##  What Is Application Modernization?
Application modernization is the process of meeting changing business needs by updating an organization’s application landscape with the latest technologies. Modernization goes beyond simply replacing legacy software with SaaS solutions. It also involves updating the underlying infrastructure, architecture, and integrations.
Application modernization can take many forms depending on your organization’s goals, including:
  * Replacing outdated applications with modern alternatives
  * Developing API-enabled applications for better integration and flexibility
  * Adopting a data platform architecture
  * Migrating applications to the cloud
