THE CHALLENGE

LEGACY TAX SOFTWARE

PWC was using highly specialized software that acted as a tax configurator with the ability to compare alternative tax plans. However, the performance of the system left much to be desired in terms of speed, security, transparency, scalability and further development. In close cooperation with the system’s creators and an international team of programmers, we were to perform appropriate upgrades and migrate key functions to newer technologies.

THE SOLUTION

AZURE CLOUD & .NET CORE API

Our team took part in the thorough rebuilding of the system both on the front- and back-end. Using the Azure platform and .NET Core technology, the software was migrated from ASP.NET MVC to Angular + .NET Core Web Api. In order to increase computing power and disperse calculations, complex tax optimization option calculations are performed in the Azure Functions cloud. Communication between the web application and the aforementioned functions is done via Azure Service Bus.

THE RESULTS

STABLE & SCALABLE PERFORMANCE

During a year of work, the system was transformed from a state of instability and high failure rate into a stable working program with the possibility of easy scaling and adding new functions “on the fly”. The system allows for easy creation, transformation, commenting and exporting of working documents, presenting the results of calculations in the form of clear visualizations. Thanks to significantly improved performance and a modernized user interface, the program has been very warmly welcomed by PWC and end users.

FAQ

01
How can legacy business software be modernized without disrupting daily operations?
Arrow down

Modernization can be carried out incrementally by migrating critical components to modern technologies while maintaining business continuity. This approach reduces risk, improves system stability, and allows organizations to benefit from new capabilities without interrupting ongoing operations.

02
Why move complex business calculations to the cloud?
Arrow down

Cloud services make it possible to distribute resource-intensive calculations across scalable infrastructure. This improves performance, shortens processing times, and enables the system to handle increasing workloads without compromising user experience.

03
What are the benefits of migrating from a monolithic application to a modern cloud-based architecture?
Arrow down

A modern architecture improves scalability, security, and maintainability while making it easier to introduce new features. Organizations also benefit from better system reliability, faster development cycles, and the flexibility to adapt to changing business requirements.
