Where IT organizations are heading?

Pushing architectural decisions to lowest in-experienced developer level is resulting in fragile applications being deployed in enterprises.
While fragile applications generate future revenue in terms of maintenance and support for global IT service companies, the business users are becoming increasingly frustrated with the performance of these applications.
Using team knowledge effectively is key to IT productivity. We need to improve maturity of core KM processes in SDLC.
If IT organizations do not take corrective actions at this time, irreversible damage to reputation can occur.

New trends in Software Engineering

New trends are emerging in the way we develop software. Distributed agility is a must. Requirements need to be captured in different way. Right information architecture is a must for all software documentation. Test first is the way to go. Knowledge needs to de-centralized to make it more scalable. Tools must be created to improve speed of human thinking. Software costs have to be re-worked based on option pricing models.
