Microsoft Windows Architecture for Developers Training Kit
How MSF is Utilized
The MSF can be implemented by itself or in conjunction with other tools and techniques. It is a dynamic knowledge base that continues to evolve based on new information from Microsoft's customers and partners and on new developments in technology. The MSF is designed to help organizations:
- Revamp existing technology, application, and data architectures effectively and with minimal disruption.
- Develop disciplines for organizing effective project teams and managing a project lifecycle.
- Define the processes for developing and deploying business solutions.
- Support and manage deployment, operations, and technology solutions.
The MSF can also assist you in planning, building, and managing distributed technology infrastructure. It exposes critical risks, planning assumptions, and key interdependencies that you should address so deployment of technology-based solutions can be successful.
The MSF can help you address these issues:
- How to manage computing resources.
- How to improve development, reduce maintenance, and increase reuse of technology.
- How to modify user or business requirements without redeveloping an entire system.
