Transforming legacy technology
Softwire is sponsoring a focused workshop at this year’s TINTech on a key challenge facing the insurance and financial services sector: how to modernise legacy technology.
Ian Cartwright will open the session with a talk titled “Legacy Displacement Patterns”, sharing practical ways to move away from outdated systems.
This workshop is designed for those dealing with the complexity of legacy estates. You’ll hear about real examples, proven approaches and the factors that make modernisation work – especially in highly regulated, operationally sensitive environments.
The session will cover:
- How to build a business case that goes beyond cost-cutting
- Ways to use cloud and new technologies to accelerate change
- Approaches for enabling real-time, end-to-end data
- Key factors for continually improving core legacy systems
Speakers:
- Ian Cartwright, Principal Technical Consultant (Softwire)
- Andrew Beal, Group Chief Architect (Markerstudy)
