Synopsis
This session starts with definitions, trends and costs of service outages – lack of service resilience - to the UK economy before outlining the conclusions of the ITLF Service Resilience Working Group which reported last year. There are two main conclusions which we would like to discuss with the Enterprise Architecture SIG. These are the use of measures for the impact of failures on users and the potential for using learning from financial services.
We use a range of sources to raise questions related to Business resilience, Data resilience, Application resilience and Technology/platform resilience, and also ask what else we should be asking Enterprise Architects about service resilience.
