This article talks about the different architect positions/notions in an organization. The author talks about the fact that how the IT fraternity is in love with the word "Architect" and positions like Solution Architect, Process Architect, Strategy Architect and so on are picking up really fast. The articles then goes on to suggest that this field needs a better classification and must be split in specialized fields.

Finally. I come from a non IT background (in fact, business management) and this is one of the first articles I've seen that makes perfect sense. From a business management perspective, it makes sense that a single person can't effectively handle the massive knowledge needed to truly represent an enterprise architecture. Much like doctors in this article, business managers, financial workers, and accountants specialize in a specific area because it is not possible to retain all the information of the different specialities. Why should EA's attempt to do so?
