Accidental Architectures and the Future of Intelligent Networks - 0 views

  •  
    "Not everything happens for a reason in the world of information management. Not every table or field in a database got where it wound up via some master plan. More often than not, a company's information architecture has grown and evolved organically, like a sort of digital mycelium, spreading underground for years, ultimately providing the infrastructure for all manner of analytical insights to blossom somewhere down the line. The obvious casualties of these "accidental architectures" (as companies like EMC and Talend are calling them) are the elusive goals of clarity and certainty. That's why residential construction engineers take a vastly more disciplined approach when working with their architect counterparts. You wouldn't want an accidental architecture for your three-story home, would you? No one in their right mind would want any such thing."
