Application Migration from JSF to React and Java Spring Boot

Challenge:

Modernizing legacy JSF application to improve user experience, performance, and scalability.

Our Approach:

Assessment and Planning:

Conducted a comprehensive analysis & identified key components, dependencies, & critical functionality.
Collaborated with stakeholders to define migration goals & success criteria.

Technology Selection:

Chose React for the front-end, leveraging its component-based architecture & rich ecosystem of libraries.
Selected Java Spring Boot for the back-end due to its flexibility, performance, & robustness.

Front-end Migration to React:

Rewrote the user interface (UI) using React, creating a modern, responsive, and intuitive user experience.
Migrated JSF components to React components, ensuring a seamless transition for end-users.

Back-end Migration to Java Spring Boot:

Migrated server-side logic and services to Java Spring Boot, preserving critical business processes & data integrity.
Leveraged Spring Boot’s powerful features for RESTful APIs and microservices development.

Results:

A modern, responsive, and highly performant user interface built with React.
Enhanced scalability and maintainability with Java Spring Boot on the server-side.
Improved user experience, faster page loading times, and reduced latency.
Successful transition from a monolithic JSF application to a more agile and modular architecture.
