Aggregated enterprise architecture wisdom
The Volkswagen Group has lofty goals of doubling sales worldwide by 2018. To help its global parent succeed, Volkswagen Group of America had to adopt standard yet flexible IT platforms, processes and architectures so it can build new capabilities just …
In the various previous posts about EA metamodels, we’ve been exploring some of the detailed structures for toolsets and the like at a very, very low-level. But what’s the big-picture here? What’s the point? So let’s step back for a moment, and look at real-world EA practice. Much of our work consists of conversations with […]
SOA is certainly not the only architectural approach that your enterprise will require. But it can smooth the alignment and adoption of other into an EA framework. So rather than reinvent the wheel, organizations should consider using a well-establishe…
And another delayed week’s-worth of Tweets and links. Usual and usual, preceded by usual. Enterprise-architecture and all the fun strategy-type stuff on business: chrisdpotts: RT @roygrubb: iPod. iPhone. iPad. Why Apple is Done Inventing New Devices. http://zite.to/o9pXGu #bmgen #bizarch SAlhir: RT @complexified RT @demingSoS “There is no point in asking #consumers – who do not […]
What would this ‘generic modelling metamodel’ look like? And how could we implement it? This continues the work from previous posts on this theme, such as ‘More detail on EA metamodel‘ and ‘EA metamodel and method‘.

This follows on from the earlier post ‘More detail on EA metamodel‘, and in particular part of a comment there from Stuart Boardman: I completely agree that method and governance should […]
Oops… badly behind on this, definitely need to do some catch-up. Oh well. A somewhat-delayed collection of Tweets and links, anyway. Usual this-that-and-the-other, with first the usual ‘Read more…’ link: Enterprise-architecture, business-architecture and all the business-big-picture themes: davidcushman: RT @OrenTodoros: Dude had to pay $250 for a stroller replacement part, so he 3D Printed it […]
Sometimes, I have a hard time being upbeat about the emergence of EA as a profession. This felling is especially acute when I come across a slick, well-prepared guide to Enterprise Architecture, written by an IT Architect, that is incomplete, ina…
Moving on to more detail on that EA metamodel. (By the way, a quick thank-you to Nic Plum and Sally Bean for really helpful peer-reviews on this. ) The legal bit: There’s a heck of a lot of unpaid work that’s gone into this, and also a lot of my own ‘prior art’ on these themes, […]

My earlier post ‘IT-centrism is killing enterprise-architecture‘ seemed to touch a nerve with quite a few folks: tetradian: [post] IT-centrism is killing enterprise-architecture http://bit.ly/p8kfqf (thx @dougnewdick) #entarch tonia_ries: The only thing that should be at the center of any business is the customer. @krcraft @tetradian krcraft: Agree, if staff also inc. as customers RT @tonia_ries […]
