IT4IT™ Library
The IT4IT™ Reference Architecture, a standard of The Open Group, is a powerful tool for aligning and managing a Digital Enterprise. Its flexible, value stream-based approach supports your digital business wherever you are in your journey and wherever you want to go, regardless of whether your primary business outcome is better, faster, cheaper, safer, or some combination of the four.
Designed as an umbrella framework, the IT4IT approach is useful for companies addressing many of today's challenges, whether it be moving to the cloud, deploying Agile or DevOps, undergoing a Digital Transformation, or moving to a product-centric operating model. With a focus on information needed to manage IT and the flow of data between IT management systems, the IT4IT approach is process-agnostic and useful for businesses of all sizes and industries.
