Course
Architecture-relevant IT platforms 2.0 («ARP2»)
Course facts
- Understanding the basic architectural characteristics of major IT platforms and platform types
- Understanding the key aspects of IT platforms in the context of an organization's IT landscape
- Understanding scenarios and selection criteria for IT platforms
- Participating in the selection of IT platforms, taking into account a given IT landscape in the organization
- Comparing different IT platforms in terms of their architectural relevance
- Architecturally classifying IT platforms (including new ones)
- Familiarizing yourself with the IT platforms discussed
When developing IT systems, more or less architecturally relevant IT platforms (infrastructures) are usually used. An architect should therefore assess the IT platforms used according to their architectural relevance and take them into account when creating and implementing an IT architecture or software architecture. Only then will architecture be appropriate. Architects therefore need at least a basic overview of the architecture-relevant IT platforms and types used in practice. This also enables architects to assess and classify new IT platforms architecturally, taking into account the given IT landscape of a company.
- Fundamentals of IT platforms and types in an architectural context
- Cloud computing platforms
- Mobile Platforms
- Component platforms using Java and .NET as examples
- Mainframe platforms
- Architecture aspects, tools and deployment scenarios for the above IT platforms
This course is targeted at architects, developers, and decision-makers who want a sound overview of important IT platforms.
