Ayan Gupta recaps an end-to-end approach to modernizing legacy Java applications on Azure, tying together assessment, upgrades, workflow customization, containerization, deployment, and scaling the process across repositories using developer-controlled, reviewable workflows with GitHub Copilot support.

Ayan Gupta shows how to take GitHub Copilot’s Java modernization workflow out of the IDE and run it at scale from the terminal, producing assessment reports, upgrade plans, diffs, and pull requests across many repositories, and wiring the process into repeatable CI/CD and scheduled jobs.

Ayan Gupta demonstrates how the GitHub Copilot app modernization extension containerizes a Java 21 application with Docker, validates it locally, and then provisions Azure infrastructure and deploys to Azure Container Apps using built-in tasks and an agent-driven workflow.

Ayan Gupta demonstrates how to use the GitHub Copilot app modernization extension to assess a legacy Java codebase and produce an actionable modernization plan, including cloud readiness findings, Java upgrade issues, CVEs, and coverage insights.

Ayan Gupta introduces a hands-on video series on modernizing legacy Java applications using GitHub Copilot, outlining a four-phase loop (Assess, Upgrade, Migrate, Test & Deploy) and how AI-assisted workflows can reduce manual effort across dependencies, security fixes, and deployment steps.
