Alin Ingis at the Chief Architect blog recently took time to discuss the third part of what he believes as the enterprise architecture cycle, the migration planning state.
He believes there are two types of migration plans:
- A formal transformation program – this will typically be a major replacement or upgrade of the IT landscape that underpins major business change
- A set of policies that steers IT change
However, there are always things that do not fall into the categories listed above. He took time to highlight the different types of business cycles that need to be observed so that they don’t disturb the practices being put into place: business cycles and business events. The three types of business cycles that Alin highlighted were: annual financial cycles, business planning cycles, and seasonal sales cycles. Companies always need to pay attention to business events, as they can occasionally put stress on some of the business processes and supporting systems.
