When a company invests in ITIL, very often Architecture is not much involved: this is a mistake because there is much overlap, and Architecture can end up side-lined by the ITIL juggernaut. But there are a lot of benefits Architecture can bring to an ITIL-oriented organization.
This slide deck goes a step or two further than the white-papers out there I've found to date in providing some concrete guidance on how to actually integrate Architecture activities into ITIL. The deck uses TOGAF as the reference framework, but the concepts can be applied to any modern Architecture practice, since the discussion focuses on the types of deliverables and activities, which analogously exist in most frameworks.

1) Cloud computing has become widespread and is increasingly being used with mobile and big data technologies. It allows for proactive system updates but also means users must develop integration environments.
2) To fully utilize cloud computing, businesses need to design solutions that meet all performance and feature needs through choice and customization. This requires a "grand design" approach to integration that uses cloud technologies.
3) Multiple cloud services can be integrated and configured to create innovative customer service solutions, demonstrating how cloud services enable new opportunities through integration.

Systems Integration in the Cloud Era with Apache Camel @ ApacheCon Europe 2012Kai Wähner
Shows the elegance of Apache Camel to integrate different cloud providers such as Amazon Web Services (IaaS), Google App Engine (PaaS), or Salesforce (SaaS).
Presented at DocTrain East 2007 by Joe Gelb, Suite Solutions -- Designing, building and maintaining a coherent information architecture is critical to proper planning, creation, management and delivery of documentation and training content. This is especially true when your content is based on a modular or topic-based model such as DITA and SCORM or if you are migrating to such a model.
But where to start? Terms such as taxonomy, semantics, and ontology can be intimidating, and recognized standards like RDF, OWL, Topic Maps (XTM) and SKOS seem so abstract. This pragmatic workshop will provide an overview of the standards and concepts, and a chance to use them hands-on to turn the abstract into tangible skills. We will demonstrate how a well-designed information architecture facilitates reuse and how the information model is integrally connected to conditional and multi-purpose publishing.
We will introduce an innovative, comprehensive methodology for information modeling and content development called SOTA Solution Oriented Topic Architecture. SOTA does not aim to be yet another new standard, but rather a concrete methodology backed up with open-source and accessible tools for using existing standards. We will demonstrate ֖and practice—hands-on—how this powerful methodology can help you organize and express information, determine which content actually needs to be created or updated, and build documentation and training deliverables from your content based on the rules you define.
This workshop is essential for successfully implementing topic models like DITA and SCORM, multi-purpose conditional publishing, and successfully facilitating content reuse.
Systems Integration in the Cloud Era - API vs. Integration Framework vs. Ente...Kai Wähner
The document discusses systems integration in the cloud era. It notes that cloud computing, including Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS) and Software as a Service (SaaS), has arrived and these new cloud services must now be integrated. Different APIs, frameworks and products from vendors like Amazon Web Services, Google App Engine and Salesforce can help with cloud integration. The key messages are that the cloud is already here and must be integrated, cloud integration is already possible, and various tools assist with this integration.
This document compares and contrasts an enterprise service bus (ESB) and an API management gateway. It discusses that they both provide common functions like security, policies, and developer tools. However, an ESB focuses more on integrating internal services, while an API gateway focuses more on exposing internal services externally. The document also provides an overview of AdroitLogic's UltraESB and its solutions, which are positioned as both an ESB and API management platform.

HCL Nomad Web – Best Practices and Managing Multiuser Environmentspanagenda
Webinar Recording: https://www.panagenda.com/webinars/hcl-nomad-web-best-practices-and-managing-multiuser-environments/
HCL Nomad Web is heralded as the next generation of the HCL Notes client, offering numerous advantages such as eliminating the need for packaging, distribution, and installation. Nomad Web client upgrades will be installed “automatically” in the background. This significantly reduces the administrative footprint compared to traditional HCL Notes clients. However, troubleshooting issues in Nomad Web present unique challenges compared to the Notes client.
Join Christoph and Marc as they demonstrate how to simplify the troubleshooting process in HCL Nomad Web, ensuring a smoother and more efficient user experience.
In this webinar, we will explore effective strategies for diagnosing and resolving common problems in HCL Nomad Web, including
- Accessing the console
- Locating and interpreting log files
- Accessing the data folder within the browser’s cache (using OPFS)
- Understand the difference between single- and multi-user scenarios
- Utilizing Client Clocking
Book industry standards are evolving rapidly. In the first part of this session, we’ll share an overview of key developments from 2024 and the early months of 2025. Then, BookNet’s resident standards expert, Tom Richardson, and CEO, Lauren Stewart, have a forward-looking conversation about what’s next.
