"From the Board and the executive, through operations, to out-sourced functions, technologies like artificial intelligence, machine-to-machine learning, and Big Data Analytics along with cloud services are transforming business. Knowledge worker services are being automated, increased information dependencies are seen, risk profiles revised, markets changing, and cost savings to be had. To make these integrated changes, a strategic but pragmatic incremental approach with the necessary governance, organizational change, and architecture is used. It is in the pragmatics of architecture against strategy in which this book brings an integrated approach to transformation."-Keith Sherringham, EY
