02/20/21 • 36 min
The most feared project in the ecosystem: the re-architecture. Restarting from scratch. Doomsday. CJ & The Duke discuss their past encounters with these ServiceNow projects and provide pragmatic advice on where to start and how to cope. We'll discuss
- Does planning come first or second?
- The Human Roadblock: Not everyone is onboard
- Articulating pain and paradise
- What to do with old data
- Good practices: Ingress documents, process charters, dev standards, vendor standards
- New tools that help: Instance scan, roadmap, catalog builder
Our sponsor, DotWalk.io is the creator of Bootstrap, which reduces months of ATF setup in ServiceNow to the press of a button. Bootstrap was developed by long time ServiceNow employees to automate the population of ATF, rather than replace ATF feature.
