The evolution of the Architecture of Enterprises (AKA Enterprise Architecture) Leo Barella
We are in the era of competitive advantage through smart information and analytics. Process automation and leveraging transactional systems is a "thing of the past". To advance organizations need to start designing their architecture leveraging microservices and focus on data management / analytics efficiency.
Did you know? Implementing ITSM can improve the effectiveness of IT functions by over 62%.
As there continues to be a global shift towards managing more and more data, and housing data in the cloud, many companies are looking to manage their IT budgets closer and sustaining their infrastructure operations. Many studies have provided data on how IT Operational costs eventually decrease over time, but there are still initial costs, and costs to upgrade, scale and sustain.
Until recently, most technical infrastructure components, devices, applications, etc. resided within the organization in which they served. Since the industry has moved to a more virtual model, data, technology, infrastructure services and even applications can now exist in the cloud. With that, there is a need to clearly understand exactly what is being stored in the cloud and how is it being managed.
Areas covered:
1. Understanding importance of ITSM
2. Delivering and managing IT services
3. The value of IT to the business and the service provider
4. Maintaining stability while allowing for change
5. Organizing to improve IT support operations
6. The processes underlying Service Operations
7. What to manage when interfacing with Cloud Service Providers

Your Challenge
Risk is an unavoidable part of IT. And what you don't know, can hurt you. The question is, do you tackle risk head-on or leave it to chance?
Get a handle on risk management quickly using Info-Tech's methodology and reduce unfortunate IT surprises.
Our Advice
Critical Insight
1. IT risk is business risk.
Every IT risk has business implications. Create an IT risk management program that shares risk accountability with the business.
2. Risk is money.
It’s impossible to make intelligent decisions about risks without knowing what they’re worth.
3. You don’t know what you don’t know.
And what you don’t know can hurt you – so find out. To find hidden risks, you need a structured approach.
Impact and Result
Stop leaving IT risk to chance. Transform your ad hoc IT risk management processes into a formalized, ongoing program and increase risk management success by 53%.
Take a proactive stance against IT threats and vulnerabilities by identifying and assessing IT’s greatest risks before they happen.
Involve key stakeholders including the business senior management team to gain buy-in and to focus on IT risks that matter most to the organization.
Share accountability for IT risk with business stakeholders and have them weigh-in on prioritizing investments in risk response activities.

Creating IT Value-A Better Way to Make IT Investment DecisionsScottMadden, Inc.
All IT organizations are resource constrained—demand exceeds supply. Organizations need criteria to decide which projects warrant allocation of high-value constrained resources. This is the second in a series on maximizing IT investment value.
Your Challenge
Infrastructure, by focusing on the reliability, availability, and serviceability of existing platforms, is perceived as a cost center rather than a business enabler.
Business stakeholders look to external vendors, rather than Infrastructure, to exploit emerging technologies. This leads to duplication of effort, inconsistent standards, and ineffective IT governance.
Infrastructure directors are unable to draw a line showing how their activities directly support the overall business goals.
Our Advice
Critical Insight
Think of the roadmap as a service, not a product. Its value is inversely proportional to the time since its last update.
Alignment perception issues can be addressed by having the infrastructure practice formally engage and communicate with business stakeholders.
Shadow IT can provide business-ready initiatives that need only to be tweaked to align with Infrastructure’s internal goals.
Impact and Result
This blueprint will help you build:
A formal channel and way of communicating value bottom-up and top-down between IT and the executive team.
A methodology to prioritize and create projects that generate business value.
A tool that can produce multiple outputs of value for different audiences using the same data.
An ongoing roadmap process, rather than a static document, that is able to adjust and react to evolving business circumstances.
Solution Architecture And (Robotic) Process Automation SolutionsAlan McSweeney
Automation is a technology trend IT architects should be aware of and know how to respond to business requests as well as recommend automation technologies and solutions where appropriate. Automation is a bigger topic than just RPA (Robotic Process Automation).
Automation solutions, like all other technology solutions, should be subject to an architecture and design process. There are many approaches to and options for the automation of business activities. Too often automation solutions are tactical applications layered over existing business systems
The objective of all IT solutions is to automate manual business processes and their activities to a certain extent. The requirement for RPA-type applications arises in part because of automation failures within existing applications or the need to automate the interactions with or integrations between separate, possibly legacy, applications.
One of the roles of IT architecture is to always seek to take the wider architectural view and to ensure that solutions are designed and delivered within a strategic framework to avoid, as much as is practical and realistic, short-term tactical solutions and approaches that lead to an accumulation of design, operations and support debt. Tactical solutions will always play a part in the organisation’s solution landscape.
The objective of these notes is to put automation into its wider and larger IT architecture context while accepting the need for tactical approaches in some instances.
These notes cover the following topics:
• Solution And Process Automation – The Wider Technology And Approach Landscape
• Business Processes, Business Solutions And Automation
• Organisation Process Model
• Strategic And Tactical Automation
• Deciding On The Scope Of Automation
• Digital Strategy, Digital Transformation And Automation
• Specifying The Automation Solution
• Business Process Model and Notation (BPMN)
• Sample Business Process – Order To Cash
• RPA (Robotic Process Automation)

Slides from a presentation given by Paul Turner to meetings of IIBA UK on 16 July and 12 August 2014.
Much has been written about technical and solution architectures, without due attention being given to how these work together with the Business Architecture.
It is easy to believe that those who are involved in business analysis, requirements definition and systems modelling do not need to consider the Business Architecture at all. This could not be further from the truth. This talk explains the rationale behind Business Architecture, what its main components are and why Business Analysts should ensure that they understand it and the influence it is likely to have on their work.
