Navigating Legacy Systems at Infineon: Strategies for Success

As technology advances, legacy systems can become a significant obstacle to progress. At Infineon, we have developed a range of approaches to address this challenge. In this talk, we will outline four general strategies for dealing with legacy systems: hardware conversion, software conversion, virtualization, and replacement. Each approach has its unique benefits and drawbacks, and we will delve into the specifics of each through real-world examples from our own experiences.

From upgrading outdated hardware to rewriting software code, we will explore the pros and cons of each method. We will also discuss the importance of virtualization in extending the life of legacy systems and the role of replacement in introducing new technologies. Through case studies and lessons learned, we will provide insights into the challenges and opportunities that come with modernizing legacy systems. By sharing our experiences, we aim to provide a comprehensive understanding of the strategies available to tackle legacy systems and empower organizations to make informed decisions about their own legacy system modernization efforts.
