Application portfolio management can optimize an enterprise's future spending on its current business applications. Using APM techniques, business value and technology risk/effectiveness of applications can be assessed based on our "Tolerate, Invest, Migrate and Eliminate" approach. Systematic assessments should include business stakeholders and be revisited as the business and technology change. We provide useful guidelines to effect graceful application retirements and minimize unintended consequences.

  • How can AD organizations best begin gathering the right application portfolio information?
  • How can application portfolio knowledge help structure application portfolio decision making?
