EWIS has unveiled EWIS AEGIS, an innovative AI-driven platform developed in Sri Lanka aimed at assisting organizations in modernizing their crucial legacy systems with enhanced speed, control, and predictability. The technology behind this platform is proprietary, and a patent application is currently in progress.
Legacy systems play a vital role in sectors like banking, insurance, government, telecommunications, and healthcare. However, updating these systems is often fraught with complexities, high costs, and significant risks, which can result in project delays, budget overruns, and operational disruptions.
To tackle these issues, EWIS AEGIS empowers organizations to analyze, simulate, and validate potential system changes prior to implementation, thereby minimizing uncertainties and enhancing decision-making processes. This approach emphasizes simulation prior to transformation.
EWIS AEGIS stands out by adopting a simulation-first methodology for legacy modernization, a niche area with limited global competition. It allows organizations to update legacy systems without interrupting the essential operations that rely on them. This platform is among the few in the region that supports comprehensive legacy system simulation before any transformation efforts begin.
The platform aims to produce measurable results by mitigating transformation risks through its simulation-first validation process, speeding up modernization timelines through the early identification of issues, and reducing downtime in critical environments. Additionally, it enhances cost predictability by minimizing the necessity for rework and decreasing failure rates, thus facilitating a more efficient and dependable transformation journey.
Sanjeewa Wickramanayake, Chairman of EWIS Group, remarked, “The process of modernizing legacy systems has historically been associated with high risks. With EWIS AEGIS, organizations can transition from uncertainty to control, gaining insights into outcomes ahead of implementation and carrying out transformations with assurance.”
EWIS AEGIS operates by leveraging AI-driven code intelligence to extract and organize legacy system logic, employing dependency mapping to reveal hidden relationships and risks within systems, and utilizing digital twin simulations to mimic systems and validate their behavior prior to any modifications. It also features automated transformation capabilities for a smooth shift to modern architectures, alongside AI-powered testing to ensure accuracy and uphold data integrity throughout the process.
Isuru Dissanayake, Chief Technology Officer of EWIS Group, added, “By integrating AI with Digital Twin simulation, EWIS AEGIS offers a clear and dependable path to modernization. Organizations can validate system behaviors in advance, significantly lowering the risks linked to large-scale transformations.”
Developed by EWIS, the EWIS AEGIS platform is tailored for enterprise use across international markets, supporting organizations as they evolve from legacy infrastructures to contemporary digital ecosystems.
