BOOK



Platform Ecosystems is a hands-on guide that offers a complete

roadmap for designing and orchestrating vibrant software platform

ecosystems. Unlike software products that are managed, the

evolution of ecosystems and their myriad participants must be

orchestrated through a thoughtful alignment of architecture and

governance. Whether you are an IT professional or a general

manager, you will benefit from this book because platform

strategy here lies at the intersection of software architecture

and business strategy. It offers actionable tools to develop your

own platform strategy, backed by original research, tangible

metrics, rich data, and cases. You will learn how architectural

choices create organically-evolvable, vibrant ecosystems. You

will also learn to apply state-of-the-art research in software

engineering, strategy, and evolutionary biology to leverage

ecosystem dynamics unique to platforms. Read this book to learn

how to:

Evolve software products and services into vibrant platform

ecosystems Orchestrate platform architecture and governance to

sustain competitive advantage Govern platform evolution using a

powerful 3-dimensional framework

If you're ready to transform platform strategy from newspaper

gossip and business school theory to real-world competitive

advantage, start right here

Understand how architecture and strategy are inseparably

intertwined in platform ecosystems Architect future-proof

platforms and apps and amplify these choices through governance
