Overview

 

Every decade we see massive changes in the IT industry. In the 80s we saw desktop computing flourish, and progressed to a client server model in the 90s. Mobile computing grew quickly in 2000 and beyond. 2017 presents a variety of technologies that may deliver IT efficiencies on a grand scale. Technologies and trends such as AI and Advanced Machine Learning, Intelligent Apps, Intelligent Things, Virtual and Augmented Reality, Digital Twin, Blockchain and Distributed Ledgers, Conversational System, Mesh App and Service Architecture, Digital Technology Platforms, Adaptive Security Architecture., and others may be game changers. How will you capitalize on these technologies, but more importantly how will your Enterprise Architecture embrace the digital world to support all the changes?

8:00am – 8:30am: Registration and Continental Breakfast

8:30am-9:20am: Getting EA a seat at the C-Level Table

 

Gordon Cooper, Head of Customer Success, North Mega; Former VP Technology Risk/EA, AIG

 

As the competition to attract customers becomes more intense, companies need to quickly increase the pace of innovation, putting them in a constant race to make the enterprise more agile, productive and efficient. According to Gartner, 70% of companies are restarting or renewing their Enterprise Architecture efforts. They are moving from a traditional EA role of building and documenting models, definitions, maps which have traditionally resulted in low value; to a more modern approach that focuses on business outcomes that result in high value. Gordon will share strategies and real world examples of how EA has gotten a seat at the C-Level table by moving their enterprise architecture efforts from noisy to useful to trusted to influential.

1:20pm-2:10pm: Use Case of EA Safeguarding Digital Transformation

 

Peter Chen, Director, Enterprise Architecture, Stericycle

 

Background:

  • Engaging the stakeholders, on “What to do, what not to do. What can be done better…”
  • EA worked through hurdles reaching for “repeatable” and “defined” process maturity levels
  • Enable and safeguard the ongoing digital transformation

 

Approach:

  • Define, simplify, and continuous improvement of existing EA processes, to streamline planning to execution
  • Prioritize business requirement, and architecture capabilities to deliver business outcome
  • Build and publicize EA artifacts, based on organizational and leadership strategy and vision
  • Create, Manage, and Govern the architecture roadmap. Facilitate architecture collaborations across disciplines

2:40pm-3:30pm: Building an AWS Data Pipeline by Example

 

Patrick Ryan, Executive Vice President, Emerging Technologies, SPR Consulting
Kevin Young, Associate Cloud Consultant, SPR Consulting

 

Imagine you wake up tomorrow, and its 2025. By this time, 75% of the global population will be connected and interacting with data, and 49% of the world’s stored data will reside in the public cloud environment. By 2025, each connected person will have at least one data interaction every 18 seconds. Understanding how to create cloud-based data pipelines will be vital for any business. This presentation will demonstrate how to create a data pipeline with AWS Services from the ground up and show an example of ingesting data all the way to data visualization.
