Information Services Group (ISG), a leading global technology research and advisory firm, named Hexaware a Leader in Application Modernization Services in the ISG Provider Lens™ Mainframes – Services and Solutions 2025 US Quadrant Report. Some of the top service providers who have been called out as Leaders in the report are Hexaware, TCS, Infosys, Capgemini, and Accenture.
Generative AI (GenAI) is rapidly transforming mainframe modernization by facilitating faster migrations to the cloud and improving the usability of legacy systems. It allows businesses to adopt modern practices such as DevOps and APIs while automating code inspection and documentation, which reduces dependency on senior experts. This shift has led to a preference for reengineering over simple replatforming, as businesses seek to incorporate innovative features into their applications. Overall, GenAI is crucial for extending the lifespan of mainframe systems and ensuring they meet evolving business requirements efficiently.
Hexaware has been recognized as a Leader in the Application Modernization Services quadrant owing to its commitment to an agile, cost-effective, and efficient modernization approach led by the RapidX® platform. Hexaware’s RapidX® is a GenAI platform that enhances knowledge sharing by generating AI subject matter experts (SMEs) for project teams, streamlining onboarding, and improving code understanding for new developers. With more than 15 function-specific AI SMEs per application, it accelerates legacy system modernization by making discovered knowledge accessible.
Furthermore, Hexaware’s framework supports efficient project execution through tools like RapidX®, CAST, AWS Blu Age, and Natsoft, enabling full or semi-automated refactoring. By leveraging strong CI/CD integration, IDEs, and partner tools like TmaxSoft and Rocket Software, Hexaware also ensures agile delivery. Its robust assessment tools help prioritize high-value modernization efforts, allowing clients to fund future projects using gains from earlier ones.
