There has been a lot of excitement about Marianne Bellotti's book "Kill It With Fire: Manage Aging Computer Systems (and Future Proof Modern Ones)".
Marianne's unique background has led her to study how culture influences the implementation and development of software.
With her significant experience in restoring old systems to operational excellence, she has a well-informed perspective on how to modernize systems incorporating the best of mainframes and newer technologies.
She argues that modernization should always start with business objectives and wherever possible, leverage the existing investment in technologies and applications.
In this session, Misty Decker will highlight the key points in the book with a special focus on the unique perspectives not usually seen elsewhere.
