Why legacy extension and not replacement?
Many enterprises are enhancing their existing legacy mainframe and client/server applications to make them accessible over the Web.
Properly planned and implemented, this approach can exploit the enormous investment in the existing applications, especially the codification of business rules, and can deliver a Web-based solution more rapidly than development from scratch.
