In our transformation journey ahead as a group, we intend to build loosely coupled but tightly aligned components that are built expecting to be reused while anticipating change. We need to converge our varied workloads to common applications and solutions across the group.

All applications need to adopt common services, platforms, architectural principles, and design patterns.

We need to create framework for multi cloud adoption and migration. Build cloud suitability framework for workloads. Provide design for cloud implementation and automate software integration and deployment, provision infrastructure as a code.
Engineering teams then design and build new capabilities & features, they need to begin with an end-state vision of how their applications and infrastructure will operate within this architecture and, then, engineer them accordingly.
This sets a common set of parameters and tools for technology provides a consistent approach to security and reliability. In addition, Architectural agility has a causal relationship with potential strategic and operational benefits.

The Enterprise Architecture team is responsible for enabling the above ambition and guiding the design and development of architecture framework and policies which guide our technology landscape for the group encompassing business, infrastructure, data, application and security architecture, that meet current and future enterprise business strategy.
