Agile at 20: The Failed Rebellion

I’ve seen countless systems built where technology choices where more exciting than economical. Why build something in c# on top of SQL-server in six months when it can be done in three years with micro services, Kotlin, Cassandra, Kafka, mongoDb etc…

For real. That why I’ve focused my consulting on pure Microsoft stack at insurance companies. My knowledge _acumulates_ for each assignment, rather than having to start over with the tech du jour.

Java, .NET and C++ over here.

Get to rewrite the micro services, Kotlin, Cassandra, Kafka, mongoDb hardly documented, back into C# on top of SQL Server when the teams have left for the new jobs after haved pimped up their CV.

To be fair, this can also be because one random developer suggests this, management hears a fancy new term for their buzzword bingo, and they decree that that tech shall henceforth be used.
