Technology Roadmaps
Business drives the Enterprise Architecture which in turn provides the lay
of the land for Technology Roadmaps.
Technology Roadmaps exist for each technological aspect
supporting the enterprise. The
actual focus areas do vary based on companies needs.
Technical Roadmaps in areas such as:
- Data management
- Content management
- Telephony
- Data center
- Messaging
- Servers
- Personal Computing
Provide the enterprise with managed purpose driven technology
development in support of the enterprise.
Each Technology Roadmap provides it’s perspective of the
following:
- A consolidated view of the
enterprise's business driven technology needs.
- A consolidated view of
business drivers, trends, challenges and opportunities.
- Short and long term
technology objectives.
- Transition steps outlining
organization and process change to move the enterprise from the
current state to a long-term application and infrastructure
architecture. An executable project based roadmap to support business
objectives with technology.
Each Technology Roadmap iteration provides guidance for
technology introduction, renewal and removal in the Enterprise.
The organization must be committed to renewing each Technology Roadmap on a
regular basis, typically annually to correspond with the budget process.
