Compare benefits, costs, risks and dependencies to choose a practical, phased approach to application modernization.
Who is this for? IT management, product managers and decision-makers with a grown application portfolio.
Not every older application needs to be completely replaced. Sometimes an improved interface or more stable operation brings more benefits than a completely new development. The decision should therefore be based on the business process and its actual limitations.
Possible paths range from continued operation and targeted improvement to technical relocation and replacement. Each option changes costs, capabilities and risks differently. A decision template makes these differences visible and names assumptions instead of justifying a preferred technology retrospectively.
Process overview, operating costs, known faults, license commitments and upcoming changes are helpful. Estimates may be used, but must remain recognizable as such.
Take into account the parallel operation and the efforts of the departments. A technically successful migration is not yet a success if data quality, training or the replacement of old processes remain unclear.
The requirements and options should be clear first. The technology selection follows from this and is checked against operation and existing capabilities.
Through sensible intermediate states, demarcated functional areas and clear handover criteria. Not every system can be replaced step by step in the same way.
