Customer Advisor within Architecture @SASSoftware. Opinions are my own.

[Kristoffer Nilsson @krillenil]

@macoopma Really good point! Curiosity and the ability to listen is stronger than most other skills.

[Kristoffer Nilsson @krillenil]

A4: To design in a way which fosters agility and speed. A clear architecture/direction is good, but not to the expense of innovation, speed and agility. There will be much more focus on enabling change, rather than implementing rigid structures. #SASChat #EnterpriseArchitecture

[Kristoffer Nilsson @krillenil]

@JOchiaiBrown Yeah, that's a really tough one. The combination of how to interpret legal aspects, and "what do we feel comfortable with". Is really one of the toughest (and most important) nuts to crack.

[Kristoffer Nilsson @krillenil]

A3: Before we talked about Outsourcing, now we talk about XAAS. Before Service Oriented Architecture, now microservices. Before virtualization, now containers. Even though the toolbox has evolved the main drivers have stayed the same. #SASChat #EnterpriseArchitecture

[Kristoffer Nilsson @krillenil]

@JOchiaiBrown Agreed, just by looking at services i use myself personally I would say that speed of change and adaptability beats price in many cases.

[Kristoffer Nilsson @krillenil]

A2: It has changed from planning for a future we think will come, to plan for agility. More focus on building something now that is adaptable, rather than putting months or years of planning in something that might never happen. #saschat #EnterpriseArchitecture

[Kristoffer Nilsson @krillenil]

A2: Both for it-systems and the organization the focus is on independent parts with clear purpose (and interface to each other). This moves monoliths to microservices, and clearly defined roles/processes to self-organizing teams. #saschat #EnterpriseArchitecture

[Kristoffer Nilsson @krillenil]

A1: IT, business, customers. Everyone.
Having the possibility to adapt to customer needs in an efficient, cost effective and flexible manner is key to be able to provide services that quickly evolves with changed customer behaviors and needs. #SASchat #EnterpriseArchitecture

Thanks for a really fun chat. Always a really interesting experience to see all different views on a subject lile this. Now back to the Swedish summer :) #saschat

[SAS Forums @sasforums]

Great discussion today #SASchat team! What final thoughts would each of you like to share before we close up this chat on #cloud #analytics

[Kristoffer Nilsson @krillenil]

A5: Focus on additional value generated and not only current cost savings. Things like flexibility and agility can be just as important,. The cloud migration is not only to cover what the requirements are today, but also to enable what they will be tomorrow. #saschat @CoreCompete

[Kristoffer Nilsson @krillenil]

A4: Where the input/output of data and decisions are more decoupled, such as systems where data is batched on a regular frequence, the analytics workload could be moved to cloud earlier to get the benefits on the scalability and flexibiity the cloud deliver. #saschat @CoreCompete

[Kristoffer Nilsson @krillenil]

A4: In a tightly coupled environment the analytics workload is in the same place at the cloud adoption maturity as the system that feeds it/the systems the analytics does feed. #saschat @CoreCompete

[Kristoffer Nilsson @krillenil]

@macoopma @CoreCompete I totally agree. I think it will vary, but hybrid will probably be more and more common, since having everything running on cloud is a really far journey for most companies.

[Kristoffer Nilsson @krillenil]

@macoopma @CoreCompete Interesting point, which is a hard one. Gives much more freedom and flexibility, but will it affect peoples ability to regain energy when always available?

[Kristoffer Nilsson @krillenil]

A3: Since analytics should follow the data it also opens up for more requirement regarding cloud/hybrid architectures, allowing for data residing in anything ranging from on premise mainframes to cloud data lakes. #saschat @CoreCompete
