Will develop and simplify the situation - the company was a client-server database system on X, they hire a new programmer who believes that X - garbage, and nothing but, say, Cache database or a Y, not save the Russian revolution.

And from that moment and start issues common to all.
a) Is determined by the business requirements to the points that are not satisfied with the current system?.
