Ensurance that all our client security, functional and non-functional requirements are covered for all tracks in compliance to our client Target Security Reference Enterprise Architecture and Target Enterprise Architecture.
Extensions and evolution of the principles & guidelines, which are translated in a library of our client supported EIP patterns and standards.
Some active hands-on development of new patterns based on evolving and/or new requirements for security, functionality and non-functional requirements is expected.
The basis of implementations is existing preferred tools (with support from existing competence centres) but if new requirements are to be met, then OSS or commercial package evaluation can be considered.
The design and setup of the technical platforms (stacks of different kinds, such as IaaS/PaaS/, security platforms, ) and environments which will be provided to the different Business Capabilities teams within the different tracks.
The operation of the components within the business capability technical platform is not included; this will be managed by track's teams according to DevOps principles or existing client shared competence centres.
The design and setup of the common API Management layers and related assets including the corresponding API Governance (Functional, Information, etc.) which will be provided to the different business capabilities teams within the different tracks so they are able to securely expose their APIs.
The design and setup of Data Governance solutions (full DAMA-wheel based) which will be provided to the different business capabilities teams within the different tracks so they are able to exchange different types of data between business capabilities.
The training/coaching to the different track solution architects on how to apply the proven architectural patterns/principles from a developed, documented library of secure reference implementation for Solutioning implementations.
Input towards reusable architectural pattern reference implementations and governances compliant with the Enterprise Architectures during tracks implementations and productize them under Track 6 for reuse in (other) tracks and/or client's one.
Support to process design for business and EXCITE processes, along adoption of tools upon need.
