How to bring TOGAF to life: How to develop a complete picture of an organization's baseline architecture for TOGAF - How to bring TOGAF to life The Open Group Architecture Framework (TOGAF) is a useful vehicle that Enterprise Architects can use to understand a business, envision a solution and govern its implementation. Even experienced users can find it cumbersome and the available tools seem to exaggerate the effort it demands, for insufficient return. This blog aims to give architects a chance to discuss some of the ways to bring TOGAF to life while developing enterprise-wide solutions for multi-national organizations.

Understanding Effective Change Management - Effective change management becomes even more critical in a down economy, writes ITSM Watch columnist George Spafford of Pepperweed Consulting.

The change management process is critical at this time, more than ever, because studies have shown that 78%-80% of network availability problems stem from human error. more...

Home Page of Dr. Ravi Batra - What should we do? The current problem is not with banks and financial institutions, but in the housing market. So the remedy should be applied there and nowhere else. There should be a partial bailout of harried homeowners who cannot pay their mortgages. They should be penalized somewhat for their reckless borrowing but still rescued for the sake of the economy. If homeowners are able to make timely payments for their home loans, the banks will be paid and their loans will be secure. The banks will have a healthy balance sheet and will not need any rescue. The housing-market will also stabilize. If some banks still fail, then the FDIC will come to their rescue. The total cost of the home-owner bailout will be less than $500 billion, a fraction of what the government has promised to spend on its multifaceted bailouts—Bear Stearns, Freddie Mac, Fannie May, AIG and now the entire financial sector. more...

Steve Ballmer talks up the cloud

I couple of days ago I had a talk with one of the major IT consultancy companies in the Netherlands. When asked what I thought was one of the big trends in IT. Without hesitating I answered that in my opinion that was Cloud computing. It seems this trend is now really taking off.

When I was at the Google office a couple of years ago there was an interesting picture on a whiteboard in one of the meeting rooms. This picture was a visualisation of Google OS, long before the launch of Google Apps !.

So you could say that now Microsoft is coming on board as well we are heading to a new Operating System. Windows Cloud ?

HealthVault

October 2007 Microsoft launched this product , but I came across it recently through the MS download notification newsletter which a receive every saturday.

What is it ?

With HealthVault MS has created a platform for registration your medical data. You can decide to share this data with your doctor etc. This data can also be collected from all kind of devices like bloodpressure meters etc. by means of a HealthVault Desktop application.

The service is only offered in the US at the moment. I predict that this service will be very populair based on the success of products like the Nintendo Wii Fit.

Update:

Of course Google has a similar product, called GoogleHealth. I almost signed up untill I saw the User agreement.

SOA Governance

SOA Governance

The purpose of Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) governance is to ensure that the investments in SOA deployments made by the organization deliver the anticipated benefits both in the short term and throughout their entire lifetime. SOA is intended to be a long-term architecture, so it is reasonable to expect that some of the resources being deployed now will be in use for decades.

SOA governance therefore entails design-time procedures and best practices that deliver services with the best business fit, and with due consideration to the reuse of services by subsequent projects.

Key issues:

• SOA cannot be planned and implemented by IT on its own, but must be a collaborative effort between business and IT.
• Technology-driven SOA projects are unlikely to enjoy the degree of reuse that SOA should enable, due to the lack of emphasis on designing services around business fit.
• Although supporting technologies will be needed, it is more important to put in place the organizational structure and to ensure the right people are put in the right roles.
• The resources dedicated to SOA governance need to be kept proportionate to the extent of the SOA deployment, the rate of change experienced, and the degree of risk to which it is exposed.
