Description

Enterprises and Enterprise Architectures are complex animals. When Enterprises adopt agile, it brings on its own unique challenges. Our Agile teams (typically the architect or the senior developer) have to ensure that all the pieces of the Enterprise puzzle remain intact while they travel the agile way. This includes ensure high quality while delivering frequently, follow enterprise specific architecture patterns while the architecture evolves, take care of non functional requirements such as security, performance, availability etc. Agile also brings us the risk of applications being support's nightmare, though it is developers' delight when it comes to documentation. As an architect, we needed to think about knowledge retention within the Enterprise, knowledge transition to support teams. We also have to help the agile teams to scale the agility while they work with traditionally not-so-agile support teams such as infrastructure, application support teams of the enterprise. During my talk, I would like to dive deep into these challenges that we face everyday, and the practices that we have followed over last few years while adopting and sustaining agile in our Enterprise. I would also like to introduce a few next practices that we are playing with to sustain the enterprise IT agility. I would like to conduct this session in the form of various examples, challenges from my experience, and share how we as an agile group worked towards being agile!
