Executive Summary (This is a document excerpt)

Forrester's Digital Business Architecture lets diverse IT domains work together as one, enabling IT to deliver unified solutions to business problems that cross IT domains. This either: 1) drives down a firm's total spending on IT, or 2) lets IT deliver more business value at the same spending level. Building a Digital Business Architecture means capturing business processes and policies as metadata and combining diverse trends like business process management (BPM), service-oriented architecture (SOA), unified communications, and utility computing into a coherent model. And it's not a pipe dream; you can get started today by using joint business-IT teams to simultaneously design business processes and the IT solutions that embody those processes and connect them to the physical world.
