Hi HN,

I'm trying to develop a better knowledge base for enterprise IT architecture and data architecture. Quite a lot of larger companies use IT jargon that I'm not as familiar with from school (e.g., MDM, EDW, etc.) and I'd like to improve my ability to discuss these topics.<p>Does anyone have any good resources or books to recommend on this?

Thanks!

This one is supposed to be good: Patterns of Enterprise Application Architecture, by Martin Fowler http://www.amazon.com/Patterns-Enterprise-Application-Archit...

I am trying to do the same thing as you, and I recently ordered this text based on a recommendation from a mentor.

Thanks for that! Haven't come across this book, so will definitely check it out.

Did your mentor have any recommendations on the actual infrastructure setup as well? (e.g., servers, networks, data center locations)
