Aggregated enterprise architecture wisdom
Bruce Silver, BPMN luminary, has recently posted a piece on BPMN and Business Architecture where, he says, “In the past year the ‘architects’ seem to have discovered BPMN.” WIth his usual meticulous style he dissects the difference betwee…
Another week – a busy one, this time. There were all the Tweets from the Open Group San Diego conference (previously posted here); but beyond that, two great back-and-forth conversations, on top of all the usual Tweets and links. Usual categories, of course: read more?
Enterprise-architecture, business-architecture, business-strategy, innovation and other ‘business’-type themes:
CreatvEmergence: “create without possessing, […]
One of the minor frustrations of the toolmakers’ life – in enterprise-architecture as much as in other fields – is that often we don’t see our tools in action when used by others. I’ve been lucky in that regard in my collaboration with Michael Smith, a consultant in organisational change who works in Mexico and other […]

The following a selected subset of the Tweets and links sent out by attendees and other from the Open Group (TOGAF) conference on enterprise-architecture, IT-security and cloud-computing.

tetradian: [post] Yes and no: a question of commitment http://bit.ly/fJUqcA #entarch #culture #responsibility
MartinHowitt: @tetradian if an explicit vision does not […]

We can also see this as the difference between yes and no; between for and against. In […]
A bit late this time – apologies. It’s, yes, another week’s worth of Tweets and links: usual categories, of course.
Enterprise-architecture, business-architecture, business-strategy and other ‘big-picture’ business-related items:
tetradian: [post] Models as decision-records (Enterprise Canvas) (for @ArchiTool) http://bit.ly/eKVBO7 #entarch #metamodel
ArchiTool: @tetradian Good post. Key words – story, capture, discuss, process, checklist. Capture in software? Words, pictures? Going […]
