The System i Developers Road Atlas (formerly called the Roadmap) is now at Version 4. The original version of the Roadmap provided an evolutionary path for developers to follow when modernizing their applications on the System i platform, gradually increasing their ability to accommodate the evolving needs of the business. Since the first version, IBM has listened to the experiences of developers and development shops as they have progressed down a path toward modernization. The result has been clarification and refinement of the messages that were contained in the original roadmap strategy.
This course dedicates several panels for the purpose of explaining what the System i Road Atlas is — from a high-level perspective. You will learn about the history of its previous versions and why it is important. The largest section of this course is dedicated to focusing, in detail, on the choices and functional considerations for taking various paths toward application modernization. Then, as this course begins to conclude, you will learn how to manage your IT projects as you move toward a Web-enabled environment.
