Step by step without interruption or stoppage
LUX Bit by bit
LUX Bit by bit is the methodology that enables modernization during operation. This way of working means that different parts can be upgraded and replaced separately. It makes it possible to prioritize efforts where modernization is most urgent, while at the same time the investment can be made step by step as separate projects.
Make decisions during the work
Modernization with LUX Bit by bit means that you can take one step at a time and make decisions during the work, instead of being locked into a large investment.
Current situation analysis and feasibility study
We start by mapping the current situation to identify the specific system’s modernization needs. By dividing your system into different parts, we can easily choose to replace or upgrade certain parts and functions, while keeping those that work well.
Continue when you see results
As a suggestion, you choose one area to work on and return to the others when you have a proof of concept where a good ROI has been demonstrated. The advantages of working this way are that the costs, expectations and results become more tangible.

Why LUX?
IBM i is one of the most stable platforms on the market, but a lot has changed in terms of user-friendliness and interaction. Therefore, a carefully planned modernisation is required that preserves the valuable solutions that have been tailored to your business over the years. To meet this need, Apper has developed LUX – a safe and cost-effective method for modernising IBM i at a pace that suits you.
By using LUX to modernise IBM i, you avoid the major risks of failure that often arise when tranistioning to a standard system. You also avoid the high costs involved in developing your own customised system. Waiting to take action in itself entails an increasing risk. Key personnel are getting older, while what we call the “tech debt” grows. That’s why LUX is a way to actively work with your modernisation. It allows you to maintain unique values and bit-by-bit, without disrupting operations, update your system with full visibility into all costs.
