    SHOW NOTES:

    • Mechanical Orchard (homepage)
    • Startup led by ex-Pivotal CEO lands $50M to modernize apps (TechCrunch)

    Topic 1 - Welcome to the show. Tell us about your background, and then give us a little bit of background on Mechanical Orchard.

    Topic 2 - Many of the MO team come from Pivotal (especially Pivotal Labs), as well as being involved with the Agile Manifesto, Extreme Programming, etc. How did the mission of the company get focus on modernizing existing applications?

    Topic 3 - Modernization projects have traditionally been really costly, with a low success rate. Why is now the right time to focus on this area?

    Topic 4 - I’m really interested in how MO technology works. It seems like a variation of a digital twin, mixed with some AI capabilities. Give us the big picture of how this is a different approach to modernization.

    Topic 5 - How much culture/process change is needed with MO to be successful?

    Topic 6 - What do the stages of success look like with your approach to application modernization?
