  17. SaaS Modernization Accelerators • OpenEdge ABL • Object Orientation • ProDatasets • OpenEdge Architect • Model-Driven Software Development • Enterprise Architect UML Plugin to OpenEdge Architect IDE • 100% of Components modeled in UML, ABL code generation • Standardized Architecture & Components • CloudPoint Framework available via Progress Professional Services

  18. Modernization Lessons Learned • Planning & Process • Iterative, Pilot Cycles, Systematize • Modernization Tools • YMMV, Never 100% • Development Environment & Infrastructure • Get architecture & standards well-defined • Bed down & test, test, test • Teams • Spend the time to enable, select aggressive players • Quality • Test, review, & test again • Don’t let ‘Perfect’ be the enemy of ‘Great’
