Description
Every major enterprise has a significant installed base of existing software systems that reflect the tangled IT architectures that
result from decades of patches and failed replacements. Most of these systems were designed to support business architectures that have
changed dramatically. At best, these systems hinder agility and competitiveness and, at worst, can bring critical business functions
to a halt.
Architecture-Driven Modernization (ADM) restores the value of entrenched systems by capturing and retooling various
aspects of existing application environments, allowing old infrastructures to deliver renewed value and align effectively with enterprise
strategies and business architectures.
This book provides a practical guide to organizations seeking ways to understand and leverage
existing systems as part of their information management strategies. It includes an introduction to ADM disciplines, tools, and standards
as well as a series of scenarios outlining how ADM is applied to various initiatives. Drawing upon lessons learned from real modernization
projects, it distills the theory and explains principles, processes, and best practices for every industry.
Audience
Computer and Information Systems Managers responsible for managing application portfolios and information architecture, Enterprise Architects
responsible for defining information architecture and setting strategy for achieving that strategy, Computer Software Engineers who research,
design, develop, and test operating systems-level software and, compilers, Business operations professionals seeking ways to make their
organizations more adaptable to changing market demands.
