The Enterprise Architect

I just finished a slideshow about Enterprise Architecture for People&Technology.

Here is the contents of the last slide.

The Enterprise Architect:

Must have rather complete profile:
- Understands the business
- Knows the strengths/weaknesses of the complete application portfolio
- Understands the technology required to succeed
Can compensate (nobody is perfect) if
- Has an open mind and is creative (thinking out of the box)
- Can communicate
- Is eager to learn (business, applications, technology)
- Establishes a method for documenting (or rather painting: architecture is an Art) the 3 architectures layers and their relationships
- Is capabable of abstraction, can combine top-down, bottom-up and middle-out problem resolution techniques.
Can explain the gap between the current and the future architecture and propose concrete, actionnable transformation roadmaps
Can try to promote ICT architecture best practices (TOFAG, UML, ITIL…) at the business level but it’s not always a good idea (Ex: ICT Vs legal description of a product or service). Over an ICTer, I prefer someone who knows the business and has methods to document it in a structured way
Is a maestro at the service of the CEO : you are looking for Leonardo Da Vinci

When I search for knowledge, I don't want a video. I want well structured text with illustrations. So I can jump to where I need to be.

Php to UML with bouml

For our startup, we have coded many classes in php. As the code grows, it becomes difficult to have a good overview of all the attributes and methods.

I tested yesterday bouml (that I had for long time on all my machines) to reverse enginner the code. The result is fast and efficient. I now have a nice uml diagram with all my classes.
