Enterprise architecture frameworks organize, manage, and interrelate the wide variety of models used to structure and operate an enterprise. An enterprise architecture framework is a means to understanding an enterprise or class of enterprises by organizing and presenting artifacts that conceptualize and describe the enterprise. PUBLICATIONS Enterprise is a collective activity in a particular domain, with actors sharing a common purpose such as a business, a collection of businesses with a common market, a government agency, et cetera. Organization, a common synonym for enterprise, is defined here as the way things are organized. Architecture emphasizes the use oriented rather than the construction oriented aspects of the design of those enterprises. A framework is a structured container for holding and interconnecting things. For example, a framework for electronic components would both hold the circuit boards and provide for wiring between those boards. Models are formal artifacts developed and used by people or machines. In framework contexts, artifacts are sometimes called components to indicate that they are pieces of the entire framework. |
