How can I migrate legacy contract?
Legacy Contract:
Legacy Contract is a fixed price or price formula, that does not provide for recovery of the costs associated with compliance with this regulation; the originally executed contract or agreement must have remained in effect and must not have been amended since September 1, 2006 to change or affect the terms governing the California greenhouse gas emissions responsibility, price, or amount of electricity or legacy contract qualified thermal output sold, or the expiration date.
It is a four steps process that needs to be followed to migrate legacy contracts:
Step 1 – Scan all the paper documents into a computer base file
Step 2 – Convert the scanned documents into the text from the images (OCR)
Step 3 – Extract data points from these contracts
Step 4 – Ingest documents and data points into the CLM

What are legacy systems?
Legacy systems or inherited systems, by definition, are those that have become outdated in companies . By legacy system we understand both the equipment and the applications. What they have in common, in this context, is that both in equipment and in applications it is not easy to change these systems. However, the risks involved in maintaining an obsolete legacy system must be assessed. They are the following:
Incompatibility:
Companies can run the risk of finding incompatibilities in their systems. That’s because if they work with outdated technologies, they don’t qualify for the benefits and features that other newer systems provide.
Security breaches:
An outdated system carries many risks. Among them, lack of support, no system updates, and no maintenance. A legacy system uses old standards and protocols. In this way they are forced to create patches that affect security, and also makes it difficult to comply with the regulation. Cloud security offers many more guarantees.
Lower performance.
Productivity and performance are seriously affected. Legacy systems, over time, slow down. In this line, it is common to lose performance, efficiency and productivity.
More maintenance costs and less competitiveness.
The expense generated by an obsolete system supposes using economic resources in a tool that, finally, will have to be replaced. Therefore, it affects the company’s investments and reduces competitiveness.
How to migrate legacy systems to the cloud?
It is obvious that these systems are configured as mission critical for companies . Along these lines, migration must be evaluated, analyzed and planned because it always has advantages for companies, regardless of what they do.
The easiest way to migrate legacy applications and systems to the cloud is to do so in a private cloud environment . This environment allows configurations tailored to what the company needs; something that does not happen with a public cloud. For this reason, running the migration is much easier. Thus, legacy applications can work without the need to modify them.
When you migrate legacy applications from an on-premises data center to a private cloud , you have the advantage of taking advantage of the scalability of cloud environments . Thus, configurations can be maintained and costs saved (pay per use, without extra costs for installation or maintenance or updates). The usual thing, in these cases, is to create a virtual environment that imitates the original environment.
