1、Enterprise ArchitectureStrategy driven Enterprise ArchitectureAdrian CampbellSlide 2Enterprise ArchitectureWhat is Enterprise Architecture? Slide 3IT responding to Business needsTraditionally, ITs response to business requirements has been to give each user what they wanted, if possible when they wa
2、nted it. Applications were built according to the specifications of a particular constituency of users without much thought for the impact on the rest of the enterprise. And as long as the business operated as a collection of discrete business processes, that was okay. Unfortunately, this approach s
3、pawned a collection of discrete applications, with discrete and individual data formats. When the business needed to integrate those silo applications to support changing business processes or to integrate application and off the shelf products, chaos ensued.Slide 4IT response to ChaosThe response o
4、f IT was to become more precise, creating technology standards that appeared arbitrary to the business, requiring elaborate time consuming development processes and detailed documentation for new systems and changes to existing systems. While IT believed that they were imposing a formal discipline o
5、n a chaotic system, the business could only see that these stringent requirements stifled innovation and made it difficult for the business to be agile in response to sometimes rapidly changing market requirements.Slide 5Business response to ITFaced with seemingly arbitrary standards, it was not unc
6、ommon for the business to go its own way and develop applications in isolation from ITThis led to further chaos and complexities within the enterprise that interfered with the ability of the business to get services from the IT organisation.

8、ns is a renewed focus on business process management (BPM).This is now allowing business users to make immediate changes to their business process models (BPMN), combined with the technology to implement these changes in near real time, to a process orchestration and execution environment (BPEL).

12、egy into a future state vision and an architecture road map they can implement. Enterprise architecture is integrated with other strategic planning disciplines, such as programme/project and application portfolio and managementThe Enterprise Architecture ensures that the long-term vision of the busi
13、ness is preserved as the enterprise builds new business capabilities and improves on old ones.Slide 12Current to TargetEnterprise Architecture is an iterative process that produces four major deliverables:A future-state Enterprise Architecture reference model that realises the business strategy Curr

15、tateSlide 13Enterprise Architecture as StrategyAn Enterprise Architecture driven out of the business strategy provides the enterprise with the highest degree of alignment between the business and IT.The concept of Enterprise Architecture has expanded well beyond the traditional notion of technology
16、architecture. It is now the architecture of the whole enterprise. Slide 14Definition of Enterprise ArchitectureA definition of Enterprise Architecture is addressed in 2 constituent parts enterprise and architecture. The Open Group defines enterprise as follows:An enterprise is any collection of orga
17、nisations that has a common set of goals and/or a single bottom line. In that sense, an enterprise can be a government agency, a whole corporation, a division of a corporation, a single department, or a chain of geographically distant organisations linked together by common ownership. Gartner define
18、 architecture as follows;lThe grand design or overall concept employed in creating a system, as in the architecture of a city or a customer information system; also an abstraction or design of a system, its structure, components and how they interrelate lA family of guidelines (concepts, policies, p
19、rinciples, rules, patterns, interfaces and standards) to use when building a new IT capability. Slide 15Purpose of Enterprise ArchitectureEnterprise Architecture is designed to ensures alignment between the business and IT strategies, operating model, guiding principles, and the software development
20、 projects and service delivery. By taking a global, enterprise-wide, perspective across all the business services, business processes, information, applications and technology, Enterprise Architecture ensures the enterprise goals and objectives are addressed in a holistic way across all the applicat
21、ion development projects and their deployment into production.Slide 16EA ProcessSlide 17Gartner EA ProcessSlide 18Architecture DomainsArchitecture DomainsStrategy, Vision & PrinciplesBusiness ServicesBusiness Process ArchitectureOrganisation ArchitectureInformation ArchitectureApplication Architectu

Addresses these in terms of the Business and IT Strategies, Target Operating Model, Vision, Principles, Goals and Objectives. Slide 21Business ServicesConcerns the Product
24、s and Services that are offered and sold to customers and partners.Addresses these in terms of Business Services, Contracts and Value provided. Slide 22Process ArchitectureConcerns the transformations that are performed in the Enterprise answering the How questions.Addresses these in terms of the Bu
25、siness Processes, Activities, Workflows (Value Streams), Scenarios and Business Events.Slide 23Organisation ArchitectureConcerns the people perspective in the Enterprise answering the Who question.Addresses these in terms of the Locations, Business Actors (people and organisation units), Business Ro
26、les and Business Functions (responsibilities), from both an internal (staff, partners) and external (customers, agents) perspective.Slide 24Information ArchitectureInformation Architecture includes the knowledge, information and data that flows through the business processes and the data that is acc
27、essed and stored by applications.Answers the What question in the Enterprise Architecture. The What refers to the things or assets which the enterprise needs to know about, use or create. Slide 25Application ArchitectureAddresses the When question in the enterprise, in terms of interaction and dialo
28、gue.Answering the How question in terms of the calculations and algorithms needed to implement the transformations in the enterprise.Slide 26Technology ArchitectureTechnology Architecture defines the technologies and infrastructure that support the applicationsAddresses the Where questions in the en
29、terprise in terms of nodes, networks, devices, system software, communication infrastructure and persistent data storage.Slide 27PerformanceWhereas the Strategy, Vision & Principles provides the future direction for the Enterprise, the Performance Architecture is concerned with whether the goals and
30、 objectives have been achieved. These are addressed in terms of status, business results, performance metrics and measurements.Slide 28Traceability ViewSlide 29Levels of ConcernSlide 30TraceabilitySlide 31Cube ViewSlide 32The Enterprise Architecture isAn analysis tool to provide abstraction and mode
