PRACTICE GUIDE: BUSINESS DRIVEN APPLICATION MODERNIZATION
There is a general desire to increase the level of business influence in
modernizing applications, but what does this mean? In this article we
introduce context and techniques for both analyzing requirements and
particularly for managing the response to business needs in the application
modernization process. We also introduce the concept of Agility Potential
- a technique and measure to facilitate a rational conversation between
business and IT managers on the subject of agility, as well as providing
the basis for a system of metrics for management and control.

PRACTICE GUIDE: THE AGILE MODERNIZATION PROCESS
In a previous report we introduced the Application Modernization process
decomposing it into Disciplines, Process Unit and Tasks. In this report,
we discuss an agile project structure and organization and provide a
detailed breakdown of the Application Modernization process in terms of
Project Phases and Work Packages. This approach to application modernization
will allow an escalation from a sponsored modernization effort to an
enterprise SOA effort over time. It can be viewed as the pragmatic middle
ground between a difficult to motivate enterprise level SOA and successive
SOA projects that will inevitably
lead to service anarchy.
