Architecture Management

Abstract

SummaryArchitecture management plays a key role in the sustainable success of managed evolution. Architecture management defines the target architecture, a number of models, a set of technical standards and guiding principles for the evolution of the system. It defines and operates processes to evolve architecture standards, to communicate them to the organization and to ensure their implementation. Strong review activities on projects enforce adherence to the standards. Architecture metrics finally allow the progress of key indicators to be measured. A federated architecture organization is essential for powerful architecture management in a very large organization.
