short game. Very disappointed."

"If it was 99 cents then I would have rated it four or

five stars, because if you think about it Angry Birds is cheap

What is the market?

Is there a reason to change?

Are the barriers to exit high?

Mainframe

A mainframe has one of the worst price/performance ratios of any product or technology in any industry.

Slam dunk to replace mainframes with faster, smaller, cheaper servers?

COBOL (circa 1959)

56 Years

COBOL is not modern

80% of daily business transactions are still processed in COBOL* IT Modernization: The Changing COBOL Market Could Affect Your Decision – Gartner Group, 8 August 2008

One in four universities teach COBOL

* Bridging the COBOL skills gap – Micro Focus, 2013

1980: It was the ONLY choice

170 billion lines of code

* IT Modernization: The Changing COBOL Market Could Affect Your Decision – Gartner Group, 8 August 2008

That’s a lot of bitcoins….

And they just keep going

The Risk Of Failure Is High

31% of projects are cancelled before completed53% of projects will cost 189% of their original costs* Choas Report – Standish Group

Businesses will rely on COBOL for another

ten to twenty years*

Enterprise Applications

High barriers to exit

Blackberry

A once thriving company

Suddenly looked like this…..

No longer just a business device

Ubiquitous device

Everybody has one

I don’t need multiple phones!

We replace our phones every two years

Soon everyone was using something else

Mobile Devices

Low barriers to exit

What does the future hold?

Notes Mail

Current messaging

File store

30-day transition period

Messaging

Low barriers to exit

Notes Applications

Domino Designer on every desk

Easy to learn and deploy

Handle any problem

The most successful SMA platform ever!

• 50,000 companies• 200 applications (avg)• 10 million applications

Apple’s app store reached 1 million applications in October 2013

And the code….

5,000 lines per application x10 million applications =50 billion lines of code

Cost200 applications x$20,000 per application =$4 million investment

10 million applications x€20,000 per application =€200 billion investment

Time

IBM XPages:200 applications x5 weeks per application = 20 years

i.e. Team of 4 developers 5 years

Time

Platform migration:200 applications x3 months per application = 50 years

i.e. Large team of consultants forever

SMAs

High barriers to exit

Implications

Notes applications are NOT going away!

Think 10+ years

Business needs are not frozen

The expectation gap Is growing

Do Nothing….

Move to XPages or Connections or SharePoint

Move To Web Development
