12. THINK DIFFER3NT
Three Simple Layers

13. ALL IMAGINABLE
TOUCH-POINTS,
DEVICES AND END-POINTS

14. PLATFORM FOR
ENABLING

15. CORE
IS NOT ACCESSED FROM THE
OUTER LAYER

16. SOLUTION
BILOT 3Mode

17. All customer, user, IoT, etc. touch-points are found
here. This is the layer where business should be
able to develop and iterate as they like, at their
own pace and speed – without restrictions. IT
governance is zero to low, mainly security is to be
considered.
RESPONSIVE1
SPEED
No speed-limits! Artifacts in
the RESPONSIVE layer are
treated individually. No
methodoligal restrictions –
anything can be applied!
RISK
Risk varies from low to
nonexistent. All the risk
should be within the
individual artifacts.
COST
From the TCO point, cost
of change is very low.
Changes typically require
cheap metaskills.
RESPONSIVE1

18. This Digital Platform Ecosystem layer is the most
important layer of 3Mode. It enables the various
capabilities and services to be consumed and
leveraged in the 1. RESPONSIVE layer.
Development is done hand-in-hand with both
business and IT.
ENABLEMENT2
SPEED
Slower than
RESPONSIVE, much
faster than CORE.
DevOps, Agile and
similar ways of
working.
COST
Average cost,
depends on the skills
requirements.
RISK
Average business risk,
low regression risk.
ENABLEMENT2
RESPONSIVE1

19. Home of the essential data for your business
models and strategies. It does not equal “ERP”, in
which whole processes would reside; processes
originate from CORE, but take their shape in the
upper layers. You want to avoid development
and forced changes at all cost in CORE!
CORE3
SPEED
Slow to very slow.
Highly dependant of
the organizational
capabilities, e.g.
testing automation.
COST
Changes and
development are of
high-cost. Proprietary
skills are required.
Development is highly
IT-driven.
RISK
Typically high-risk.
Heavy regression
effect.

20. BENEFITS
Put IT on the map.
Develop productively.

21. RESPONSIVE1
ENABLEMENT2
CORE3
Undivided business logic and structured
data. Best-of-breed systems. Cloud: IaaS.
“Digital Core”. Core of ERP and
applications. MDM. Structured Hadoop.
Extending, enriching and providing
CORE-layer logic or data. Cloud: PaaS.
Application platforms. DW & Unstr.
Hadoop, integration & API services.
Consumption and exploration of ENABLEMENT-
layer services. Cloud: SaaS/outer PaaS/None.
Apps, websites, devices, end-points, sensors,
touch-points, UI/UX of application platforms.
ENABLEMENT2
CORE3
SPEED
COST
Changing the CORE is costly
and requires domain specific
skills. Changes in the
RESPONSIVE layer are cheap
because metaskills can be
utilized.
SPEED
Speed and volume of changes
increase when moving towards
the edge of the RESPONSIVE
layer. There is no fast or slow, as
all development should be
done as fast as possible.
RISK
Un-tested and unplanned
changes in the CORE can take
down a whole enterprise. And,
vice-versa: changes gone
wrong on the outer layer
should affect a single business
outcome at worst.

Implications on release management
Changes done purely in RESPONSIVE layer
• Rapid release cycle possible due to low regression risk
Changes involving the ENABLEMENT layer
• Medium speed release cycle possible
Changes involving the CORE layer
• Option A: entire change done in a cycle dictated by
CORE releases
• Option B: CORE part done first, upper layer parts done
later in shorter cycles
