Wrapping Up

In this chapter, we’ve introduced three adoption stories. In the icanmakeitbetter story, an acquisition, you learned that adoption is a political problem. Though new language adopters speak in glowing terms about the finished product, you saw how upper management and talented developers perceive the real risks. The Bleacher Report migration showed what kind of rewards are possible if you’re careful. The Plataformatec experience showed how adoption stories are important, with critical similarities we can mine.

Now you are ready to begin in earnest. Turn the page and we’ll begin with Part I!
