    Nicely articulated, one of the major issue which we observe is the actual implementation of any plan at ground level where aligning the human resource and mindset becomes a challenge and a key success factor in any architectural success

    • @RajRamesh
      @RajRamesh  2 года назад +1

      Yes, for successful implementation we need to consider many factors. Some of these are deterministic - like how system behave, and some are non-deterministic like how people react to change. Managing all that is the skill of a great implementation manager/team.

    Thank you for the video and for your thoughts. A question I ask myself is: in a cloud-driven company: do you still have enterprise architects or will you only have Cloud architects? How do these roles co-exist and collaborate in the bigger picture?

    • @RajRamesh
      @RajRamesh  3 года назад

      Others can chime in as well. I think these roles will coexist in the near future, but has high potential of merging.

    • @hansmasing
      @hansmasing 3 года назад +1

      The cloud does not keep engineers from making a hairball architecture that is not futureproof or fails when there is some sort of regulatory or other change for the business. Cloud is a tool, not a destination. EA is a living roadmap to a destination that can use multiple tools to accomplish.

  • @mickeyflowers
    @mickeyflowers 5 лет назад +3

    Perfectly explained, now what are the best tools to model this?

    • @RajRamesh
      @RajRamesh  5 лет назад +1

      The tool question is a difficult one because it depends. Without mentioning specific vendors, we can look at what the company is looking to do. A small business for example doesn't need any fancy tools - maybe a spreadsheet/presentation/document/doodling tool will suffice. On the other hand, a huge business might need to formalize their tool set so artifacts can be shared across.
      More than the tools though, I think the mindset is critical. I've worked with either ends of the spectrum and companies in between - and many times we can get away (even at large companies) with doodling on a white board to understand the business model, major capabilities, processes, and the systems that support operations to begin establishing the mindset :-)

    Hi, I recently struggled to explain to the business side why business and IT alignment is actually something to strive for.
    It would be great to hear your thoughts about why it is actually beneficial to align the IT with the business or if you believe otherwise why it actually is not necessary at all.

    • @RajRamesh
      @RajRamesh  4 года назад +5

      Yes Cj M - the alignment is critical because the IT applications have to support the business processes. Simple example: If I want to do taxes (in the US), then its better for me to use TurboTax, even though I could technically use MS Excel. If I use Excel, I'll be wasting a lot of time and energy.
      For larger businesses, this simple problem gets magnified much more. If there is no alignment, you can imagine the implications.

  • @heathgascoigne
    @heathgascoigne 5 лет назад +14

    Nice one Raj 🙌🏼 Good to see the use of Technology Architecture to support the Business Architecture.
    In my experience, it’s Technology Architecture that drives Business and Business Architecture requirements, due to misguided focus on Technology.
    If the Business doesn’t have a need or use for the technology, no matter how ‘cutting edge’ it appears or is sold, it will as you say ‘easily becomes obsolete’. Unfortunately companies are realising that the hard one, hence the high failure rate in digital transformations 😏
