Migrations & Refactoring

The work that's been 'next quarter' for three quarters. Framework upgrades, service extractions, legacy cleanup.

The problem

You know the migration needs to happen. The framework is outdated, the monolith needs splitting, the database schema needs restructuring. But it's a huge, tedious, high-risk project that nobody wants to own — and pulling engineers off feature work to do it feels impossible.

How we solve it

This is where agents excel. Migrations are systematic, repetitive, and high-volume — exactly what AI agents do best. Our agents handle the bulk of the migration work while a senior engineer manages the strategy, handles edge cases, and ensures nothing breaks in production.

What you get

Migration strategy and rollback plan
Incremental, safe migration steps
Database schema migrations
Data migration scripts
Updated tests for migrated code
Feature flags for gradual rollout
Performance validation
Rollout documentation

Example projects

React class → hooks migration

Migrate 200+ components from class components to hooks. Incremental PRs, each tested independently. 3 weeks.

Monolith to microservices

Extract 3 bounded contexts into independent services. API contracts, database separation, deployment pipeline. 5 weeks.

Database migration (Postgres upgrade)

Schema restructuring, data migration, index optimization, zero-downtime cutover plan. 2 weeks.

Common questions

How do you handle zero-downtime migrations?

We use feature flags, blue-green deployment strategies, and incremental migration steps. Nothing goes live without a rollback plan.

What if the codebase is messy?

That's usually why you need a migration. Our agents are thorough and systematic — they handle messy codebases methodically, one component at a time.

Can you migrate between different languages or frameworks?

Yes. JavaScript to TypeScript, REST to GraphQL, Express to Fastify, Python 2 to 3 — we handle framework and language migrations.
