Enterprise Architecture
(Description)
1. Enterprise Architecture links the
business mission, strategy , and
processes of an organization to its
IT strategy.
2. It is documented using multiple
architectural models or views that
show how the current and future
needs of an organization will be
met.
-Clinger Cohen

(Description)
3. It focuses on strategic
differentiators and working across
the enterprise, there is a unique
opportunity to create leverage and
synergies and avoid duplication
and inconsistencies across the
enterprise
-Clinger Cohen

Indicators of Useful Enterprise
Architecture

Architecture
• Clarity
There is simple, direct and consistent
visualization of the holistic models that
represent what to understand, change,
communicate and execute about the enterprise
purpose, organization, people, relationship,
performance, business, information and
technology.

Architecture
• Alignment
There is congruence on the fitted and connected
boundaries in the logical structure of
relationships between the components that
compose purpose, organization, process, data,
application and infrastructure of the enterprise.

Architecture
• Integration
There is clear and definitive view of lifecycles,
uniqueness and value of every systems that are
intended to be synchronized with the unified
structure of interoperation for the enterprise.

Architecture
• Adaptability
There is that ability to change or be changed to
fit changed circumstances of the enterprise of
what to achieve, preserve, avoid and eliminate.

(Output)
1. Accurate representation of the
business environment, strategy
and critical success factors
2. Comprehensive documentation of
business units and key processes
3. Views of the systems and data
that support these processes
-Clinger-Cohen

(Output)
4. A set of technology standards that
define what technologies and
products are approved to be used
within an organization,
complemented by prescriptive
enterprise-wide guidelines on how
to best apply these technology
standards in creating business
applications.
-Clinger-Cohen
