Hybrid Angular Migration for a Background Verification Platform
A leading background verification services provider needed to modernize its legacy AngularJS-based platform without interrupting operations. With offerings such as drug screening, identity verification, I-9 compliance, and DOT checks, which large enterprises use, the platform handled sensitive data under strict performance and compliance expectations. The client sought a secure and scalable upgrade path that enabled continuous feature delivery with zero downtime.
- Outdated Libraries: Legacy AngularJS and libraries posed security vulnerabilities in a sensitive domain.
- Performance Bottlenecks: The increased user load and data processing complexity resulted in performance degradation.
- Zero Downtime Requirement: As a business-critical platform, the system couldn’t afford any downtime for feature rollouts or upgrades.
- Regular Feature Additions: Constant demand for new feature releases with no room for long maintenance windows.
We proposed and implemented a hybrid migration model, enabling the seamless evolution of the platform without impacting live users. Key strategies included:
-
Hybrid Frontend Architecture:
Implemented a hybrid AngularJS-Angular architecture using UpgradeModule and downgradeComponent, enabling legacy and modern components to function together. -
Modular Refactoring:
Split the application into smaller, maintainable modules to progressively replace old parts. -
Library and Dependency Updates:
Upgraded all the required AngularJS libraries, patched security vulnerabilities, and optimized third-party integrations.
- Zero Downtime Migration: The upgrade was executed without any disruption to users or business operations.
- Improved Performance & Responsiveness: Optimized code and upgraded architecture reduced page load times and backend response latency.
- Enhanced Security & Compliance: Outdated libraries and vulnerable components were replaced with secure, compliant versions.
- Accelerated Feature Delivery: A modular codebase and CI/CD pipelines enabled faster and safer feature rollouts and testing cycles.
By adopting a hybrid upgrade approach, we enabled the client to modernize their background verification platform without interrupting business operations. The system is now secure, scalable, and maintainable, with a robust foundation for future enhancements.
