IASA’s Definition:
An IT Architect is a Technology Strategist
for the Business
Business Technology Strategy
The skills required for an architect to identify, design, plan and support a technology environment that provides the basis of competitive advantage for the company.
IT Environment
Skills in the functional and procedural aspects of technology organization to ascertain solution and organizational maturity.
It’s how we run things (maintenance & support) and how we create new things (forward engineering).
Quality Attributes
A quality attribute is a non-functional characteristic of a component or a system. It represents a cross-cutting architectural concern for a system or system of systems.
DesignDesign skills are an architect’s primary tool in delivering architecture strategy and product to the business.
Good design is justifications, reasons, and trade off considerations…
it encompasses capturing the decisions made.
Human Dynamics
Human Dynamics encompasses the skills associated with managing and influencing people and their interrelationships in the context of an IT project or environment.
