Watch: Most legacy rewrites don't fail at the code. They fail at the discovery phase. Teams spending months trying to understand what they're replacing before writing a single line.

We can fix that with CM evovleIT.

The code doesn't forget. It doesn't have gaps in recollection. It doesn't omit what seems obvious.

The organizations most exposed to the COBOL retirement wave are the ones whose systems are running just fine, because no one has had reason to understand exactly why.

That and more in Rethinking Modernization...

People can only document what they know they know.

The rest lives in the code.

Why documentation sprints aren't enough, and what the systematic, bullet-proof alternative looks like.

Windows 11 runs on a 1995 API. COBOL processes $3 trillion in transactions every day. 800 billion lines of legacy code are in active production right now. Old code isn't dying. It's load-bearing.

IBM Bob recently hit GA.

For IBM i and mainframe shops, that matters. But AI-first IDEs are only as capable as the context they operate on, and most legacy estates aren't there yet.
