The Solution Architecture service provides comprehensive design and technical guidance for the implementation of ICT solutions, which often require the use of a range of technologies, respecting the various needs of availability, security, performance while ensuring optimization of investment and operating costs.
The Solution Architect becomes the final technical guarantor of the entire solution and minimizes the risk that the individual technologies will not form a single functional unit. This methodology ensures that the objectives of complex projects are clearly described and the optimal technical solution is evaluated.
The output of ALEF's Solution Architecture service is either the design of an optimal solution or its delivery, including technical project management. It also includes the design of the renewal or integration of complex resources for the technology. The Solution Architecture service describes and determines how to get to the target state in an optimal way, taking into account the complexity of the project.
The use of the Solution Architect role is nowadays becoming an integral part of modern ICT project management.
