Abstract

Migration of legacy systems to service-oriented environments has been achieved within a number of domains, including banking, insurance, manufacturing, and development tools, showing that the promise is beginning to be fulfilled. While migration to Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) environments can have significant value, any specific migration requires a concrete analysis of the feasibility, risk and cost involved. The Service Migration and Reuse Technique (SMART) is a family of processes to help organizations in making initial decisions about the feasibility of exposing legacy systems as services within a SOA environment. This paper summarizes the SMART-MP (SMART --- Migration Planning) process which provides a plan for the migration of selected components to services and identifies the scope for a pilot effort. It presents an application of SMART-MP and also outlines emerging new SMART family members that have resulted from experiences in applying SMART-MP.
