| What is Software Architecture? |
|
Software
architecture is a specialty, which is distinct from
software engineering, programming, and project management.
A Software Architect balances and resolves design forces
from many perspectives, including system stakeholders
and system developers. Software architects are responsible
for a much wider and interesting range of issues (technical,
intuitive, and human factors) than we typically associate
with project management. Software architects create
technical plans that coordinate the work of groups of
programmers, resolving significant system-wide risks
and project/technical inefficiencies. The Software Architect
role is an important career path for lead programmers
and other IT professionals, as an alternative to project
management.

| What is Enterprise Architecture? |
|
EA
is a comprehensive framework used to manage and align
an organization's business processes, Information Technology
(IT) software and hardware, people, operations and projects
with the organization's overall strategy. A strong Enterprise
Architecture process helps to answer basic questions
like: What are the organization's business processes,
and how is IT supporting those processes? ...
The
enterprise architect is responsible for ensuring that
each and every one of a company's IT decisions is made
with its impact on the entire organization kept firmly
in mind. It is the architect who prevents an organization
from investing in a technology that it will eventually
have to replace. It is the architect's job to look for
common business processes throughout an organization
so that the services IT creates can be reused. This
will certainly lead to streamlining and optimum utilization
of resources.
Demand for Enterprise Architecture and system development
is rising in cost effective markets. The roles of Enterprise
Architect, Solution Architect are pure technical career
paths, which lead to top rewards and professional recognition.

| Why Software Architecture? |
|
Whether a structure is built of bricks,
steel or computer code, the process begins with an architect
and client. Together they arrive at a shared vision
- a plan - that the architect guides through the bidding,
construction and implementation phases. The Parthenon
and the Empire State Building were built according to
architectural designs, but the software industry has
been building information skyscrapers without architects.
|
| Why
are more IT professionals getting attracted to this option?
|
For
software professionals interested in the technical sphere,
software & enterprise architect is a sound career
option. Traditionally, as you climb higher in the corporate
ladder, you loose touch with hardcore technical developments.
EA allows a dual career ladder as you can become a senior
level well-compensated professional, and enjoy working
on the technical issues.
The
position of IT architect has become increasingly important
to the ever-changing IT industry, and is one that established
corporations and start-ups are seeking. The job requires
network professionals to acquire new skills. The job
pays well, and opportunities are in fields ranging from
finance to healthcare to retail.

| Idea
behind the 3 day workshop |
|
The
Software Architecture is getting recognized as a critical
element for realizing practical vision of the IT system
for Fortune 2000 companies.
 As
India is gearing to become the base for the product
development firms and new technology companies, This
conference will provide an opportunity to the architects,
program managers, CIOs and CTOs to share knowledge of
innovative software architecture which represents the
next generation of practice for leading technologists
in the software discipline.
This
3 days workshop is focused on enterprise software architecture
as a specialty, which is distinct from software engineering,
programming and project management and very critical
for the enterprise success. The key focus areas include
understanding of EAF (Enterprise Architecture Framework),
Component based product line, Model Driven Architecture
(MDA) and Service-oriented Architecture (SOA) which
are key for the companies to reduce IT costs, ensure
system longevity and enhance productivity.

Our
workshop is about sharing unique lessons learned
upon professional experience. We have discovered
significant commonalities in practical software
architecture knowledge which can be useful across
most software applications. Together, the joint
knowledge of innovative software architects represents
the next generation of practice for leading technologists
in the software discipline.
At
iCMG, we also share these goals with WWISA (a non-profit
organization, the Worldwide Institute of Software
Architecture (http://www.wwisa.org/).
