FAQ

Common questions from Charlotte teams

Can you help us modernize legacy banking systems without disrupting production?
Yes. We use proven patterns — strangler fig, event-driven APIs, and progressive migration — to modernize legacy banking platforms incrementally. Your mainframes keep running while we build modern Kubernetes microservices that gradually take over the business logic. No big-bang cutover required.
How quickly can you start?
Most engagements kick off within 5–10 business days. We start with a cloud audit, then move into sprint-based delivery.
Do we need to commit to a long-term contract?
No. We offer month-to-month engagements and fixed-scope projects. Most clients start with a 90-day pilot.
Will your team work within our existing tools and workflows?
Yes. We embed with your team using your Jira, Slack, GitHub, and CI tooling. We're an extension of your org, not a separate vendor.
