Course Overview
Systems supporting legacy cloud migration fail in ways that are obvious afterwards and invisible before. Security and delivery speed are traded against each other in this strand of technology and systems delivery whether or not anyone says so. Ambition around this part of technology and systems delivery outruns capacity unless the sequencing is deliberate. Participants finish able to explain legacy cloud migration to a non-specialist audience without losing precision. The course covers the practice within technology and systems delivery at the level of detail needed to act, and stops there. The programme uses small-group work so that each participant's treatment of this part of technology and systems delivery is examined, not just described. The content is relevant to those who own legacy cloud migration and to those who are held accountable for its results. Applied research in technology and systems delivery consistently shows that early structure around the technology and systems delivery capability reduces downstream rework. It ends with a prioritised list of changes to the practice within technology and systems delivery that the participant is prepared to defend internally.
