    Talking Architects with Richard Veryard

    Is your organisation intelligent? What makes an organisation smart? What makes them dumb? We all know that what intelligent people are like and it's not necessarily linked to IQ! It's more about their ability to deal with complexity and being able to learn from their mistakes - if they don't we might call them stupid! The same can apply to organisations.

    Besides this, he's got great hair and a fantastic beard that makes me think I'm talking to a professor out of some Heath Robinson picture!

    Andy presented at AIC on the need for arhitects to stand up and be counted and I got time with himto explore this and other stuff a little further.

    Talking Architects with David Sprott

    10 years of .NET and 10 years of .NET Web Services! Well, perhaps this was not mark the starting point of Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) but the last decade has seen an unpresidented period where SOA has reigned supreme at top of the hype cycle! David Sprott, CEO, CBDI-Forum has dedicated his time to providing SOA guidance to Industry.

    So what does he make of all this cloud stuff? Does 'cloud now trump SOA? I got the chance to ask david this and other stuff backstage at Architect Insight.
