IT Architect

IT Architect. Background In order to meet IT business demands with high quality IT services - both now and for future growth and flexibility - an automated, policy driven IT infrastructure must be set in place. Standardization, unification and control are fundamentally necessary for architecting and constructing an IT Infrastructure that meets these objectives. Building an automated and policy driven IT infrastructure to meet these requirements will take time and could eventually impact all solutions/applications and infrastructure. There is a number of defined criteria's set as the entry level, the lowest basic level of criteria, in order to build for the future and at the same time to be able to migrate and relocate from today's IT landscape. These criteria are the minimum criteria to be able to support the need for payment card industry compliance and the need for the company's outsourcing strategy. These criteria must be applied to all solutions/applications that enter the new data centre in order to provide the anchor and foundation for building this infrastructure across the enterprise. There is a group of people that has for the past fourteen months interpreted and clarified these criteria's and the line organisation is now ready for reviews in a larger scale. We are estimating a 100 systems/services to perform a review in the first two quarters of 2009.
