The computer systems development world has borrowed the term "big bang" from physics, to describe the approach in which a big new system is turned on a grand scale, usually simultaneous with the decommissioning (also known as "harvest") of one or more existing systems. This approach is fraught with risk, and is increasingly out of favor, including at my employer. What I am wondering is, is there an accepted term for the opposite of a big bang implementation? I don't think there is. In physics, the opposite is a "big crunch", but I don't think that suits. So I will take a stab...how about "pack of firecrackers", to convey a succession of smaller explosions?
