Why Enterprise Architecture Is Important for New CIOs
This IDC Perspective gives a basic overview of an enterprise initiative for newly appointed CIOs and a springboard on which to base further refinement.

Future perspectives will share common pitfalls and cautionary notes to keep in mind as well as an approach to exploring and ranking relevant emerging technologies."I'm continually surprised that this very basic building block for an IT organization is not in place in many organizations.
