Thursday, June 6th, Jeremiah Hammond, Senior Technical Project Lead at DB Services will present, Rewrite or Reuse – Evaluating Building a System from Scratch. We will look at a ground up rewrite vs modifying an existing system over time. Learn about his experience of migrating systems from Microsoft Access to FileMaker which requires a rewrite. In addition we’ll cover the decision process when inheriting FileMaker systems, focusing on whether to build from scratch or modify the existing FileMaker system.
Topics will include:
-
-Software case studies
-Natural tendencies of programmers
-Surviving a ground-up rewrite
-When you should never use the existing system
-Additional resources
