Development infrastructure and hardware
Developing enterprise architecture requires a focus that spreads out beyond application development and into the development infrastructure. Enterprise infrastructure includes on-premise servers and hardware frameworks as well as cloud-based infrastructure as a service and platform as a service (IaaS and PaaS) cloud resources. Focusing on architecture infrastructure helps enterprise application developers and architects build faster, more efficient applications that are easier to scale out and to maintain.
