Most organizations have at least one legacy application no longer being updated with live data – either because it has already been replaced by new software or is simply no longer needed.

The majority of legacy applications cannot be switched off because they still contain valuable business data which might be required for operational reasons, such as answering customer queries. Or it might be needed for compliance – perhaps to meet a statutory obligation to retain customer data for a number of years.
