What is IT Architecture?
A blueprint that explains how all the Information Technology and Management
elements work together as a whole
Provides explicit description of the current and desired relationships among
business and management processes and Information Technology
IT Architecture contains two elements:
An Enterprise Architecture
A Technical Reference Model and Standards Profile

Implementing an IT Enterprise Architecture

Create IT Architecture team
Get management’s support and commitment to the IT Architecture process
Take a snapshot (baseline) of what currently exists
Determine where the Organization wants to be in the next three to five years
Develop a blueprint that explains how all the IT elements work together as a whole.
Determine the gaps between the current baseline and the future vision
Develop a plan and budget for bridging the gaps and reaching the IT goals
Identify and accomplish early success projects that will create buy-in
Update annually to accommodate strategic and budget plans.

IT Architecture Describes:
The way Work activities are organized and the Locations where the work is
carried out
The Information Sets/Databases needed to perform the work
The Applications/Software that capture and manipulate the information sets
The Technology Infrastructure (hardware, network and communications)
needed to run the applications
    1. Define IT Vision , Objectives and Pinciples
    2. Characterize IT Beseline
    3. Create IT Target Architecture
    4.  Identify  immediate and Future  opportunities & Perform Gap Analysis
    5. Develop Migration Options
    6. Implement IT target Architecture     
    7. Continously Review and Update IT Enterprise Architecture      .
