3 TOGAF and ArchiMate ArchiMate is the o pen standard fo r m o delling enterprise architecture, m aintained by The Open Gro up in the ArchiMate Fo rum. A perfect co m binatio n: Togaf: enterprise architecture process / method ArchiMate: modelling / analysis of TOGAF artefacts/deliverables Technology Application Business Representation Business object Data object Business service Business process Business role Application service Application interface Application function Infrastructure service Artifact Business interface System software Business actor Application component Infrastructure interface Node Network

4 Enterprise Architecture So m e basic co ncepts

5 Enterprise Architecture IEEE Std 1471: Architecture = structure(s) o f a system in term s o f co m po nents, their externally visible pro perties, their relatio ns, and the underlying principles Structure with a visio n

6 EA: Describing Coherence Information architecture Product architecture? Process architecture??? Application architecture Technical architecture?

7 What is Enterprise Architecture? A pro cess A pro duct For developing and using enterprise architecture in an organization the complete and consistent set of methods, rules and models, which will guide the (re)design, migration and implementation of business processes, organizational structures, information systems and the technical infrastructure within an organization Fo r m anaging change and co m plexity

8 Why Enterprise Architecture? Managing change and co m plexity: Aligning business and IT Outsourcing Impact analysis Project support (project start architectures) Portfolio management Communication with stakeholders Obtaining insight in current situatio n (as-is) So enterprise architecture as a to o l for communication for governance for innovation

9 Important notions (IEEE 1471) A stakeho lder is a perso n o r o rganisatio n with a ce rtain intere st in (part o f) an architecture A view is a representatio n o f a system fro m the perspective o f a set o f co ncerns o f o ne o r m o re stakeho lders. A view is what yo u see. A viewpo int is where yo u are lo o king fro m. It define s ho w to build a view, e.g. by m eans o f a tem plate. Diffe rent stakeho lders Have different interests and use different concepts Have different views Have different viewpoints On the basis of one consistent architectural model

10 Example viewpoint en view Air pho to Concern: development plan Stakeholder: City council Gro und pho to Concern: building permit Stakeholder: house owner

11 IEEE 1471 (summary) Stakeholder is important to 1..* is addressed to 1..* has 1..* Concern used to cover 1..* Viewpoint conforms to View participates in 1..* establishes methods for 1..* consists of 1..* Model

37 Viewpoints and views in ArchiMate Classificatio ns and exam ples

38 Less is more let s ask the architect to leave out this rubbish, then we will get a nice result!

39 Classification viewpoints ArchiMate product manager, CIO, CEO Designing Informing Details Coherence Overview customer, employee, others Goal Deciding Contents architect, software developer, business process designer

40 Viewpoint Types Viewpo ints fo r designing Viewpo ints fo r deciding typically used by architects in the design process Examples: Application diagram, Process diagram intended to support managers in making decisions Examples: landscape map, cross-reference table, analysis report Viewpo ints fo r info rm ing inform stakeholders about an architecture Examples: process illustration, animation, cartoon

41 Level of Detail Details Co he rence small part of an architecture with high level of detail e.g. for a software engineer designing and implementing a component, or process owner responsible for optimizing a process spans multiple aspects or layers and shows their relations e.g. for an operational manager responsible for IT support for a number of business processes Overview abstract, comprehensive view of multiple aspects and layers for enterprise architects and upper-level managers

46 ArchiMate and other languages ArchiMate: perfect starting po int fo r MDA and so ftw are develo pm ent ArchiMate incorporates the service paradigm ArchiMate has implementation relationships to process modeling languages (BPNM, BPEL) ArchiMate has implementation relationships to software engineering design languages (UML) ArchiMate co nnects architectural do m ains It has a broader scope, but less detail than UML and BPMN It does not replace specialized languages for different architectural domains, such as UML, BPMN and others
