Gregor Hohpe - Enterprise Strategist at AWS
ABSTRACT
Architects in the enterprise are often regarded as ivory tower residents who bestow their utopian plans upon project teams in the form of colorful diagrams that bear little to no resemblance to reality. The most suspicious in this group are often the “Enterprise Architects” who are perceived as being furthest from actual technical problems.
However, large-scale IT operation and transformation require transparency across hundreds or thousands of applications running on all sorts of middleware in data centers around the globe. The very enterprise architects are likely the only ones who stand a chance to bring transparency into such an environment and who can direct IT investments in the hundreds of millions of Euros towards modernization and run-cost reduction. This sounds a lot more exciting and valuable than drawing pictures!
This session takes a serious but light-hearted look at the role of enterprise architects in modern IT organizations. Gregor is a recognized thought leader on asynchronous messaging and service-oriented architectures. He is widely known as co-author of the seminal book “Enterprise Integration Patterns” and as frequent speaker at conferences around the world. He is an active member of the IEEE Software editorial advisory board. He has documented his experience as an architect driving IT transformation in the eBook "37 Things One Architect Knows" [...]

One of the best talks I have ever listened to. It is like a wormhole one-hour shortcut to get to know about enterprise architecture. :)

I actually worked at Allianz in Vienna on software for car insurance so I can tell you Gregor is right. There are many very interesting business activities that are going on in Allianz and must be supported by the software.

does anyone else think it feels like roger federer teaching about enterprise architecture.

[@user-eo4yi8no4r]

we can't just depend on the very authority one.

[@osten_petersson]

again an IT guy takes a facade an call it architecture - just stop - we need to find our own metaphors instead of brutalising other professions
