These challenges included how the Agile development methodology integrated with the Data Architecture requirements. \nTo overcome these challenges, a globally accessible foundation of standards, templates and best practices was implemented as well as a redefinition of the development community’s roles and skills was accomplished.\nThis presentation discusses how significant cost savings and performance improvements were identified and achieved. \nKey guideline points and a suggested roadmap for the implementation of a foundation of knowledge and best practices will be provided to audience members facing similar challenges.\n Essential Data Architecture artifacts within an Agile Methodology\n The ‘Generalizing Specialist’ -  Expanding data architecture skills in the development community\n Cross-functional execution in the Agile development methodology\n Globally accessible standards and templates: building a solid foundation of knowledge \n The Art of Letting Go: Being an effective Data Architect in an Agile environment
