MAKE Technologies, the leading provider of semantic-based application modernization technology, and GlobalLogic, the industry Leader in Software R&D Services, have joined forces to create NexGen: Software Product Modernization (NexGen: SPM).

NexGen: SPM combines MAKE’s Transformational Legacy Modernization software products and methodology with GlobalLogic’s Velocity™ Agile development platform to create an offering that is specifically honed to the needs of software product companies. NexGen: SPM makes it possible to cost-effectively re-architect software products so that they fully leverage Web 2.0 and SOA standards.  The end product is a modern software application written in Java or .NET that contains no proprietary components and that fully embraces modern coding styles and architectures. As part of this program, GlobalLogic is offering a small rapid Proof-of-Concept project (PoC) to demonstrate the capabilities of NexGen: SPM.

“We have always been about accelerating software products to market,” says Peter Harrison, CEO, GlobalLogic. “Combining MAKE’s state-of-the-art platform for accelerating system modernization with GlobalLogic’s considerable expertise in next generation software product development is a dynamite combination. Together, we’ve combined some of the world’s best software engineers with breakthrough automation to dramatically accelerate software modernization.”

“We are delighted by this partnership,” says Bill Bergen, president and CEO, MAKE Technologies. “MAKE’s strength in application modernization, combined with GlobalLogic’s innovation skills and implementation muscle, will take our customers from legacy systems right to the cutting edge – or as close as they want to go.”
