Interview: Pega's 'Blueprint' for breaking the curse of legacy IT | Computer Weekly
Briefly

Businesses are struggling with maintaining older IT systems that are necessary for critical functions, limiting their ability to invest in new technologies. A recent survey revealed half of organizations rely on systems over ten years old, while some have systems ranging between twenty to thirty years old. Don Schuerman, CTO of Pegasystems, emphasizes the importance of courage in addressing this issue. Suppliers are working on tools to ease migration from outdated systems, indicating a growing urgency to innovate and optimize IT infrastructure for future growth.
