Ep. 12 - Ten Things I've Learned
Manage episode 314519109 series 3007154
Here it is - the end (of season 1 ... no worries, we're back in January 2022). In this episode we are mixing up the format a bit and are talking about the 10 things that we learned in 25 years of architecture and process management.
Approach / strategy segment
Let's talk about the bigger picture, the why and larger setup. What are the thoughts that get organizations started?
- Why: You’ll end up paying for it somehow. End of the line in people or risk.
- Don't do a "big effort upfront"
- Develop and create in releases / have a release plan
- Processes and architectures need to be measured
Organizational segment
Architectures win and fail with the people. If they don't want to cooperate or be involved you will fail.
- It's the people, stupid
- Do not separate areas of your architecture into different groups
- Risk & Controls folks are your friends
"How-to" segment
Once you get started the task of developing an architecture seems daunting. This segment has a few tips to make it more manageable.
- Start small but don't settle on the lowest denominator - choose a tool and have a minimum set of artifact requirements
- Have the full lifecycle in mind and don't get distracted by the latest tech
- When developing models do this in multiple iterations (esp. processes)
