To adopt and harness the potential of IT, organizations have to be “built for the future”, robust systems and software with not only extended lifespan but also be flexible and adaptable to changing environments. To achieve this, organizations have to envision, plan and build a comprehensive framework or blue print (called Enterprise Architecture) to manage and align their business processes including - Information Technology (IT) software and hardware, people, operations and projects with the organization's overall strategy. Reiterating the significance of IT Architecture, iCMG – an IT Architecture services and middleware product company is organizing “Architecture World 2007” - an international conference on Architecture, scheduled on the 27th and 28th June, 2007 at the TATA Auditorium in IISc., campus. Please visit www.architecturesummit.com for more information on the summit. An effective architecture initiative will improve decision-making, adaptability to changing demands or market conditions, elimination of inefficient and redundant processes, optimization of the use of organizational assets, and minimization of employee turnover. “The evolution of IT is at a crossroads. The dynamics of the IT market will change fundamentally as we work on bridging the gap between IT capability and business needs. This conference will provide an opportunity to the architects, managers, consultants, CIOs and CTOs to share knowledge of innovative IT architecture, which represents the next generation of practice in the software discipline.” says Mr. Sunil Dutt Jha, Practicing Architect & CEO of iCMG, a technology leader in Middleware Software.
