“…Software frameworks' source codes are modified by developers to include the newest features [2], enhance built-in functionality, and get rid of outmoded ones. 3 The investigation of inter-class connections, method calls, and data types constitutes structural analysis. 4 Behavioral analysis methodologies revolve around the program's execution behavior.…”

“…When programmers are assigned with modifying the origin code of a considerable or unknown structure, they dedicate a significant amount of time and effort in program understanding tasks to acquire the expertise essential to implement the modifications. A component of this strategy is referred to as "feature location", an activity in software development whereby programmers look for entities in the source code (such as methods or classes) which implement features [3].…”

The creation of intelligent software depends on the ability to transfer software without any restrictions. In this article, a crucial stage in software engineering, the feature extraction for effective software transplantation, is discussed. As hardware, operating systems, or other factors change, it is commonly necessary to move software from one environment to another. It is vital to identify and extract the relevant software characteristics, which might be challenging given how complex software is, in order to carry out efficient software transplantation. On the other hand, the procedure to extract these attributes from the software might be time-consuming and need extensive understanding. To address this, we propose a transplantation strategy that prioritizes automation with the help of AWS. Our approach involves an agent running on the application server (on-premises). It performs the task of feature identification, extraction and deployment on AWS Cloud. Currently, our strategy is confined to Java and .NET applications.
