6 What is a Legacy System? (Pejoratives) Old Obsolete Outdated Needs Replacement Past Its Prime Outlived Its Usefulness In Need of Replacement No one knows how to use it anymore. Why are we still using this? Older than (me, my parents, my grandparents, dirt, etc.) {Uncomfortable smiles, laughter, etc.} 6
7 What is a Legacy System? A legacy system is an older system that is still in use. 7
8 Examples A-10 Older Buildings Big Safari Infrastructure Intercontinental Ballistic Missiles (ICBMs) Health Care 8
9 Why Are We Still Using Legacy Systems? They fulfill their missions better than anything else out there! The cost of redesigning or replacing is impractical. The cost of retraining employees, customers, or users is very high. We cannot afford the down time (lack of availability) during transition. How would we replace the system (lack of understanding)? We replace the system later, and it should be pretty easy to do (complacency). Newer systems may be better, but they offer undesirable features or unneeded capability that we do not want at this time. Newer systems have uncertain deployment dates. 9
10 Why Are We Still Using Legacy Systems? November 7, $19.8 Trillion U.S. deficit Pressure to cut spending Pressure to stretch every dollar (tax-payer dollars your money) What about raising taxes for extra revenue? Jean-Baptiste Colbert The art of taxation consists in so plucking the goose as to procure the largest quantity of feathers with the least possible amount of hissing. Quoted in: William Sharp McKechnie (1896). The State & the Individual: An Introduction to Political Science, with Special Reference to Socialistic and Individualistic Theories. p

12 Younger Engineers & Legacy Systems Creativity Think of how to apply to new missions and problem spaces Modernization Chance to apply new technologies, methods to older system and keep it relevant make it better Established System has been around for a long time, lots of history Mentoring Lots of older engineers to mentor you Growth System will be around for a while Respect System has proven capabilities, good reputation, respect of community Pride Service to country ( noble cause ), save lives, help people, save money, save time 12
13 Older Engineers & Legacy Systems Creativity Always new problems to solve Modernization Can learn about newer technologies and how they can apply to your system Established Lots of history, and you have played a key role in it Mentoring Lots of younger engineers looking for guidance Growth Plenty of growth opportunities still available Respect People respect your contributions Pride Service to country ( noble cause ), save lives, help people, save money, save time and you can leave behind a legacy. 13

18 Architecture Lots of effort being put into documenting the architecture of legacy systems Purpose: To use as a reference for future modifications or proofs of concept Documenting Mission Capabilities & Requirements Operational Architecture Functional Architecture Physical Architecture Gathering documents and external files 18
19 Architecture At the most fundamental level, systems are collections of different things that together produce results unachievable by the elements alone. For example, only when all elements are connected and working together do automobiles produce transportation, human organs produce life, and space produce information. These system-produced results, or 'system functions', derive almost solely from the interrelationships among the elements, a fact that largely determines the technical role and principal responsibilities of the systems architect. -- Mark A. Maier The Art of Systems Architecting, 3 rd Edition 19

24 Replacement 24
25 Replacement I have never seen an entire legacy system replaced. Legacy systems live longer than people who worked on them. Things to consider Capture knowledge. Have well defined vision and goals. Understand what you are replacing and why. Start data conversion and cleanup. (Assume it will take longer than expected.) Understand interface complexity. Invest in organizational change. Avoid arbitrary target dates unless attainable. Request needed resources even if it may upset management or customers. Be realistic; you will never replace the whole thing at once! 25
26 Concluding Thoughts 26
27 Concluding Thoughts Working on a legacy system means using your engineering toolkit in a different way. Legacy Systems is a great career choice for younger and older engineers. You can build your entire career around legacy systems. Do not be surprised if a legacy system outlives you. Enjoy your work, and learn along the way. My biggest thrill is when I plan something and it fails. My mind is then filled with ideas on how I can improve it. Engineering without personality doesn t have much value.
