Abstract: Systems, computer-implemented methods, and computer program products to facilitate modernization of an application are provided. According to an embodiment, a system can comprise a memory that stores computer executable components and a processor that executes the computer executable components stored in the memory. The computer executable components can comprise a determination component that determines one or more relevant surrounding contexts for a raw entity. The computer executable components also can comprise a matching component that matches the one or more relevant surrounding contexts with one or more known surrounding contexts of one or more known entities. The computer executable components further can comprise a type identification component that identifies an entity type for the raw entity based on the matching of the one or more relevant surrounding contexts with the one or more known surrounding contexts.
