Beyond the Hype: Enterprise Architecture's impact on Business Value. Technology Architecture Best Practices

      Аннотация: It is often said that the only constant in life is change. Over the last decade, the landscape of business and information technology (IT) has evolved extensively. Organisations operate in a complex, highly dynamic environment, driven by technological advances, disruptive innovations, regulatory changes, and globalisation. Most organizations try and predict the future, and then based on those predictions, build a ridged IT ecosystem. The secret sauce lies in architecture to drive strategy. This provides a more evolutionary approach where new technologies can be incrementally added, snapped in and snapped out. Enterprise Architecture (EA) is an instrument that can be used to drive innovation, reduce system complexity, achieve business-IT alignment, improve system integration and gain strategic competitiveness. This book articulates technology architecture best practices and the forms of business value that could be attained.
