This white paper explains why legacy, on-prem applications have become a business liability and why modernization is needed to improve integration, reduce costly maintenance, address security and compliance risks, and fix poor user experience. It describes how Azure can speed modernization using AI, including Copilot-assisted coding, automation for transformation planning and testing, and services such as Azure Machine Learning, Azure OpenAI, API Management, DevOps, AKS, App Service, Cosmos DB, Azure SQL hyperscale, Monitor, and Application Insights. It outlines modernization paths from rehost and refactor to rearchitect, rebuild, and replace, and argues Azure enables scalable, secure modernization with continuous monitoring and improved agility.
