About this Presentation

Agile development is often talked about in terms of small teams of developers creating massive amounts of code. Such scenarios strike fear into the hearts of “Enterprise Architects”. This talk addresses the issues of how agile development and enterprise architecture can not only co-exist with but participate in an agile development effort.

Issues such as roles, how architecture requirements can become stories and functional tests, and different models of assimilation are described.
