Cloud Native
Legacy systems have gotten a good workout over the last year, creating a good amount of stress for the heroes that maintain them. For some, the temptation to consider a full migration to the cloud is a tempting option. 

If you're thinking of moving your legacy system to the cloud, don't miss our latest heads-up article on that very subject at the link below. We also wrote a blog post of our own about the Evolution of Modernization that's worth a look for IT managers and software engineers looking into it.

The 12th CA 2E / CA Plex Conference, which we sponsor, still has the Conference Super Early Bird special that includes F1 racing tickets. Read more about that down below.
Heads Up 
Need to migrate legacy business logic to cloud-native?
Last week, we highlighted an in-depth article from Amazon about the complexities of moving mainframe, midrange, or UNIX proprietary systems to the cloud, including "short-term migration options, their key technical differences, as well as their differentiated benefits." 

This month we follow up with a broader article we found on SiliconAngle titled "Need to migrate legacy business logic to cloud-native?" for those thinking of migrating to the cloud, and not just on Amazon.
Fall Conference 
Start Your Engines for the Fall Conference
As many who work with us are familiar, CM First Group is a lead sponsor of the CA 2E / CA Plex Developer's Conference, with the next conference planned for October 25-27. If pre-launch planning is any indication, this is going to be one of the best conferences yet.

Here's the kicker: the conference is taking place immediately after the Formula 1 United States Grand Prix at Circuit of The Americas, Oct 22-24, with the final race held on Sunday, Oct 24. Event organizers are offering a Super Early Bird Special that adds tickets to attend this event seated with your fellow developers, and a ride to and from the conference to the track. Act fast as these tickets are limited and could sell out quickly.

You can register at the link here. If you want to take advantage of the Super Early Bird Special, simply select the "F1 Early Bird" option upon checkout.

CM evolveIT Case Studies

Addressing Goliath Application Modernization

A huge government agency was faced with the daunting task of modernizing an application with over 250 million lines of code built up over 40 years. CM evolveIT was a perfect fit for the task.
