Executive Report

Mobility in business implies two keywords: location independence and personalization.

Executive Update

This Executive Update is the first in a two-part series that looks at the results of a recent Cutter survey on the use of enterprise application mashups in organizations.

Enterprise Architecture: It's Not Just For IT Anymore

Podcast by Mike Rosen and Jeroen van Tyn

In this podcast of a Summit 2007 interactive luncheon session, Cutter Senior Consultants Mike Rosen and Jeroen van Tyn discuss this paradox and describe a process for better aligning enterprise IT solutions with enterprise business needs. Listen to this luncheon discussion and come away with practical advice for getting business and IT to understand each other's roles and needs in a way that leads your enterprise toward a common goal.
