Move your OutSystems 11 apps to the cloud-native era — without a rebuild
We assess your Service Studio portfolio, automate what ODC can convert, and hand-migrate what it can't — so your team lands on OutSystems Developer Cloud with zero business logic left behind.

Engineered by Experts, Built for Scale
Monolithic enterprise architectures often create painful bottlenecks—where a single change in one module requires re-testing and re-deploying the entire application stack. We systematically decompose tightly-coupled legacy O11 modules into clean, autonomous ODC microservices that build, test, and ship on their own independent timelines.
By establishing clear domain boundaries, isolated data models, and modern API interfaces, your engineering teams gain the freedom to iterate faster without stepping on each other's toes. The result is a resilient, scalable ecosystem designed to accelerate feature delivery while minimizing downtime and operational risk.

OutSystems ODC
What actually changes under the hood
Moving to ODC isn’t an upgrade — it’s an architectural shift. From monolithic runtimes to containerized microservices, ODC fundamentally changes how you build, scale, and deploy low-code applications. Here is the engineering reality behind the evolution.
Why enterprises are moving from OutSystems 11 to ODC
OutSystems Developer Cloud (ODC) is the next evolution of the OutSystems platform, designed around cloud-native architecture, Kubernetes orchestration, containerized deployments, and Git-based development workflows. Unlike traditional O11 environments, ODC allows organizations to build applications that are more scalable, resilient, and easier to maintain.
Migrating to ODC is more than a platform upgrade—it is an opportunity to modernize your application landscape, reduce operational overhead, improve deployment speed, and prepare your business for future digital transformation initiatives.
Cloud Native
Built on Kubernetes with automatic scaling and modern deployment practices.
Faster Delivery
Independent deployments and Git integration accelerate release cycles.
Enterprise Ready
Security, governance, observability, and resilience designed for large-scale applications.
Six phases, one predictable cutover date
A systematic engineering roadmap designed to modernize your OutSystems portfolio without operational friction. From initial static code analysis and automated refactoring to canary cutovers and 24/7 hypercare, our six-phase framework ensures every module, API, and database entity transitions seamlessly to native cloud microservices.
Assessment
Inventory every module, integration, and dependency.
Compatibility Scan
Score each app against ODC's supported patterns.
Incremental Refactor
Restructure non-portable logic module by module.
Parallel-Run
O11 and ODC run side by side against the same data.
Cutover
Traffic shifts to ODC on an agreed maintenance window.
Hypercare
Two weeks of elevated monitoring post-launch.
How much of your portfolio migrates automatically
Not every component transitions the same way. Our compatibility scan benchmarks your exact O11 code against ODC architectural rules, giving you a clear breakdown of automated conversions versus hands-on refactoring before writing a single line of code.
Reactive Web Screens
OutSystems Reactive UI patterns translate seamlessly into ODC client action trees with minimal layout or CSS adjustments.
Business Process Logic
Server actions, aggregates, and core application workflows port over directly, requiring manual checks only for complex session dependencies.
Custom Integrations
REST/SOAP endpoints convert easily, but legacy C# Integration Studio extensions require refactoring into modern external logic libraries (Wasm).
Traditional Web Screens
Legacy ASP.NET view state models are unsupported in ODC and need to be modernized into clean, modern Reactive Web UI components.
What teams gain the week they cut over
AI-Assisted Development
ODC Studio's generative tooling scaffolds logic and screens straight from a prompt.
Container-Native Scaling
Every app scales independently instead of competing for one server's headroom.
Git-Native CI/CD
Branch, review, and ship through pipelines your platform team already trusts.
Usage-Based Cost
Pay for the compute apps actually consume instead of provisioned peak capacity.
Multi-Cloud Portability
Run on AWS, Azure, or GCP without re-platforming a single module.
Modern Governance
Environment policies, secrets, and access control align with cloud-native standards.
How we deliver successful O11 to ODC migrations
Every migration begins with a detailed technical assessment of your existing OutSystems 11 applications. We identify unsupported components, custom extensions, integrations, Forge assets, and architectural dependencies before any migration work starts.
Our engineers then create a structured migration roadmap, separating automated conversions from manual modernization activities. Throughout the engagement, we perform continuous validation, regression testing, and performance checks to ensure the migrated application behaves exactly as expected.
Finally, we support production deployment, post-go-live monitoring, and optimization so your teams can confidently adopt the capabilities of OutSystems Developer Cloud.
Migration Benefits
- ✔ Detailed application assessment
- ✔ Dependency analysis
- ✔ Secure migration strategy
- ✔ Automated & manual validation
- ✔ Production rollout support
Watch every module cross over in real time
Our migration console tracks each app's conversion status so your team always knows exactly what's left before cutover — no spreadsheet trackers required.

A canary rollout moves real traffic from O11 to ODC in controlled stages, so any regression is caught before it reaches your full user base.
What enterprise teams usually ask us
Do we need to freeze O11 development during migration?
No — we branch off a stable baseline and reconcile any O11 changes made during migration before the parallel-run phase begins.
What happens to Traditional Web screens?
They can't auto-convert. We rebuild them as Reactive Web screens against the same data model, matched against your original UI for sign-off.
Can we migrate module by module instead of all at once?
Yes — most engagements phase migration by module or business domain, each with its own compatibility scan and cutover date.
How do you handle custom integrations and on-prem gateways?
These get manually re-mapped to ODC's native connectors during the incremental refactor phase, then validated in parallel-run against production traffic.
What if we need to roll back after cutover?
>Every cutover keeps O11 warm and traffic-routable for a defined hypercare window, so a rollback is a routing change, not a re-migration.
