About this listen

In this episode of The Cloud Native Attitude, Jamie and Ian take on the myth of the “blank slate” - the idea that starting fresh will magically solve your software problems. Spoiler: it won’t. With insights and real-world examples, they explain why legacy systems aren’t just technical baggage but often valuable, misunderstood assets. They break down when (and if) it makes sense to start from scratch, how to spot unnecessary rewrites, and why experimenting before scaling is key.
