Challenge
The client product was based on the outdated SOAP API and legacy Apache products, such as the Axis2 framework and the TomEE 7 application server. TomEE 7 stopped receiving security updates in 2021, so the client updated it to the next version to get ISO 27001 certification. However, this change led to other ones, as TomEE 8 wasn’t compatible with the Axis2 framework they used.

Solution
After evaluating the project, we offered the client two legacy system modernization strategies to choose from:
- Renovating the existing software to the most up-to-date solution.
- Going step by step by upgrading the versions of existing software and, eventually, coming to Spring.

Results
Along with upgrading legacy systems, we trained employees on the client side to ensure knowledge transfer so that they could feel confident working with CXF and TomEE 8.
We’ve carried out legacy system modernization for the client considering upcoming ISO27001 certification and the switch to Spring in the future.
The client was successfully certified and received ISO 27001:2013 in November 2022.
