In a world interwoven economically, increasing dependence on critical software applications either in transaction processing (banking, Government services etc) or manufacturing automation (automobiles, pharmaceuticals, chemicals) has accentuated the economic impact aging software can have. Software with increased usage operating in unforeseen conditions at throughput much higher then initial expectations can degrade fast leading to higher altered form and dramatic drop in performance indicators. In the current paper we have tried to analyse the issues governing software maintenance and how preventive maintenance which is still considered a very evolving field in the context of software engineering can help the software product age usefully. We have also attempted to address the above in the essence of how it is done for hardware preventive maintenance which is a better understood and commercially accepted concept. Finally we suggest model for the preventive maintenance integrated within software life cycle.
