Is your organization planning, initiating or undergoing a digital transformation initiative? Then you know how important architecture and technology is to building a sustainable foundation. Yet so much has changed in the past 2 or 3 years that it’s hard to know what that should look like anymore. The environment is now part of a larger business ecosystem. Scale, speed and scope are greatly expanded. Business architecture is different. Information and data architecture are different. Application architecture is different. Technology architecture is different. Security architecture is different. And, how they all fit together is different too.

This workshop answers two key questions:

  1. What does architecture for digital transformation look like?
  2. How can you keep up to speed on all the changes that implies?

This workshop briefly explores the requirements for the new digital economy, and then describes the new “Digital Business Platform” necessary to meet those requirements and sustain success. Continuing from there, it lays out the overall architecture needed to create that platform and goes into detail about the new business, information, application, technology, performance, and security architectures that comprise it.  A detailed case study is woven throughout the workshop to illustrate the platform, architectural tradeoffs, and a wide variety of work products across all domains. Interactive exercises will give attendees an opportunity to use the new techniques in real time.

All public courses are available as in-house training. Contact us for more information.
