Application Lifecycle

Application Lifecycle

What is Application Lifecycle and why does it matter? Application lifecycle refers to the process of developing, deploying, and managing software applications from inception to retirement. This includes planning, design, testing, deployment, maintenance, and eventual decommissioning of applications. Why does it matter? Well, an efficient Application Lifecycle is crucial for ensuring that software applications meet the needs of users, comply with regulatory requirements, and deliver value to the business.

A real-world scenario: Transforming Application Lifecycle for success. Imagine for a second your in a scenario where a large enterprise, lets call it Acme Corporation, is struggling with managing a multitude of legacy applications that are no longer adding value to their operations. These applications are consuming valuable data center resources, creating data governance and compliance risks, and ultimately costing the company a significant amount of money.

How Solix saves money and time on Application Lifecycle. This is where Solix comes in. With Solixs innovative solutions for application retirement and decommissioning, Acme Corporation can rationalize their application portfolio and reduce infrastructure costs. By transitioning away from complex, on-prem legacy application management to modern, SaaS-based alternatives, Acme Corporation can save time and money while improving overall efficiency.

Cost savings from legacy application decommissioning can be as easy as walking through the data center and picking up one-hundred-dollar bills. A study done by the Compliance, Governance, and Oversight Council showed that the average annual cost savings for decommissioning inactive applications were $40,000 and that for larger, enterprise-class applications, the annual savings could exceed $120,000.

Reduce infrastructure costs with application decommissioning:
