Modernizing the Mission Critical with OpenRewrite and AI

In this session, Kito Mann shares practical lessons learned from real-world upgrades and migrations, covering what drives modernisation, why organisations often delay it, and how to choose the right approach when you finally have to move. Kito breaks down common modernisation drivers like security vulnerabilities, end-of-life dependencies, cloud mandates, and even UI/branding pressure, then walks through two major execution strategies: big-bang migrations vs. incremental modernization. Along the way, he highlights the “hidden essentials” that make or break projects, especially QA involvement, risk management, and planning work in layers. A major focus of the talk is how OpenRewrite enables deterministic, auditable code transformations using lossless semantic trees and composable “recipes,” making large-scale changes more consistent than relying solely on AI tools. Kito also explains where AI coding assistants shine and where they still require careful human oversight. Learn more about Jakarta EE: https://jakarta.ee/
