Introduction to Ecosystem-Oriented Architecture
Cloud ecosystems built on strategic foundations create the conditions to absorb successive waves of change
Course Summary
In today's digital landscape, organizations face the challenge of integrating siloed systems and data into a cohesive ecosystem.
This guides you through the principles and basic architectural practices using Ecosystem-Oriented Architecture (EOA) to transform disjointed “point solutions” into a unified, data-centric cloud ecosystem.
Leveraging tools like Microsoft Azure AI, Fabric and OneLake, Dataverse and Power Platform, Azure integratio services, and more, this course demonstrates how to orchestrate and optimize core technologies to support modern workloads. By consolidating data, reducing manual workflows, and deploying AI workloads, participants will learn how to streamline processes and enhance operational efficiency.
Key concepts covered include:
- The historical and economic context through which EOA has become so important
- The "strategic pyramid" driving a focus architecting strategic foundations and building platform ecosystems
- Six core principles for ecosystem-oriented architecture
- Reference architectural models and real-world industry examples
- Integrating AI-driven workloads to enhance decision-making and automation
- Utilizing Microsoft tools like Azure AI Search, Synapse, and Power BI to drive data insights
- Understanding the benefits of a single data lake (OneLake) and single source of truth for application data (Dataverse)
- Applying EOA principles to real-world enterprise scenarios, improving employee experiences and reducing redundancy.
By the end of this course, you will be equipped with the knowledge to design and implement a robust enterprise ecosystem that fosters collaboration, reduces costs, and unlocks new insights through integrated AI and data technologies.
Target Audience: This course is designed for IT architects, business analysts, and technology leaders responsible for shaping enterprise-level IT ecosystems and improving organizational efficiencies through data orchestration and AI integration.
