The Agile Architecture Revolution: How Cloud Computing, REST-Based SOA, and Mobile Computing Are Changing Enterprise IT
Written by Jason Bloomberg, the leading expert on architecting agility for the enterprise
Introducing Agile Architecture
Deconstructing Agile, and rebuilding the concept in the context of organizations and their strategic goals, is what this first chapter of, The Agile Architecture Revolution is all about. It’s about changing the Agile belief system and “making a case that the Agile Architecture Revolution is a true revolution”—and Mr. Bloomberg puts it, “No cliché, no dogma, no commonly held belief [about Agile] is too sacred for us to skewer, barbeque, and relish with a nice Chianti.”
Once you’ve deconstructed that belief system by holding it up to the light so you can see through the weak spots, you can learn from that experience and, ultimately, architect a better belief system—one that helps you achieve your business goals faster and more efficiently. Mr. Bloomberg hopes to “open your eyes to new ways of thinking about technology, about business, and about change itself.”
