Overview of this book

Most organizations face challenges in defining and achieving evolved enterprise architecture practices, which can be a very lengthy process even if implemented correctly. Developers, for example, can build better solutions only if they receive the necessary design information from architects, and decision-makers can make appropriate changes within the organization only if they know the implications of doing so. The book starts by addressing the problems faced by enterprise architecture practitioners and provides solutions based on an agile approach to enterprise architecture, using ArchiMate® 3.1 as an industry standard and Sparx EA as the modeling tool. You'll learn with the help of a fictional organization that has three business units, each expecting something different from you as the enterprise architect. You'll build the practice, satisfy the different requirements of each business unit, and share the knowledge with others so they can follow your steps. Toward the end, you'll learn how to put the diagrams and the content that you have developed into documents, presentations, and web pages that can be published and shared with any stakeholder. By the end of this book, you'll be able to build a functional enterprise architecture practice that supports every part of your organization. You'll also have developed the necessary skills to populate your enterprise architecture repository with references and artifacts.

Figure 6.43 – Network-related elements

If you've been accustomed to communication network models produced in other model notations, your first impression of ArchiMate®'s coverage of the network may not be all positive. After all, there are only two elements and two link types in the ArchiMate® Technology Layer to represent a communication network. Other modeling languages include a plethora of elements to represent routers, switches, bridges, firewalls, and much more. They have links that represent specific aspects of a network, such as protocols, speeds, and connection types.

What may seem like a lack of coverage is not really a problem. The abstract nature of the technology device element type combined with the features and flexibility of Sparx provides a rich set of capabilities for network modeling in ArchiMate®. The details...
