Aggregated enterprise architecture wisdom
It is always a good idea to express our stated design goals right up front – and use these to guide the inevitable trade-offs and decisions that will need to be made along this journey. So let’s get started with a few design goals in our space based architecture model that combines and integrates distributed caching, content-based distributed messaging, and parallel processing into a powerful architecture within a grid computing framework. 
Recently, I have been initiating a Business Process Management System (BPMS) implementation for a major client in the financial sector. This made me wonder: how can I come up with a set of BPMS-specific, practical quality criteria for successfully impl…

Here below is a list of titles of ongoing projects by students at the IT University.
Most of the students are always interested in speaking with experts and practitioners in their areas, so if you are such and want to speak to students, let me know. If you are looking for a fresh graduate to […]
One of the minor frustrations of the toolmakers’ life – in enterprise-architecture as much as in other fields – is that often we don’t see our tools in action when used by others. I’ve been lucky in that regard in my collaboration with Michael Smith, a consultant in organisational change who works in Mexico and other […]
The following a selected subset of the Tweets and links sent out by attendees and other from the Open Group (TOGAF) conference on enterprise-architecture, IT-security and cloud-computing. Given my own interests, I’ve emphasised enterprise-architecture, but I’ve included many of the others as well. (If you want to see the full set, follow the ‘#ogsdg‘ hashtag […]
The main themes at this week’s Conference are Cybersecurity, Enterprise Architecture, SOA and Cloud Computing. But there are a number of common threads running through it all relating to value delivered to IT customers through open systems; one of those threads is Interoperability. Continue reading →
