ITM Chapter 11
Enterprise Architecture (EA) - the plans for how an organization builds, deploys,
uses, and shares its data, processes and IT assets
Enterprise Architect - person grounded in technology, fluent in business, patient
diplomat, and provides the important bridge between IT and the business
Goals of enterprise architecture
Reduce costs (improve productivity), improve customer satisfaction, create
competitive advantages, generate growth, generate new revenue streams,
optimize the supply chain
Top international telecommunications issues
Network (operational efficiency, different networks, controlling data)
Regulatory issues (transborder data flow restrictions, regulations,
international politics)
Technology and country-oriented issues (network infrastructure, integration
of technologies, tariff structures)
Data Architecture - identifies where and how important data, like customer
records, are maintained and secured.
Backup - an exact copy of a system’s information.
Recovery - the ability to get a system up and running in the event of a system crash
or failure and includes restoring the information backup.
Fault tolerance - a computer system designed that in the event a component fails, a
backup component or procedure can immediately take its place with no loss of
service.
Failover - a backup operational mode in which the functions of a computer
component is assumed by another when the first becomes unavailable.
Disaster recovery plan - a detailed process for recovering information or an IT
system in case of a disaster such as a fire or flood.
Disaster recovery cost curve - charts the cost of the unavailability of information
and technology, and, the cost of recovering from a disaster over time.
Hot Site – a separate, fully equipped facility that the company moves into after a
disaster.
Cold Site- a separate, facility lacking computer equipment where employees can
move after a disaster.
Business Continuity Planning—indicates how an organization will restore
interrupted critical functions within a pre-determined time.
Security: Preventing unauthorized access, copying, deletion and modification of
data, ensuring continuity of operations, and managing user access.
