Enterprise Architecture is becoming increasingly important as organizations deal with AI adoption, growing data complexity and continuous digital transformation.
On September 9, 2026, AEA Hungary hosted an online webinar exploring some of the most important Enterprise Architecture trends for 2026 and beyond.
The webinar brought together an international perspective from Info-Tech Research Group with practical Enterprise Architecture experience from Atoll Technologies and SAMU. The full recording is now available to watch online.
Enterprise Architecture, Data and AI Trends
The keynote was presented by Andy Neill, Vice President of Global Services and Chief Architect at Info-Tech Research Group.
Andy has more than two decades of international experience in Enterprise Architecture and data. During his career, he has worked in senior roles at organizations including Siemens Consulting, the BBC, the UK Parliament and the NHS.
His presentation focused on the latest developments in Enterprise Architecture, data and AI, and what these changes mean for organizations in 2026 and beyond.
As AI becomes more deeply integrated into business processes and technology environments, Enterprise Architects increasingly need to understand not only individual systems, but also the relationships between applications, data, technologies and business capabilities.
Continuous Architecture Transformation with SAMU
The second part of the webinar moved from trends to practice.
Olivér Kocs, Sales Manager at Atoll Technologies, and Gábor Vinczellér, Head of Product Development and Senior Consultant, demonstrated how SAMU supports continuous architecture transformation.
The live demo showed how Enterprise Architects can use SAMU to:
visualize complex architecture landscapes,
understand dependencies between systems,
perform impact analysis,
and support transformation decisions with up-to-date architecture data.
Instead of maintaining isolated diagrams, SAMU uses a structured Enterprise Architecture repository as the basis for automatically generated visualizations and analysis.
This makes it easier to understand what may be affected when an application, technology or business capability changes.
Why Watch the Webinar?
The webinar combines two sides of modern Enterprise Architecture.
Andy Neill provides a broader view of where EA, data and AI are heading, while the SAMU demonstration shows how architecture teams can apply these ideas in everyday transformation work.
Watch the recording to explore both the strategic trends shaping Enterprise Architecture and a practical demonstration of SAMU in action.
