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.

Summary

In this chapter, we have covered all active and passive structural elements in the Technology Layer of ArchiMate®. That's a lot to digest in one sitting. Hopefully, we haven't overwhelmed you.

To recap, we've learned how to model technology environments, communication networks, and physical environments. We also picked up some tips on using diagram layers and tag values in Sparx. Practicing the techniques presented here provides the skills necessary to communicate the most important aspects of your technology environment without losing your audience in the details. Using the features of a tool such as Sparx can help you do this while still maintaining the details necessary for implementation.

In the next chapter, we will cover the behavioral elements of the Technology Layer. We will also use some of what we've learned here to take a deeper look at ABC Trading's enterprise.
