Times of increasing change and uncertanty create unprecedented disruption and dislocation but also provide the potential for new power and fortune. The question is: How do we prepare our organizations to not only survive, but to also take advantage of the opportunities that rapid change inevitably brings? The advent of cloud computing presents an opportunity for organizations to revolutionize the way they build information systems and, in so doing, transform their business. |

Until now, the IT department has been the focal point of automation in the organization because it has the sole means of production (programmers, etc.) and the sole means of delivery (the data center). The advent of the cloud and the platforms built on top of it are quickly changing this. |

June 22 2009 This book is a guide to building information systems at the edge of chaos - that sweet pot of productive change, where front line workers have the capability to pursue their own solutions with minimal central control. The advent of cloud computing presents an unprecedented opportunity for organizations to revolutionize the way in which they build information systems, and in so doing, transform their business. How do we prepare our organizations to not only survive, but to take advantage of the opportunities that rapid change inevitably brings? This book focuses on the role of information systems in this endeavor. Information systems will become increasingly more critical to the success of every enterprise. How they are built and how they are used should therefore be foremost on the mind of anyone responsible for the well-being of an organization. |
May 22 2004 This book applies ideas from other fields to information technology. The author believes that if we are to dramatically reduce the amount of time and effort it takes to build business software, we need to completely re-think how we go about it. Improving methodologies, changing programming languages, using offshore resources - these answers will lead to incremental improvements, at best. What is needed is dramatic change. To do this requires an equally dramatic change in thinking. Applying insights from the world of science, sociology and psychology, the author offers a vision for a new IT. |
