Many teams struggle with introducing front- or middle-office tooling based on modern tech stacks and usability expectations. Whether modernizing an existing suite, or building new functionality in a legacy ecosystem, product teams report slow and frustrating progress, or even failure. In this talk we’ll identify some of the typical pain points in modernization efforts, as well as strategies we’ve seen succeed in getting new products out the door faster.

Synopsis

We all know the desktop equivalent of the strangler pattern for migrating legacy applications to desktop containers - run them side-by-side on the user’s desktop, establish a common messaging substrate and then slowly migrate functionality screen-by-screen. What if there’s another way? What if I have applications I can no longer run on the user’s desktop? What do roller coasters have to do with anything? In this talk I’ll introduce a new pattern, one that introduces new opportunities for geriatric applications. Chris is a Solutions Architect based out of Scott Logic’s Newcastle office. He spends his days developing apps for financial services companies, which unfortunately are typically hidden behind paywalls. However, he is a prolific blog writer and speaker at events, so do check out some of his other talks and posts on the Scott Logic YouTube channel and blog.

Synopsis

For most financial apps, the presence of financial data either makes or breaks the experience.  However, getting data in the apps hasn’t always been switching a button.  What was thought of as unachievable just a decade ago, can now be achieved in a matter of minutes.  The panel discusses key friction points that have existed within the financial data landscape and how that is changing.
