Architecture Management between historically grown IT and agile development


At the 2nd LeanIX EA Connect Day in Berlin Aneta Nowobilska and Andreas Joebges, both from Axel Springer, presented a type of architecture model suitable for companies that want to develop quickly, flexibly and successfully digital products despite a historically grown IT landscape.  Here digital platforms are an approach to the transition to flexibility. The resulting importance for the role of an architect and the architecture management in the field of agile development was demonstrated.

At Axel Springer the enterprise architects put their main focus on business and application architecture in projects and accept projects from the architectural view even before they have been approved. They also present strategic issues in front of the Board.
