We Don't Need No Architects

  • The role of the IT architect is to solve
    a problem by defining a system that can be implemented using technology. Good
    architects define systems by applying abstract knowledge and proven methods to
    a set of technologies with the goal of creating an extendible and maintainable
    solution
  • To "solve a problem," the architect must have a good
    understanding of the problem domain. To "define a system using technology,"
    implies that the architect has technical acumen. "Abstract knowledge" requires
    the architect to be able to conceptualize the technical solution. "Proven
    methods" assumes an understanding of the patterns used to solve similar
    problems.
