- To Register Visit: http://www.forrester.com/Events/Register/0,5233,2369,00.html
- What: Vandervoort has developed a unique new insight into the best architectures to enable high-velocity business: the business pipeline. During his presentation, attendees will:
- Learn how the pipeline metaphor can be used to gain deeper insight into the way IT environments serve the business.
- Understand the details of this architecture pattern, including "side pipes" for information provisioning and business visibility.
- See how this architecture enables organizations to accomplish higher velocity in their business, from several real-world case studies.
- Why: Business is moving with higher and higher velocity, yet IT is often not able to keep up with the demands of the business for more timely business visibility and greater business agility. Whether the challenge is adapting business strategy to rapidly changing economic realities, or leveraging customer data insights to extract greater opportunity, the architectures that IT employs today are often not up to the job.
