How Do You Eat an Elephant? An Architecture Modernization Story.

Tired of dry, academic presentations? Perfect—this one’s not that.
Join me for a story-driven, honest (and sometimes absurd) dive into how we modernized a 27-year-old software system powering 24/7 factory operations. Spoiler alert: we didn’t eat the elephant in one bite. It was all about breaking things down, tackling one piece at a time, and learning to chew before we swallowed.

This talk walks you through the messy, rewarding, and occasionally hilarious journey of architectural modernization—from unearthing hidden value during requirements gathering, to managing expectations, stepping out of comfort zones, and surviving a few cringe-worthy moments along the way. You’ll walk away with practical lessons, war stories, and yes… a surprise Tweety Bird cameo.

If you're facing your own legacy monster, this talk might just help you take the first bite.
