Yes, IT is a key part of EA…
the technology around IT…
and uses of IT - mobile…
…social (sort-of)…
…and local, too…
Yet what isenterprise-architecture, really?
…it’s the architectureof the enterprise.
…so everything here is part ofthe enterprise-architecture, too…
(because technology is an enablerthat makes the enterprise possible)
“It’s not not about the technology”(Andrew McAfee)
but technology is only a means;whereas enterprise is the ends
- don’t mix them up!
Enterprise-architecture addressescommon themes that must pervade
through every part of the enterprise.
