November 21, 2019 Dormain Drewitz

Ahead of their January 23 webinar, Dormain sat down with Viraj Naik, Lead Solutions Architect at Travelers Insurance, and Rohit Kelaure, Principal Solutions Architect at Pivotal. We talked about why and how the team at Travelers modernized a workload off of the mainframe on to  .NET Core running on Pivotal Platform. Tune in to learn about why the team needed more scaling flexibility, how they overcame performance challenges, and how they used Domain Driven Design (and RabbitMQ!) to arrive at the right number of microservices.
