This is why your app modernization projects fail

We've all been there. There's a legacy codebase that's old enough to go to a bar, and "surprisingly" it has become such a big ball of mud that adding new features or fixing bugs has become very time-consuming and expensive. And irritating enough for some people to consider resigning.

At last the leadership team makes the decision - this big ball of mud needs to be modernized! Let's cloudify it, how hard can it be? The goal is to make the app more maintainable and easier to develop, as well as increase the user happiness.

App modernization, meaning "modifying solutions to fit cloud", has been and will continue to be one of the hot topics in any company's cloud strategy. Unfortunately, modernization projects tend to fail at least partially. This talk explores that failure. 

I have over 2 decades of experience from this field, and as a CEO of a development company, I get to talk about these issues a lot with customer leadership and development teams. This talk is aimed at decision-makers, developers, team leaders, and all stakeholders who are part of a modernization project. After this talk, you'll know what to do to make your modernization project succeed.
