IT architects: what's in a name
IT architect is a relatively new profession. Because it's so new, there is little consensus about the names of architects.
Names I found on the Internet are (among others):
-
Enterprise architect
-
Information architect
-
Software architect
-
Infrastructure architect
- Security architect
- Project architect
- Systems architect
- Application architect
Of course, no one knows exactly what these people do and what their exact expertise is.
I use the following terminology, that was proposed by the Dutch GIA (Genootschap voor Informatie Architecten) and the SCIA (Society for the Certification of Information Architects):
- Information architect – This architect uses information as a production factor. These are the people that know what information a company uses, and how to use this information to improve businesses.
- IT-Business architect – These people are concerned with the alignment of the IT environment which contains information, with the business.
- IT architect – These people can architect IT infrastructures.
The GIA and the SCIA are working on a so-called BOK, a Body Of Knowledge, with the skills of these architects, so it will be clear to everyone what to expect from a certain architect.
