The Guide to Practical and Pragmatic IT Architecture Design

About this Site and Author

About this site

This is a site about how to analyze, design build, test and deploy IT architecture for simple as well as complex solutions. An IT architecture, system architecture or Technology architecture are all terminologies that relate to the underlying architecture of an application, IT solution or platform. 

It is intended for companies that start with designing technology architectures in more structured and consistent manner and meant for all sizes of companies. It guides readers in what, why and how to design a proper IT architecture. Additionally, it provides processes and templates to help and assist drawing up blueprints.

This is not an academic effort or a theoretical approach to designing architectures, but focused on practicality, real project implementations, daily discussions and company interactions with pragmatism. It is a methodology, model and approach. I have implemented this model and parts of it in my day to day work and accumulated my knowledge and experience to this book.It is the result of my 25 years of consulting experience with over 100+ companies in 35 countries. You can find several real experiences and information from projects where I lead and implemented the architecture design.
