Architects will spend less time defining ‘intentional’ architecture This doesn’t mean architects won’t produce any diagrams, but enabling the best technology decisions to be made is where the value of architecture will be realised in an Agile EnterpriseĢ. The need for Architects to support this goes up. Be it navigating emerging technologies, legacy system replacement, or completing post M&A consolidation roadmaps as Agility scales, the need to make these architectural decisions in a timely manner goes up. Reaching consensus on complex decisions involving diverse stakeholders with competing views is where the architect is irreplaceable. It’s the organisational decision-making process that the architect must drive before an artefact is delivered, however, that really matters. There is a misconception that architects spend all of their time ‘doing’ architecture and producing complex diagrams. Architects will be less involved with delivering things but more involved with ensuring the right things are delivered In this blog we will discuss four ways Enterprise Agility will redefine Architecture. These outcomes remain as critical as ever, but how they are reached will be vastly different. Whether a company is Waterfall, Agile or Hybrid, architects will always be required to support technology decisions and align IT to business strategy. Despite the apparent threat, Enterprise Agility does not spell the end of Architecture but in fact can be a catalyst for change and disruption.
