Aggregated enterprise architecture wisdom
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 […]
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‘. The legal bit: The aim is that this should contribute towards an open standard, and should not be used […]
How would this EA metamodel actually work? And why would we need it, given that we have more than enough frameworks and models already? 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 […]
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, […]
Time to get back to the themes from the post ‘More on that enterprise-architecture ‘help wanted’‘, with a focus on toolsets and metamodels. The usual approach to toolsets – just about any kind of toolset, as far as I can tell – is to describe the overall context, knock up a metamodel, and then build […]
Another somewhat-delayed week’s-worth of Tweets and links, organized in the usual way with the usual categories and the usual ‘Read more…’ break: Anything to do with enterprise-architecture and all the other usual business-big-picture stuff: tetradian: [post] The is-ness of business http://bit.ly/pR0YbC #entarch tetradian: [post] Questions on business-model to enterprise-architecture http://bit.ly/pD8pRZ #entarch #bizarch #bmgen (for @ArtBourbon) […]
Given the responses to my previous post ‘Guess I could do with some help here…‘, seems it’d be useful if I clarify a bit more what kind of help I most need. (Or we need, rather, as an industry and discipline: probably the only ‘I’-part here is that I seem to be one of the […]
In case you hadn’t noticed, I’ve been kinda pouring out the posts on enterprise-architecture and the like, over the past few weeks or so… (A few people have complained about the overload, and probably with good reason, too! Oh well. My apologies, anyway.) What’s happening for me is that it seems all of the work […]
It’s another week. Which means another (slightly-delayed) week’s-worth of Tweets and links. Usual categories, usual ‘Read more…’ link: Enterprise-architecture, business-strategy and all the business-big-picture stuff: jdevoo: How to set sustainability goals http://j.mp/qb6WX0 >> applying SMART principles #entarch jdevoo: Designing a sustainability dashboard? Modeling is not optional http://j.mp/p7PQA8 #entarch greblhad: Anyone has input on using http://ideascale.com/ […]
Catch-up time again, with another (somewhat delayed) week’s-worth of Tweets and links. Usual sort-of-categories in the usual sort-of way, with the usual no-quite-sort-of ‘Read more…’ link first: Business-oriented ‘big-picture’ stuff – enterprise-architecture, innovation, business-models, that kind of thing: unorder: New post – No fun at work: values in action http://is.gd/MIMMA4 >oops… espoused vs enacted values… […]
