Description

App modernization is essential for enterprises to stay secure, scalable and innovative—but traditionally it requires a lot of effort that can be redundant and complex. With GitHub Copilot app modernization, developers can now stay focused on innovation while offloading the repetitive, time-consuming modernization work to AI. 

These new capabilities include:   

  • General availability of upgrade for .NET and Java: GitHub Copilot now uses AI to automate the upgrade process for Java and .NET applications. The AI agents in GitHub analyze your codebase, detect breaking changes, suggest safe migration paths, and apply build fixes, CVE checks, and test validations with human in the loop throughout the entire process.   
  • General availability of app modernization for Java, and Public Preview of app modernization for .NET: GitHub Copilot now streamlines your end-to-end app modernization journey on Azure. The AI agents within GitHub Copilot analyze your application, identify dependencies, fix platform-specific issues, containerize the app, generate deployment artifacts, and deploy to Azure dev/test environments, all while aligning with your organization’s security and compliance standards.
