Great question, we definitely took a hard look on if we should transform our tech stack or not (and decided to do it) - to really answer this question though, you would need to understand our previous stack, what was holding us back, and where we wanted to go. I'm not sure if reading about our previous stack and why we moved is an interesting blog post or not :).

It definitely is. There is a serious business cost to front end trendiness, so it's good to hear the legitimate business cases for these switches vs. "it's what the devs want to code on."

Well I think a blogpost like that would shine a light on this kind of issue from one of the bigger companies in the world. It will be good for the image as well as most believe companies like Walmart are a big layer of stodge, like many other enterprise, where MBA CIO's say no to everything and when you finally get approval, the Oracle head DBA makes sure it will not work anyway.

I believe it would be an interesting blog post - the amount of sheer "yeah we need xyz tech for more oomph" decisions made within business sector by managers who are not truly capable of judging the implications of said tech is quite something.
