Large US Institution - Modernizing out-of-date, mission critical applications without code changes
A large US-based company ($50 -$75B) recently evaluated how Waratek’s virtualization-based Application Security Platform can instantly and seamlessly modernize, harden, and protect a large, mission critical application used by thousands of customers. The target application was running on an “end-of-market” app server with an “out-of-support” Java Runtime Environment (JRE). The app server version was incompatible with the current Java 8 JRE, meaning an upgrade of the application would require a manual rewrite of the application and significantly increase the risk of breaking the application. No cost estimate for rewriting the application was shared with Waratek, but similar projects at other companies have been estimated to take 12-24 months and require millions of dollars to comp
