I am an Enterprise Architect, which can be a bit of a problem when communicating with people, since very few people know what EA is or what we do. Fortunately Brenda Michelson comes through with a detailed posting on
IT Linchpin 2006: The (Business-Driven) Enterprise Architect
CIOs are determined to invest wisely: in strategies, technology, and people that create an environment for business and IT agility, while keeping project expenditures and run rates in check. Some of the strategies include (but aren’t limited to) service-oriented architecture (SOA), event-driven architecture (EDA), process-based architecture, federated information, enterprise integration, and open source adoption.
At the start of 2006, as IT folks are formulating their hiring plans and professional development plans, I wanted to highlight a critical role for 2006: the enterprise architect. That is, the enterprise architect who practices Business-Driven Architecture.
