Legacy is when you have a shell script call an ant script that calls shell scripts that call make scripts that fire c precompile requests to a remote database. (Of course it's now packaged in docker because it runs on a version of linux that makes the infosec guys come visit you at your desk)

Oh and every subsystem shares dependency references that are only used by one subsystem.

Oh, and the C includes are wrong and overwritten by the shell scripts and make files.

GOOD LUCK

OH, and your team is too scared to use the simplified build because there are too many things they don't understand, even though you did hash comparisons for every built artifact.
