The three-day Bloomberg Agile Architecture™ Certification course is the sequel to Jason Bloomberg’s groundbreaking Licensed ZapThink Architect SOA course, which he ran for over eight years for ZapThink, certifying over 1,700 architects. Now, as president of Intellyx, Bloomberg has put together an all-new curriculum that goes well beyond SOA to explain today’s cutting-edge approaches to achieving the organization’s digital transformation objectives by architecting for agility in the enterprise.

Jason BloombergEven though many organizations have achieved a measure of success with SOA, Bloomberg was always frustrated with the limited ability to achieve the strategic business agility goals of the architecture. He would lay out a picture of how SOA was supposed to work, both in the enterprise and in the Cloud, knowing full well that most of them wouldn’t be able to put his advice fully into practice.

The “next generation” SOA story did move this ball forward somewhat. He contrasted first generation, middleware-centric, Web Services-based SOA with the next generation approach that was RESTful, lightweight, decentralized, and Cloud-friendly. But even so, people generally weren’t able to take the next-generation SOA story and actually put it into practice.

Today, Bloomberg has filled in the missing pieces of the Agile Architecture story. In this course, architects, system engineers, IT managers, and other professionals will learn a practical approach for leveraging legacy technology to achieve real, lasting business agility in their organizations — the key to successful digital transformation.

It’s still not easy. For many organizations it will take several years to fully realize the value of the Bloomberg Agile Architecture approach. But in keeping with its Agile roots, the Bloomberg Agile Architecture roadmap Bloomberg lays out in the course takes students through an iterative, step-by-step approach that shows value along the way, as their organizations gradually realize their digital transformation vision.
