“Too object-oriented”
I come from a strong OO background, and I have recently started working in an organization which, although the code is written in Java, has a lot less emphasis on good OO design than what I am used to. I have been told that I introduce “too much abstraction”, and that I should instead code the way it has always been done, which is a procedural style in Java.

What aspects of “maintainability” can influence choice of IS implementation technology?
Background: I’m an apprentice and am handling the project of developing a particular IS-System. Currently I’m only managing the requirements analysis and the information-processes design, but as a Software Developer, I would also like to implement the concept as an actual Web-Portal.
When it comes to choice of technology, I personally would like to build my front-end based on JavaScript Frameworks(jQuery, Bootstrap, DataTables.Net, …) which offer high front-end implementation flexibility and nice out-of-box modern design, and wire these to .NET MVC in the code-behind. The people around me, who haven’t written a line of code in what seems like decades, all fret about difficulty to maintain such a system, in comparison to using .NET Controls and sticking to the MS Web-Site development Package. So whenever I try to bring up, that I could build a nice-looking, user-friendly, modern portal, once we’re done with the first concept-phase, I just get concerned looks and a mumble about “maintainability” and “we’d prefer trying to use Sharepoint Analysis Services connected to our DB”.
