Enterprise Architecture 2.0
Working in the platform and architecture department in a big cooperation, it is an everyday challenges to bring the platform development standards and architecture to all local subsidiaries around the globe. Therefore the following comparison table by James McGovern is quite interesting for me (found via Benda Michelson):
| EA 1.0 | EA 2.0 |
|---|---|
| Abstract Authority | Community |
| Project Oriented Management | Strong Technical Leadership |
| Comprehensive Documentation | Working Software |
| Following a Plan | Responding to Change |
| Governance | Stewardship |
| Rationalization | Innovation |
| Outsourcing | Open Sourcing |
| NDA | Declarative Living |
| Large Analyst Firms | Small Analyst Firms |
| Management | Leadership |
| ERP for IT | Burndown |
| CMMI | Agile Methods |
| Best Practices | Practical Considerations |
| Reference Architectures | Shared Vision |
| Time Accounting | Functional Delivery Accounting |
| Buy vs. Build | Buy vs. Build vs. Open |
| Project Oriented | Service Oriented |
| Politics | Diplomacy |
| Polarization | Dialog |
| Buy-in | Enlistment |
| Restrictions | Rights |
| Cathedral Style Development | Bazaar Style Development |
| Process | People |
Guess which one I do prefer!
