Realize Enterprise Architecture with AWS and SAFe

By: Rajnish Harjika

Overview of this book

Agile implementation of enterprise architecture (EA) in the cloud is a powerful organizational tool, but it is challenging, particularly for architects who are used to on-premises environments. This in-depth guide will tell you all you need to know to reap the benefits of applying EA in your organization to achieve operational efficiency. Starting with an overview of the foundations of enterprise architecture, you'll see how it can be applied to AWS as well as explore the frameworks AWS provides for EA, such as the AWS Well-Architected Framework. That's not all – the book shows you how these frameworks align with The Open Group Architecture Framework (TOGAF) architecture development method (ADM) and the Zachman Framework so that you can choose the right fit for your organization. As you advance, you'll learn how to apply SAFe to make your organization agile as well as efficient. Once you've gotten to grips with the theory, you can explore use cases and take a quiz at the end of the book to test yourself and see how EA is applied in practice. By the end of this enterprise architecture book, you'll have the skills and knowledge required to apply EA in the cloud with AWS and drive your organization to become super-efficient and agile.

ADM architecture requirements management

Through the architecture requirements management process, ADM is continuously driven. Developers working in technology expertise areas such as software, hardware, electrical, electronics, and others develop operational value streams. Those involved in this role define, develop, test, and deploy solutions both internally and to external customers. Customer-centricity and design thinking enable companies to develop products that are right for their customers, and agility allows them to address market changes and emerging opportunities rapidly.

The software industry has embraced agility for many years. The SAFe process is flexible enough to be deployed at a variety of enterprise scalability levels. Behavior-driven development (BDD), test-driven development (TDD), agile testing, refactoring, and spikes are some of our advanced interests. The scaled agile software architecture supports evolutionary design and architecture by combining practices...
