Implementing a new information technology (IT) system includes the implementation, operations, and maintenance and disposition phase of the Systems Development Life Cycle (SDLC).
Implementation Phase
- Includes implementation preparation, and implementation of the system into a production environment.
- Resolution of problems identified in the implementation.
Operations and Maintenance Phase
- Describes tasks for maintenance and operation of information systems in a production environment. Includes post-implementation and periodic reviews.
Disposition Phase
- Describes end-of-system activities.
- Emphasis is given to proper preservation of data.
Before you implement a new IT project, refer to the appropriate bricks and patterns for the latest information on tactical and strategic directions.
Business requirements may necessitate a temporary exception. The architecture exception process accounts for these exceptions.
