Java Application Server Migration

For a top Insurance Provider Company in North America

Overview

The enterprise platform was hosted on outdated application servers with limited automation and operational visibility. To improve performance, security, and deployment efficiency, a comprehensive modernization of the runtime infrastructure and DevOps processes was executed.

Challenges

Legacy Web Servers

Applications running on legacy WebLogic 8/12 and Tomcat 8.x servers.

Manual Process

Manual build and deployment processes leading to inconsistencies and delays.

Security Challenges

Security vulnerabilities at the server and configuration levels.

Business Impact

Need to support multiple enterprise applications and client environments.

Approach

We performed a detailed impact analysis of the entire application landscape.

Upgraded application servers:
- WebLogic 8/12 to WebLogic 14
- Tomcat 8.x to Tomcat 9.x
Standardized server configurations across environments.
Implemented CI/CD pipelines for automated build, test, and deployment.
Performed final code retrofits prior to IT, UAT, and production rollouts.
Environment-level regression and smoke testing.
Security hardening and vulnerability validation.
Deployment verification across multiple applications and clients.

Outcome

Enhanced Security

Zero critical and high-severity vulnerabilities post-modernization.

Quick Turnaround Time

Faster, more reliable deployments through CI/CD automation.

Superior Stability

Improved platform stability, scalability, and operational efficiency.
