What Is Enterprise Architecture? 2 Minute erwin Expert Explanation

[MUSIC PLAYING] Let's say you're building a city, a city planner. You must formulate your city's master plan, your vision of where people will live, work, and play, the services they'll need, how they'll get around. You'll have to follow zoning laws. If you want to keep your job, you can't build the park right next to the dump. Then there's the fire codes, restaurant inspections, employee certifications, and lots of other rules and regulations to think about. All these moving parts have to work well and in coordination with each other. And you have to plan for growth and get it right the first time because do overs will be mighty expensive. It turns out city planning is a lot like Enterprise Architecture. Your organization is in a constant state of change. Think about your products and services, your competition, your people, your processes, your technology, and business model. And all those government regulations in place today are sure to change tomorrow. While there's no way to predict all of this stuff, Enterprise Architecture does enable you to plan for it, showing you how all these moving parts, the connectivity between your business and your technology, work together to give you the data for smart decision making today and better planning tomorrow.
