Thinking IT Through
Interoperability RevisitedIn a recent article I suggested that “interoperability of the existing standalone applications needs to become a requirement that Enterprise IT organizations should be driving their existing vendors and Systems Integrators to elevate to a priority. Without such interoperability, building a roadmap of either a ‘Best of Breed’ or a ‘Best of Suite’ will be very difficult, if not impossible. And deploying against the roadmap is likely at least an order of magnitude even more difficult.” I’m not the only one suggesting that application interoperability is going to be critical to the successful implementation of all of IT’s future plans. We’re seeing this over-arching need for interoperability coming from many directions:
So, interoperability is becoming built in to solutions/capabilities across the landscape and all will make it easier for IT to meet its charges to improve how businesses operate and, ultimately generate profits for the future. Stay tuned as this theme will continue in future articles as additional interoperability provides more opportunities to extend existing investments and create new benefits.
