When choosing a web interface the speed is fundamental.
Response times well under a second is possible using RPG directly to the
Apache.
Fast response is not only appreciated by the users, also allows more
transactions without expanding the server, it also reduces costs when
using the cloud.

It's been 25 years plus since CGI programming has been a viable option.
And it still is. Even longer since ILE has been available to try to
encapsulate functions.

The other side of the coin is, to me at least, is that users used to the
"fast entry" of green screens wouldn't want a web update, but would
eventually use it after the initial shock. I know a lot of the
applications I use for business are all web based now. At first I hated it
(and in some cases still do) but I grow to tolerate them.

Retrofitting a single program with a modern UI is one thing, but what
about
thousands? I see that as the biggest hurdle. You've got teams with the
capacity to maintain and enhance the current program suite, but not
enough
to refactor everything.
