c: My 3 step process that solves your systems integration problems
By Phil Zito on Sep 19, 2016 6:00:53 AM
Systems integration can be crazy. One moment you've got all your systems talking and next thing you know the whole building is shut down. There's a sort of voodoo magic to the systems integration process. Or at least that is what you've been lead to believe.
I know from experience that the systems integration process can be executed again and again with predictable results if you have a good process. In this episode I take you through my step-by-step process for performing complex systems integration.
In today's episode we will cover:
- What are physical integration points?
- What are logical integration points?
- My three step process for laying out these integration points
Thanks for Listening!
I'm glad to have you here and I look forward to your feedback in the comments below.
If you have a specific question you can send me a voicemail or e-mail message at the Ask Phil Page.
