When planning refactoring across a portfolio of 200 COBOL programs, what should be determined first?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
When you're planning a 200-program COBOL portfolio, you start by mapping the modernization wave sequence. That tells you which dependency clusters to tackle first based on coupling and risk, so you can deliver value incrementally while managing cross-wave dependencies.
Full Explanation
Wave sequencing by dependency clusters, coupling profile, and business risk comes first, enabling incremental value while managing cross-wave dependencies. License cost targets, CICS transaction IDs, and exact Java class/package design are later details, not the first portfolio plan.
