifting of refactoring. This approach reduces modernisation timelines by over 40% and ensures a secure transition to Amazon EKS, AWS Fargate or AWS Lambda.

Key outcomes

This service operates an AI-powered delivery framework to rapid-start your initiative. It unlocks benefits such as:

• Licensing Freedom: Permanently eliminate restrictive licensing costs and commercial middleware fees. We refactor .NET, Java and database workloads to run on open-source standards. This can reduce long-term TCO by up to 45%.

• Deployment Velocity: Break free from monolithic release cycles. We decompose tightly coupled architectures into independent microservices. This enables teams to deploy features safely in days rather than months.

• Day 2 Operability: Transition from fragile legacy code to robust and observable systems. Your modernised applications are built to AWS Well-Architected standards and are ready for integration with modern observability tools.
