Architecture Strategy and Assess

We provide the right strategy, approach, technology, guidelines, templates and the white paper necessary to achieve application modernization to help customers advance their applications and infrastructure centered around architecture transformation

Architecture Transformation Framework​

A basic model for our customers' decision-making on architecture, which is necessary to determine the level of application modernization by transforming the architecture.

Application modernization based on architecture transformation presupposes that there are various forms of modernization, from basic modernization to applications that are completely cloud-native.

Legacy Assessment

A service that lets you determine the cost, time, and number of engineers required to achieve your desired level of modernization by checking the level of legacy applications.

We guarantee to provide an accurate assessment by checking the gap between the current status of the system and the system-to-be through automated assessment tools, collaboration among application architects, and customer input on legacy applications.

SW Engineering

SW engineering for application modernization presents an engineering approach aimed at inheriting a majority of the existing software engineering theories while quickly responding to cloud, emerging technology stacks for digital transformation, and rapid shifts in the business environment.

Revamping SW Engineering for Application Modernization

Application modernization comes with changes of all sizes when it comes to software engineering, which is the foundation of application modernization. Although key topics of software engineering are still important in modern applications, newly emerging perspectives are vital elements that are in line with various traits required in modern software.

SW Engineering approach for Agile Transformation

Agility is not a new way of developing software nor a fresh development trend. The majority of leading companies in Korea have already applied agility in multiple internal development projects, and they have long strived to achieve agility.

Regardless, it is still true that agility has not taken root in the Korean market as one of the pillars of basic digital transformation. Agility is not simply achieved by approaching it from the perspective of software development methodology.

The fundamental philosophy and implications of agility mean changes in contract and how we collaborate (e.g. development culture, collaboration with customers and developers, collaboration between the business and IT) to develop software. Metanet Digital believes that for agility to be used as the tool and the means of digital innovation, we must first change the underlying method of concluding a contract between customers and a service provider. Therefore, we are modeling agile contracts and strongly promoting their use

Quality Engineering

From the software methodology perspective, diverse agile approaches (e.g. XP, scrum) are taken alongside the traditional waterfall model. The market is also calling for quality engineering appropriate for the cloud-native age. Metanet Digital supports corporate innovation with our new quality control measures built on our wealth of experience in diverse legacy environments and numerous application modernization projects.

From traditional SW Development Methodology to Future SW Development

Metanet digital takes the agile approach required in modern applications and consults with customers on adaptive software development methods, implementing them according to the characteristics of the company or institution.

We have defined the degree of high-level architecture and design appropriate for the adaptive approach, as well as the cooperative mechanism with customers, allowing us to make proper products with minimum value at the early stage of the agile sprint according to business needs.

We offer coding conventions, development standards, sample codes, and various templates and guidelines as needed in the form of reference models necessary for modern applications.

Testing in Modern Application Development

The delivery pipeline used when building and deploying release candidates of modern applications is based on the DevOps philosophy and engineering techniques that correspond to the DevOps philosophy.

DevOps stress shift-left testing on the delivery pipeline. In short, it is an approach that seeks to mitigate risks by handling minor changes by discovering flaws and problems, or the left side of the delivery pipeline, early on.

To conduct shift-left testing, you need an environment similar to the operation environment in the initial stage of the delivery lifecycle so tests can be performed in exactly the same environment where the application will be run in. We are configuring our test service models so customers can conduct shift-left tests using service virtualization, demo operation data, and by building a similar environment.

Metanet Digital's Ability to Perform Shift-Left Tests

• We provision the verification and operation environment as required by the development/operation team according to their business needs.
• Automated tests
• Virtualization of numerous services and environments
• Timely provision of test data sets as needed
