A "legacy system" refers to any piece of software or technology that has been outdated or superseded by newer versions or technologies. It can also refer to a system that is still in use, but is no longer supported or maintained by its original creators. Some synonyms for legacy system include: outdated system, obsolete technology, aged software, vintage hardware, old-fashioned system, archaic technology, and historical software. These terms all describe technology that is no longer up-to-date or functional. While legacy systems can still be used for certain purposes, they often require extensive maintenance and support to stay operational, making them less reliable than newer technologies.
