NG-BLU Networks is one of the largest infrastructure-independent providers of Internet, MPLS IPVPN, SD-WAN, Security, IP Telephony, and Data Center services in the Netherlands.
After years of growth, NG-BLU faced the same challenge that many established technology providers encounter: legacy systems slowing down innovation. Their digital ecosystem had become fragmented, making it difficult to launch new services, automate processes, or provide a modern customer experience.
They needed more than just an upgrade. NG-BLU needed a full digital transformation that could align their infrastructure with their strategic vision for the next decade.
Instead of replacing everything at once, we applied the Strangler Fig Pattern, a proven strategy that allows new systems to grow around existing ones until the old architecture can be safely retired.
This approach let us modernize core components step by step while keeping business operations uninterrupted. Every new module was designed for scalability, performance, and seamless integration with NG-BLU’s expanding service portfolio.
Worked closely with NG-Blu’s technical and business teams.
Daily standups, bi-weekly demos, and RFC-driven change management ensured transparency and alignment.
Chose safe, modular steps instead of a risky full rewrite.
Structured approvals to manage evolving technical scope.
Enhanced dashboards with new business functionality.
Third-party integrations: PortaOne, AFAS, and IAM via Microsoft SSO.
Admin tools for user permission management with Microsoft SSO.
Front-end tools enabling manual clean-up of legacy data.
Database migration and synchronisation through shadow deployments (with partners).
Scalable infrastructure foundation designed for future growth.
