What information is displayed in What is our technical debt?

The visualization is a Gantt chart that shows the lifecycles of all applications and the components that they use. Here's how to interpret the information:

• The first level shows  applications. The Strategic Application column shows a checkmark if the attribute is set to Yes for the application.
• The timeline shows a green bar visualizing the active period (start date - end date) of the application. If an application lifecycle is defined, lifecycle phases will be displayed in a multi-colored bar below the green bar:
  •   Plan: The application has been identified and evaluated for possible use in company.
  •   Implementation: Activities are underway to prepare the application for production.
  •   Production: The application is being used in company.
  •   Sunset: The application is still available but is not intended to be used for daily work.
  •   Read-Only: The application is no longer used but is available for reasons of documentation and compliance.
  •   Retired: The application should no longer be used.
• The second level shows the  components that the application runs on. The End Date Conflict column highlights if the end date of a component will be reached before the end date of the application that depends on the component.
• The timeline shows a grey bar visualizing the period between the component's start and end dates. If a component lifecycle is defined, lifecycle phases will be displayed by a multi-colored bar below the grey bar:
  •   Manufacturer Supported: The technology is mature and is recommended for use in a production environment.
  •   Manufacturer Extended Support: The technology is still available but should be avoided for use in a production environment.
• The blue vertical line indicates the current date.
