Event information
Come to our another Focus Group!
Join us for “Rewriting legacy systems and managing technical debt”, led by Miroslav Fuksa, CEO & Founder of Coding Bear.
Sooner or later, every CTO is faced with a fundamental decision - continue to maintain an aging system or completely rewrite it? Legacy systems are full of trade-offs and technical debt that slows development and increases costs. Therefore, companies often opt for a rewrite with the vision of a modern, clean and sustainable solution.
But the reality is often different - rewrites are often protracted, expensive and a large number of them never reach their destination. Rewriting a system can be a huge trap that a company falls into if it underestimates the risks, misjudges the complexity, or changes priorities during the project. How to get out of it?
In this focus group we will discuss:
When it makes sense to rewrite and when it's better to stick with the existing solution
Which strategy to choose - big bang vs. incremental rewrite
How to minimize the risks of rewrites in actively developed systems
How to use AI to rewrite legacy code into modern technologies - examples from practice
How to effectively manage technical debt so that rewrites don't have to happen at all
Practical examples - successful and unsuccessful rewrites
Rewriting is not just about technology, but also about strategy, rewrite project management and risk. Come share your experiences with other CTOs!
A focus group is a format where a smaller number of people come together for an open and confidential discussion – providing you the opportunity to dive deep into topics that matter most to you.
Don’t miss this chance to gain valuable insights and ask your pressing questions!
In order to ensure the participation of relevant focus group participants, a registration fee of 700 CZK is required.
