Managing Systems Migrations and Upgrades: Demystifying the Technology Puzzle

Buy
Managing Systems Migrations and Upgrades is the perfect book for technology managers who want a rational guide to evaluating the business aspects of various possible technical solutions. Enterprises today are in the middle of the R&D race for technology leadership, with providers who increasingly need to create markets for new technologies while shortening development, implementation, and life cycles. The cost for the current tempo of technology life cycles is endless change-management controls, organizational chaos, production use of high-risk beta products, and greater potential for failure of existing systems during migration.

Burkey and Breakfield help you answer questions such as, "Is the only solution open to me spending more that the industry average in order to succeed?" and "What are the warning signs that tell me to pass on a particular product offering?" as well as "How can my organization avoid the 'technical death marches' typical of the industry?" This book will take the confusion out of when to make shifts in your systems and help you evaluate the value proposition of these technology changes.

· Provides a methodology for decision making and implementation of upgrades and migrations
· Avoids marketing hype and the "technical herding" instinct
· Offers a tool to optimize technology changes for both staff and customers

The combination of the views on outsourcing, technology support, employees, staff technology training, eBusiness, and aggressive marketing/selling campaigns make it difficult to understand the right technology change and considerations to minimize the organizational impact when technology is adopted. Some of the changes are coming so rapidly that digestion by the technical staff of the Enterprise is increasingly difficult.
