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.

If you do not have a licensed copy, you can download a fully functional 30-day trial from the Sparx Systems website (https://sparxsystems.com/products/ea/trial/request.html). If you prefer to use another tool, you can do so, but you will need to figure out how to implement the examples in your tool of choice.

Installing Sparx is fairly straightforward for desktop users, as explained in this online video: https://sparxsystems.com/resources/show-video.html?video=gettingstarted-installingea. Corporate users need to consult their network admins for possible restrictions on installing software, and they will also need to get the proper connection string to the backend SQL database.

Because this is the first chapter to use Sparx Systems Enterprise...
