Ontegra Legacy Modernization:

The Challenge
The Burden of Outdated Systems
Exorbitant Costs
High licensing fees tied to Adobe’s enterprise model, draining the budget.
Technical Debt
Poorly maintained and outdated code, rigid architecture, and lack of documentation slowed progress.
Performance Issues
Slow response times and inability to handle high workloads.
Security Vulnerabilities
Deprecated libraries and unsupported frameworks exposed the system to risks.
Talent Shortage
Difficulty finding developers skilled in niche, outdated technology.
Integration Barriers
Poor compatibility with modern APIs, microservices, and cloud-native tools.
The challenges faced by the client culminated in significant financial strain as high operational costs drained resources that could have been allocated to innovation. Compounding this, the existing infrastructure proved incapable of scaling to meet the demands of rapid business growth, leading to frequent system outages that frustrated users, disrupted operations, and directly impacted revenue. Over time, the organization found itself trapped in a cycle of maintaining an increasingly outdated platform, stifling its ability to pursue new opportunities and leaving innovation stagnant.
The Solution
A Phased, Risk-Free Software Modernization
We designed a comprehensive modernization strategy to replace ColdFusion with a modern, scalable ecosystem while ensuring zero downtime and long-term cost efficiency.
Cost Efficiency
Replaced ColdFusion’s licensing model with open-source frameworks (e.g. Java, React) and cloud-native tools.
Zero Downtime
Ran legacy and modern systems in parallel to ensure uninterrupted operations.

Cloud Migration
Moved the new solution to the cloud for greater availability, scalability, and reliability.
Modular Approach
Broke the monolith into independent modules (e.g. user authentication, payment processing, reporting).

Incremental Deployment
Released modules as they were completed, allowing early validation and feedback.
Fallback Safeguards
Implemented rollback plans for each phase to mitigate risks.

Migration Process
Audit & Planning
Identified cost-heavy processes tied to ColdFusion licensing.Mapped dependencies to prioritize modules for maximum impact. Conducted a full audit of ColdFusion code to pinpoint pain points.
Tech Stack Overhaul
Replaced ColdFusion with a modern stack based on open-source frameworks. Introduced containerization (Docker/Kubernetes) for scalability.
Parallel Development
Built new modules alongside the legacy system, ensuring seamless integration via APIs.
Phased Rollout
Deployed modules incrementally, training users and gathering feedback. Maintained data consistency with real-time synchronization between systems.
Full Deployment
Retired ColdFusion entirely, eliminating licensing costs and technical debt.
How it Works
Data Migration
Migrated historical data to the new system with zero loss or corruption.
User Training
Conducted workshops to familiarize users with the modern interface and workflows.
Continuous Monitoring
Used real-time analytics to track system performance and user adoption.
Post-Launch Support
Our Design System
The color palette uses a bold red (#BA1C0C) to convey energy, urgency, and confidence—ideal for making a strong brand impression. Paired with classic black (#000000) and clean white (#FFFFFF), it creates a striking contrast that enhances readability and focus. The SF Pro Display font brings a modern, sleek aesthetic, combining clarity with sophistication for a professional and engaging visual identity.
