Toolkit Presentation: Introducing Enterprise Architecture

 

one Gartner definition

Deborah Weiss

EA is a process discipline that is often misunderstood. Done well, it becomes part of how an organization makes decisions to direct its investments, such that the chosen business strategy is realized. The EA process bridges the gap that often exists between business strategy and implementation.

Welcome to Introduction to Enterprise Architecture!

Introduction to Enterprise Architecture (IST 497a) is a unique course development in conjunction with several leading corporations and industry associations. IST 497a is designed to be the first exposure to foundational enterprise architecture (EA) concepts and practices. The course sets the “common language” for EA discussions for professionals new to the EA field as well as functional business people, customers, suppliers, and others who desire an overview of enterprise architecture and the benefits it can bring to an organization. The course is not centered on a particular EA framework or methodology, but is designed to provide foundational knowledge and perspectives that apply to all organizations, regardless of the particular EA approach followed within the organization.

Students who complete this course will receive a certificate of completion from Penn State. Additional details may be obtained explaining how to register for and take an optional certification exam for a new industry certification associated with this course from the Open Group. Students may also earn graduate independent study credits toward the new online Master of Professional Studies Program in Enterprise Architecture at Penn State.

The course is a forty-hour, self-paced online educational program that provides access and interaction with a faculty member who was involved with the design and development of the course.

The course is organized into three main modules that consist of five to six supporting topics. These topics can be accessed via the Course Content link under the Lessons Tab in ANGEL. The first time you go to the course content page, you will need to log in with your Penn State ID. Once into the content, you can navigate it like a regular website. The activities for the course are located in ANGEL. Each topic has discussion activities and knowledge check questions. You can see the corresponding files in ANGEL.

Module 1: Introduction to Enterprise Architectural Concepts

This module introduces the foundational concepts behind enterprise architecture and discusses the business value that enterprise architecture brings to the organization. The module discusses the nature of complex organizations and provides an overview of the layers of the enterprise technology architecture.

Module 2: Initiating Enterprise Architecture

This module discusses fundamentals of planning for enterprise architecture initiatives, modeling the different layers of the enterprise, and building and maintaining an EA. The importance of governance and change management for EA success is also explored.

Module 3: Enterprise Architecture Implementation

This module discusses topics related to successful EA implementation. The importance of leadership and effective decision making to the success of EA is explored as well as the composition and management of the EA project team. Factors that influence the success of EA in an organization are discussed as well as concepts and issues surrounding the measurement of EA value and risk identification and analysis for EA initiatives. The module concludes with a comparison of popular EA frameworks and a discussion of “hybrid” EA frameworks.

We wrap up the course with an overview of the EA profession and future trends. We hope you enjoy the course!

WA1609 Enterprise Architecture Governance

Coming
Soon

This two-day workshop explores EA and the importance of implementing governance around such a monumental initiative. The adoption of a rigorous process for describing the current and future states of an enterprise’s maturity as well as defining a progressive roadmap should not be done in an ad-hoc fashion. This course will equip managers, architects, and team leads with a clear understanding of the challenges and risks associated with EA adoption as well as key strategies to mitigate these risks. Significant attention will also be given to the proper way to engender organizational change, champion the EA initiative, and best practices around managing enterprise architecture, business processes, and ensuring alignment with strategic objectives. EA can be adopted incrementally, contractually managed by policies and SLAs, and matured over time alongside the natural evolution of the enterprise. The key to this is governance.

Why a Business Architecture?

Hi

Why a Business Architecture?

May 14, 2009 by Max J. Pucher

The main goal of a Business Architecture (as a subset of Enterprise Architecture) is to enable the business to improve customer service quality through a better transparency, flexibility and adaptability of business operations. The market environment changes more rapidly and the use of technology by customers dramatically influences how a business can operate. Financial services calculation processes, marketing programs, business rules and content change already weekly rather than monthly. A BA includes both the definitions for a business strategy and business processes, which are linked through goals and outcomes.

However, if a business architecture has to be modeled, encoded and assembled by using a large number of tools and software components it cannot provide the benefits. Today’s heavily fragmented and hardcoded-integrated IT systems (including SOA) are too rigid to enable rapidly changing business environments. Most IT departments do not focus on adaptability and innovation because they have been requested to focus on lowering cost and system stability. Therefore, six month rollout cycles are the norm with three month being the exception. Business users expectations of stability and executive demands for lower cost are incompatible with the ability to achieve a flexible and adaptive, competitive IT infrastructure. Efficiency is still the main IT goal, with effectiveness a far-off second and agility being no more than an overused buzzword….

Architecture + Goals = Adaptive!

Architecture + Goals = Adaptive!

July 10, 2010 by Max J. Pucher

The discussion about ADAPTIVENESS in processes or knowledge work leads to interesting avenues. Here are a few recent examples:

Jim Sinur – Gartner: ‘Got Social Processes’ proposes a range of process types from structured to ‘guiding’ processes with more and more social interaction. I wonder how others feel, but to me SOCIAL (or its kin E20) by its definition means open and uncontrolled interactions of people and not managed processes. I have posted a graphic about a similar spread of interaction types in March 2010 when I commented on Jeanelle Hills BPM predictions, but I see them as different technologies and concepts. Jim says that he wants to stay away from a technology discussions, therefore he does not consider HOW these technologies would practically integrate and interact. However integrated, adding ‘social’ free-text-snippets to orthodox BPM does not improve processes or make them adaptive. Only completely new technology can provide all these variants of process interactions. To become adaptive and thus allow any form of case or process, the BPM technology needs enable the user creation of new goals, tasks, rules, content and participants during execution. That has nothing to do with being ‘social’ and it isn’t ‘ad-hoc’ processes. You can read more in ‘Mastering the Unpredictable’!

Let me state here again that adding SOCIAL capabilities does not provide the dynamics, flexibility and adaptiveness that knowledge work requires. If that wouldn’t be so, then Lotus Notes would be the one and only system because it provided those social features a long time ago, including forms and collaboration.
