Our enterprise partners faced significant security risks and performance bottlenecks due to an aging Java infrastructure. This technical debt hindered cloud adoption and modern development, specifically:
End-of-life JDK 8 poses critical security and compliance risks.
JVM inefficiencies in legacy Java hinder application scalability.
Limited compatibility with modern cloud platforms and build systems.
Outdated libraries and deprecated APIs increase maintenance overhead.
Inefficient garbage collection leads to unpredictable runtime latency.
High technical debt slows down development and deployment cycles.
Solution Provided
Icanio Technologies executed a Multi-Stage Java Modernization Strategy migrating the DCM application to JDK 17/21 while refactoring the core for modern standards. The solutions include:
Seamless migration from JDK 8 to modern JDK 21.
Refactored codebase to remove deprecated APIs and libraries.
Updated build environments for Maven, Gradle, and J-Unit.
Integrated Playwright and Spring Boot for automated stability testing.
Optimized JVM tuning to leverage advanced garbage collection features.
Modernized deployment pipelines for improved CI/CD throughput and security.
