What legacy code are companies trying to replace?
We analyzed 1,105 modernization inquiries to see which technologies organizations are trying to leave behind, how large those applications are, and where demand is growing.
The results are hard to ignore: 83% of inquiries named a technology first released before 2000, and more than two-thirds involved Visual Basic 6.
