Integration Competency Centers
Mr. John Schmidt spoke at the conference on integration and architecture as being two sides of the same coin. "While architecture is about differentiating the whole, integration is about making incompatible parts work together seamlessly."

Zachman on Enterprise Architecture:
"If you get really honest and search all of history, seven thousand years of known history of humankind, to find how humanity has learned to cope with two things, complexity and change ... there is one game in town, ARCHITECTURE.
If it (whatever it is) gets so complex you can't remember everything all at one time, you have to write it down ... ARCHITECTURE. Then, if you want to change it (whatever it is), you go to what you wrote down ... ARCHITECTURE.
How do you think they build hundred story buildings, or Boeing 747's, or IBM supercomputers ... or even simple things like a one-bedroom house or a Piper Cub or the PC on your desk? Somebody had to write it down ... at excruciating levels of detail ... ARCHITECTURE. Now, if you want to change any of those things (with minimum time, disruption and cost), how do you change them? You go to what you wrote down ... ARCHITECTURE.
The key to complexity and change is ARCHITECTURE.
In the Industrial Age, we had to learn what architecture was relative to physical objects (products) in order to deal with product complexity and product change.
In the Information Age, it is the Enterprise that is complex and changing and therefore, now we are having to learn what architecture is relative to the Enterprise ... Enterprise Architecture." |

The GIG Architectural Vision |
"The development of the future GIG will eliminate communication stovepipes, meet spiraling information demands, and support unanticipated needs and users. This initial version of the GIG Architectural Vision describes the target GIG.
Our goal in establishing the GIG Architectural Vision is to promote unity of effort among
those responsible for evolving today’s GIG to its target state, including component
CIOs, portfolio managers, and architects. To support this goal, the GIG Architectural
Vision is designed to be a short, high level, understandable description of DoD’s
objective enterprise architecture (required by law and policy). It will be updated
periodically to reflect operational, systems and technical changes to the target GIG.
Through the development of a series of time-phased GIG Capability Increments, today’s
GIG will evolve towards the target GIG described in this Vision." |

Preface of the GIG Architectural Vision
