Application Architecture

Origo’s Application Architecture Practice

Our application architecture practice is comprised of a highly  specialized group of individuals with extensive experience in software  design and architecture. Our thought leaders in this area come from  diverse backgrounds in industry with impressive credentials.

Our design practice is anchored in thorough validation and qualification  of underlying requirements, business rules and practices at both  functional and process oriented levels. Once requirements and business  rules are identified and validated, a prototypical analysis is performed  using various tools and skill sets. This practice yields artifacts such  as case models, sequence models, wire frames and collaboration models  which form the basis of a framework for solution design.

Our library of prototypes and design patterns includes industry  standards and a wide array of homegrown component patterns and best  practices that have been tested and proven over the years. The benefit  to our clients is clearly a path towards rapid solution realization  while increasing and improving quality through component and aspect  reuse.

The discipline of application architecture from an Origo perspective,  involves the fabrication of homogenous solutions of elegant, functional  and visionary stature, born out of simple or complex systems,  interactions, components and aspects. Firstly, the approach towards  solution architecture considers the required objectives from a client’s  perspective, while maintaining a keen understanding of the nature of the  required solution scope, timeline and space. Having a clear  understanding of these factors provides us a favorable advantage in  providing our clients with solutions that consistently exceed  expectations.

Business Architecture

Origo’s Business Architecture Practice

One thing about the new economy is clear. Market leading  enterprises understand the importance of transforming operations and  technology in order to become more adaptable when responding to ever  changing market conditions.  How are you dealing with the “pain” of  transforming your enterprise and silos of information to become more  agile and adaptive in the new economy? 

Aligning vision and strategy with technology using industry standard  frameworks is a critical component of success for the new breed of  businesses. Enterprise architecture builds upon these frameworks and  tools to evolve IT in response to changing business needs and for  alignment with strategic objectives.  

At the same time, infrequent analysis across business operations,  technology and strategy often derails the business from its mission.  This is evidenced by a lack of an enterprise architecture competency in  the organization.  

Does the introduction of change create risk and points of failure in your business? 

If your answer is yes, it’s probably because processes and structures  that produce agility don’t exist or lack capability and maturity.  We  can help you fix this. 

Enterprise architecture fixes the risks for change because it ensures  that the spokes and wheels (frameworks) are in place to transform  operations and functional areas of the business reliably and in a way  that is responsive to market demands while providing objective guidance  to you, your decision makers and business leaders.  

“Organizations that do not focus EA on their business strategy and on  collaborating with business leaders will be greatly limited in their  ability to deliver substantial business value. To achieve business  outcomes and to drive business change, EA value must be collaboratively  developed and supported within the context of the business direction,  strategy and future vision.”  – Gartner 

It is clear that in today’s market, a responsive enterprise architecture  practice is critical for business and customer success.  

Here are a few questions for you to consider. 

1. How far will your business strategy get you before it becomes obsolete?
2. How often do you revisit your enterprise vision and mission?
3. How severely do changes impact the organization?
4. Are you where you want to be today based on forecasts three years ago?  
5. Do you have a successful enterprise architecture practice?
 

If the answer to ANY of these questions brings discomfort or anything  less confidently positive, we would like to show you how many of our  clients continue to benefit from having our architecture team and  technology platform help them transition towards becoming more agile  without having to ramp up internal expertise. 

Converged Architecture

Origo’s Converged Architecture Practice

Our converged architecture practice is really at the heart of our business.

Our thought leaders in this area have  spent years thinking through the implications of convergence in the  digital age and know through experience and numerous success stories  with clients, that successful enterprises in the digital age are those  that understand how to harness the intelligence that lies within the  flood of disparate data and resources to their advantage.
                             

Digital Convergence is the art and  science of guiding the principles and goals of the enterprise through  this quagmire of data in a way that is smart, efficient and effective  all the time.
                             

That is what we do, and we do it well. A  result of applying our converged architecture patterns, principles and  expertise through this journey is what naturally transforms enterprises  into global leaders.

Data Architecture

Origo’s Data Architecture Practice

Our team of experienced database experts  provides our clients with the absolute highest level of capabilities  towards modern efficient data modeling, architecture, and design.                                  

We can handle both structured and non  structured data models with document, relational and object management  capabilities.

Data modeling, design, and architecture disciplines may be used  interactively with our solution design and architecture processes to  ensure that data components are fully compatible with the design  process. This ensures that the mandated solution has a database design  that satisfies the demands of the software architecture and delivered  solution.

The database practice area also functions as an independent entity that can facilitate solutions for clients that just need database specific expertise.

Our loader, data layer services, and extraction technologies provide a toolkit which can be used as an integral part of Canary™ and Dynamo™, or independently to solve various data transformation problems.  

These tools have been created to empower users and our experts with extensible technology resource capabilities for the ever-challenging landscapes of current and future computing environments.

Security Architecture

Origo’s Security Architecture Practice

Our team of experienced enteprise  information security (EISA) experts provides our clients with a  disciplined and framework driven approach towards pragmatic threat  management, posture and risk modeling, architecture, and design.

We  handle both structured and non  structured security component models that deal with threat detection,  management and control that permeate all aspects of the overall  enterprise architecture domain.     

Infrastructure Architecture

Origo’s Infrastructure Practice

The promise of hyper-converged infrastructure is taking us in a  direction where a single managed backplane can be used to effectively  manage compute, memory and storage from a single pane of glass.

We leverage hyper-convergence tightly  with our infrastructure architecture blueprints to save time, resources  and money across cloud environments.

Our team of experienced enteprise  infrastructure team provide clients with a framework driven approach  towards pragmatic infrastructure modeling, architecture, and design.
