商品描述

Bridge the gap between theory and reality by implementing real-world examples using the Sparx EA tool and ArchiMate® 3.1 specification to develop sophisticated enterprise architecture models serving every unit in your organization

Key Features

- Discover the various artifacts that enterprise architects need to develop for stakeholders to make sound decisions
- Build a functional enterprise architecture repository that is rich in information, references, and metamodels
- Learn how to use Sparx Enterprise Architect from scratch

Book Description

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.

What you will learn

- Discover how enterprise architects can contribute to projects and departments within organizations
- Use Sparx Enterprise Architect to build a rich architecture repository
- Learn about the ArchiMate® 3.1 specification as you apply it in real-world projects
- Use the focused metamodel technique to build the information necessary for maintaining your repository's consistency and accuracy
- Understand the importance of keeping architectural artifacts simple yet eye-catching
- Define an operational model that fits your initial needs and expands as required

Who this book is for

This book is for enterprise architects at all architectural layers and practices of any maturity level. Many of the artifacts suggested in this book are inspired by The Open Group Architecture Framework (TOGAF®); however, familiarity with TOGAF® is not required. Whether you work within the business, applications, data, or technology layers, this book covers examples that apply to your work. Although not mandatory, experience modeling in Sparx Systems Enterprise Architect using any modeling language will be helpful. No prior knowledge of ArchiMate® is required to get started with this book.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

透過使用Sparx EA工具和ArchiMate® 3.1規範,實施真實世界的例子,以開發複雜的企業架構模型,服務組織中的每個單位,以彌合理論與現實之間的差距。

主要特點:

- 探索企業架構師為利益相關者制定的各種文檔,以做出明智的決策。
- 構建功能豐富的企業架構存儲庫,其中包含豐富的信息、參考和元模型。
- 從頭開始學習如何使用Sparx Enterprise Architect。

書籍描述:

大多數組織在定義和實現進化的企業架構實踐方面面臨挑戰,即使正確實施,這也可能是一個非常冗長的過程。例如,只有在開發人員從架構師那裡獲得必要的設計信息時,他們才能構建更好的解決方案,只有在了解這樣做的影響時,決策者才能在組織內進行適當的變更。

本書首先解決了企業架構實踐者面臨的問題,並提供了基於敏捷方法的企業架構解決方案,使用ArchiMate® 3.1作為行業標準,Sparx EA作為建模工具。通過一個虛構組織的案例,該組織有三個業務單位,每個單位對企業架構師有不同的期望。您將建立實踐,滿足每個業務單位的不同要求,並與他人分享知識,以便他們可以跟隨您的步驟。最後,您將學習如何將您開發的圖表和內容放入可以發布和與任何利益相關者共享的文件、演示文稿和網頁中。

通過閱讀本書,您將能夠建立一個支持組織每個部分的功能性企業架構實踐。您還將開發必要的技能,將您的企業架構存儲庫填充到參考和文檔中。

您將學到什麼:

- 發現企業架構師如何為組織的項目和部門做出貢獻。
- 使用Sparx Enterprise Architect構建豐富的架構存儲庫。
- 在實際項目中應用ArchiMate® 3.1規範。
- 使用專注的元模型技術構建維護存儲庫一致性和準確性所需的信息。
- 理解保持架構文檔簡單而引人注目的重要性。
- 定義符合您的初始需求並根據需要擴展的操作模型。

本書適合對企業架構的各個層面和各種成熟度水平的企業架構師。本書中提出的許多文檔建議受到The Open Group Architecture Framework (TOGAF®)的啟發;然而,不需要熟悉TOGAF®。無論您在業務、應用、數據還是技術層面工作,本書都涵蓋了適用於您工作的示例。雖然不是必需的,但有使用Sparx Systems Enterprise Architect進行建模的經驗,使用任何建模語言都會有所幫助。開始閱讀本書時不需要事先了解ArchiMate®。
