What is the difference between an information architecture

Information Architecture has come within reach of to designing clear, comprehensible communications by giving care to structure, context, and arrangement of data and information. Mainly refers to websites and intranets, including classification and navigation schemes.

An information technology infrastructure though, is the base or establishment for the release of information to support programs and management. The infrastructure contains elements upon which an agency's information technology activities are dependent.

An agency must therefore define, execute, and supervise these infrastructure elements to effectively utilize information technology.
