Vembu was able to build Zoho precisely because of globalization - sales offices across the world and ODC at TN. He is able to set up office in Tenkasi and service the world because of globalization, which is Ranjan's point too.
> the production of these services can be distributed across a country > It will also generate a source of income and a reliable stock of human capital to seed rural communities that would otherwise lack the economic capacity to survive the loss of agricultural incomes.
> Emission mitigation will require an enormous increase in production, investment, financing, and innovation to replace existing emission-intensive capital stock with climate-friendly stock. Continued globalization will facilitate all this.
> elites are talking about the end of the world, we are talking about the end of the month He puts climate action into 3 buckets: - mitigating - adapting - migrating > each bucket bears more of the burden of adjustment as less is done on previous buckets.
Rajan says: > continued growth of cross-border flows of trade, capital, technology, information, and people, which is what I mean by globalization, will be needed to tackle climate change > Climate action and continued globalization are joined at the hip
@cvkrishnan @rravi It all depends on the theme of the conferences. Most often what is spoken in one context is so out of line for another context.
Here is a tutorial @smashingmag about headless wordpress How To Create A Headless WordPress Site On The JAMstack
Both @Netlify & @smashingmag blogged a lot about their thinking, work, and actual migration. Here @Netlify talks about "headless wordpress"
@Mundra08 @sanjaynagral @WSDIndia @strayingaround @AparnaKarthi A baby dies because of stay dog bites, but residents wouldn't allow catching them. What a pity 😱😩 Misplaced sympathies. For rich, love for dog is more important than safety for poor.
@samridhisukhani @YellowVisuals > The identity is certain , however the Process is uncertain and keeps changing. Exactly how it should be. Thanks for sharing. BTW, Hampi is awesome. Don't forget to see the sunset from the hills.
@samridhisukhani @YellowVisuals That's interesting. Would you mind sharing that mind map @samridhisukhani ?
@jackerhack Unfortunate fall out would be any future expose by wire (on anything) and anyone on meta. Will be no credibility.
@jithamithra I understand the #jtbd framework but has hard time implementing it. Because everything will level up to - “buyers are buying piece of mind” Like most beauty queens say - “world peace”
Like any change programs, modernizing legacy apps is hard; But most often the options before the businesses are: Do or Die Hope this thread has been useful. If so, would you mind following @jjude for more business & technology threads?
Others steps in modernizing the legacy apps • Choose outsource vs in-house • Assemble a project team • Implement • Support
Transform • Redesign the application from ground-up for the changed business context • Not just technology changes, but business models too • Hardest to convince internal teams
Replatform • No change in functionalities and API signatures • Dependent applications will work as is • Use cloud technologies • Deploy DevOps practices to deploy automatically • Use monitoring facilities of the cloud platform
Lift & Shift • containerize the application • no change in functionality • need either the code or at least the executable(s)
Evaluate modernization methods • Lift & Shift • Replatform • Transform More info on each of these methods 👇
Choose applications for modernization • Don't go with all applications • Choose low-hanging fruits to test the waters • Build a cross-functional team to manage portfolio of applications
Needed Compliances • Geographical compliance (like GDPR) • Financial compliance (like SOX) • Domain specific compliance (like HIPPA)
Complexity of change • Does the domain knowledge exists within the company • Does the knowledge of the application exists within the company • Is there a documentation of the existing application
Cost of change • In-house vs outsourcing • Time & Effort needed • Ability to manage with existing members vs need to hire new members
Cost of status-quo • Missed opportunities • Escalating support costs • Risks of non-compliance to regulations • Ability to run on aging hardware
Fit for changed business context • Ability to match competition in offering services • Agility in releasing new services • Stability of the platform for more users
Steps to build a business case • Fit for changed business context • Cost of status-quo • Cost of change • Complexity of change • Needed Compliances More details on each👇
Building a business case Toughest to sell changes internally; so better to build a business case to sell to the board. If direction comes from the top, higher chances the initiative will succeed How can you build a solid business case? 👇
Steps to modernize legacy applications • Build a business case • Select apps to modernize • Evaluate methods • Choose outsource vs in-house • Assemble a project team • Implement • Support
@kandansudhakar @svembu @SundarSvga @sumanthraman Most these countries have healthy local market (talking only abt IT services), unlike in India the margins are very low. We can’t aim for fatty dollars margins and want to speak only local language. Let’s not forget Indian IT grew because of our knowledge of English.
@malpani My kids reached out to @singhtechnical & @Manish322Verma. And they both spent more than three hours with my boys talking about their business.
@ReggieG71833945 @BharatVarma3 @Ravisutanjani Cons of UPI: • easy spending of money (unlike earlier have to go to bank, withdraw money, stop spending once cash runs out) • impulsive buying (you can buy as soon as you have a desire) These are not technical or policy issues. They are cognitive / behaviour issues.
@RohitKuttappan Still Bangalore; Not just in terms of the opportunities and exposure, but travails of the city too; will prepare them for all kinds of scenarios life will throw at them.
- What is your take on MACH? - What other applications will embrace MACH architecture? - Should MACH be the default architecture for all new applications?
Also, since many startups are dismantling monolithic enterprise services, enterprises will demand more and more options to compose their offerings.
I expect all B2B products will be forced to embrace MACH architecture as customers will demand it as a default option.
Where is MAC used? JAMSTACKs have been experimenting with their own MACHs in content space. E-commerce giants like @BigCommerce & @AdobeCommerce are also experimenting with MACH
MACH is headless Buyers of the service are not bound by the inflexible frontend by the developers. They can design their own front-end; even compose a front-end borrowing from multiple services
MACH is cloud-native MACH softwares are developed using cloud services and hosted wholly on cloud. No on-prem or local installations ⇒ no maintenance hell of thousands of installations.
MACH is API-first APIs masks complexity of underlying business logics and exposes only signatures. APIs make it easy to build tools on top of reliable black-boxes.
MACH is micro-services Business functionalities developed, deployed, and managed independently. Key phrase - "Business functionalities"; not 100s of independent technical services - like sending emails.
MACH isn't a new concept. Remember Jeff Bezoz's 2002 memo: - Teams must communicate with each other through these interfaces That is API-first If every team has API, that is microservices It is Amazon, so runs on AWS ⇒ cloud-native Since everything is API, it is headless
@mijustin @danshipper Read it. Superb book.
@ashwinmahesh This is where TN fared better. This is what @ptrmadurai & @mkstalin put forward as holistic growth of a state - not just one silo but every aspect & everyone grows. Hope more parties talk about it and all state demand such growth.
@beastoftraal Compared to that Mani Ratnam seems to collect pots of gold.
