Migration Services - Three Stages

The Migration Services are divided into three distinct stages. You may wish to go through each step at a time, or select the service components that best serve your organisation and your PHP environment.

Migration Assessment

Migration Assessment involves

• assessing your application for early identification of code which may present problems in migrating;
• identifying and addressing current issues such as breakage of normal functions during migration;
• taking advantage of OOS features;
• integrating new technologies; and
• the steps necessary for you to be able to quickly take advantage of the latest features in PHP through your newly production-ready PHP application.

At the end, you will receive a detailed report identifying issues and making recommendations for resolving them, as well as a recommended project plan with next steps.

Migration Enablement

During Migration Enablement, an experienced Ibuildings consultant will conduct on-site mentoring of your developers as well as training/hands-on practice in a small, individualised setting. The result will be a shorter learning curve for your developers, with a faster time to implementation for additional features in your PHP applications.

Migration Implementation

Migration Implementation builds on the recommendations made on the Assessment stage. It results in the implementation of the recommendations leaving you with a production-ready PHP application. At the end, you will have migrated your application to the latest version of PHP, allowing you to take advantage of new features, with decreased maintenance complexity and increased stability of the application. In addition, you will have documentation of all the changes made to your application.
