Spent annually on maintaining legacy systems
67%
Digital transformations fail due to technical debt
45%
Migrations fail without deep assessment

AI-Blind Applications

Legacy apps can't see, learn, or act. Useless in an agentic AI future.

Expensive to Maintain

Legacy applications consume 60-80% of IT budgets while delivering minimal business value.

Difficult to Secure

Outdated systems create vulnerability gaps and compliance risks.

Resistant to Change

Monolithic architectures prevent rapid innovation and AI adoption.

1. Executive Summary

ATRS is a multi-module Java/Spring web application for airline ticket reservation. Built on the TERASOLUNA framework (v5.10.0), it demonstrates enterprise-grade patterns for a transactional booking system.

2. System Context
ACTORS Web User API Client HTTP / HTML REST / JSON ATRS APPLICATION Web Layer (JSP) REST API Layer Service Layer PostgreSQL ActiveMQ Artemis

Fig 2.1 — Actors interact via HTTP and REST; both funnel through the Service Layer into PostgreSQL and the JMS broker.

2.1 Core Features
A0–A2Authentication — login, logout, session mgmt B0–B2Ticket Operations — flight search, fare calc, reservation C0–C2Member Management — registration, profile update D1Reporting — async reservation history report
