Modernizing Legacy Database Systems
A financial services organization relied on aging database infrastructure to support critical business operations. Over time, performance degradation, data integrity concerns, and technical debt created operational risk. A targeted effort was made to stabilize, streamline, and future-proof these legacy systems.
Improving performance, reliability, and maintainability of legacy SQL databases.

The Challenge

- Outdated stored procedures and undocumented logic
- High maintenance overhead and fragile dependencies
- Inability to scale or adapt to new requirements

The Solution
- Schema refactoring and normalization
- Optimized indexing and query performance tuning
- Updated and simplified stored procedures
- Clear documentation of business logic and data flows

The Results
- 40–60% improvement in response times
- Greater system reliability and fewer outages
- Reduced support and maintenance costs
- Improved confidence in data quality
