Evolving an important theme I've been working on and presenting all year, this new deck summarizes how enterprise architecture and large scale technology-based business solutions must transform to be more effective in the 21st century.
Contains material on a hypothesis for what's wrong with today's EA as well as potential solutions of merit such as emergent architecture, WOA, enterprise REST, open supply chains (APIs), mashups, and other models.
Presented this week in Oslo Norway to Bouvet's enterprise architecture council.
The document provides an overview of the Department of Defense Architecture Framework (DODAF). DODAF defines a common approach for describing and comparing enterprise architectures across the DoD. It facilitates the use of common principles, assumptions, and terminology. DODAF consists of 26 products organized into four views - All Views, Operational View, Systems View, and Technical Standards View - to comprehensively document architectures. Future evolution areas include defining a DODAF object model and ontology to facilitate tool interoperability and sharing of architecture data.
Model-driven development (MDD) differs from model-based development and asks for agile development practices. It requires a standardized architecture to guide modeling and implementation, and specialized tools for defining modeling languages, transformations, and generating code. MDD leads to new roles for meta teams who build modeling tools and project teams who use these tools to develop applications. It has the potential to better align business and IT but also faces resistance due to the costs of learning and maintaining modeling tools.
The document discusses three case studies of SOA implementations:
1. Integrating legacy systems at Concur for improved reporting using an iterative development approach with WSO2 tools.
2. Building a national SOA in Denmark (OIO SOI) for simplified e-business using a registry, transport protocols, and standard XML.
3. Integrating multiple IT management systems using an event-driven architecture with adapters, a message broker, and master data services.
Software Architecture: views and viewpointsHenry Muccini
This is an introductory lecture to Software Architecture Views and Viewpoints, part of the Advanced Software Engineering course, at the University of L'Aquila, Italy (www.di.univaq.it/muccini/SE+/2012)
1. The document discusses Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) and its key characteristics.
2. It compares SOA to past architectures like application architecture and enterprise architecture.
3. The core characteristics of SOA include promoting loose coupling, reuse, and interoperability through services based on open standards.
Adopting a Canonical Data Model - how to apply to an existing environment wit...Phil Wilkins
This document discusses strategies for implementing a canonical data model in an existing SOA (service-oriented architecture) environment. It covers assumptions about the current SOA estate, the value of adopting a canonical model, technical strategies needed like interface versioning and transition states, and challenges around abstraction versus endpoint needs. The key points are that a canonical model provides semantic and structural consistency across services, reduces design effort, and enables more information-rich integrations, but the transition requires addressing issues like supporting multiple interface versions and legacy systems.
Software Architecture: introduction to the abstractionHenry Muccini
The document provides an introduction to software architecture concepts including:
- Software architecture is defined as a set of components and connectors communicating through interfaces along with architecture design decisions.
- Multiple views are used to describe architectures including logical, process, deployment, and more.
- Architectural styles like pipe-and-filter and layered styles guide architecture design.
- Careful architecture design is important as it impacts system properties like performance, scalability, and testability.
BPM & Workflow in the New Enterprise ArchitectureNathaniel Palmer
The document discusses workflow and business process management standards. It defines key standards like BPMN, XPDL, BPEL, Wf-XML, and BPAF. These standards address areas like process modeling notation, process definition formats, executable processes, runtime integration between processes, and analytics formats. The goal of these standards is to enable business-level agility by allowing businesses to change processes without programming through separation of responsibilities between business and IT.
Software is eating the world and MDD should be in the driving seatJohan den Haan
Software is eating the world! Every company is becoming a software company. If companies don’t, they cease to exist. Just imagine: you are a thermostat maker and suddenly you have Google as a competitor (via its Nest acquisition). This is just one of the many recent examples.
Interestingly a lot of the innovations in the software industry are fuelled by abstraction and automation, concepts that are well-known in the MDD community. As the world is awakening to these concepts there is a clear opportunity (and need!) to bring MDD to a much broader audience.
In this keynote we will analyse what’s happening on all layers of the software stack. We will also explore how we can become more relevant as an MDD community. There is a ton of knowledge and experience in our community that could move the needle for a lot of companies, but are we using it? We need to stop doing what we always do. We need bold ideas and the courage to start a journey with no clear endpoint!
This document provides an introduction to software architecture design. It discusses key concepts like the relationship between requirements and architecture, architecture styles, quality attributes, and tradeoff analysis. The document is divided into multiple parts that cover topics such as an overview of software architecture, common architecture styles, quality attributes, and some rules of thumb for architecture design.
In this presentation Johan den Haan (head R&D Mendix) talks about the Mendix approach towards Model-Driven Development. Bridging the gap between theory and practice, den Haan explains how Mendix enables business analysts to develop complex Service Oriented Business Applications (SOBAs) starting from a process design and guided by a modeling methodology and appropriate tools.
Software Architecture Views and ViewpointsHenry Muccini
This document discusses views and viewpoints in software architecture. It defines a viewpoint as a way of looking at a system that defines conventions for constructing views. A view is the result of applying a viewpoint to a system. The document discusses how stakeholders have different concerns that shape the viewpoints and views. It provides examples of viewpoints like the Rational Unified Process 4+1 views. The document emphasizes that using multiple views aligned with stakeholder concerns has become a standard practice in architecture description.
Model-Driven Development, the end of the test profession?Johan den Haan
I used this presentation in my keynote talk at the Dutch Testnet 2010 event. For an audience of 500+ professional software testers I explained the basic concepts of Model-Driven Development and gave some food-for-thought about the impact of MDD on the test profession.
Citytech Application Modernization Using JBoss SeamCITYTECH, Inc.
In this presentation, CITYTECH, a Red Hat JBoss Advanced Business Partner, shares how they leveraged the JBoss Seam framework to rapidly modernize legacy applications.
1) The document discusses an agile approach to architecture in software development that focuses on individuals, interactions, working software, and responding to change over rigid processes and comprehensive documentation.
2) It argues that treating architecture as a role filled by few rather than a shared perspective can be dangerous, and that agile principles like small cross-functional teams, test-driven development, and value-driven prioritization allow architecture to help manage complexity and risks.
3) Applying agile concepts to architecture can help teams deliver value early while reducing risks and avoiding overengineering.
This document discusses the key activities involved in incepting an enterprise application, including enterprise analysis, business modeling, requirements elicitation and analysis, requirements validation, and planning and estimation. Enterprise analysis involves identifying business opportunities and stakeholders. Business modeling helps understand business processes and includes creating AS-IS and TO-BE models. Requirements elicitation captures functional and non-functional requirements through use cases and prototypes. Requirements validation ensures requirements meet business needs. Planning and estimation prepares project plans and estimates costs and effort based on techniques like use case points and function points.

It covers common architectural styles, inputs/outputs of the design process, guidelines for layered designs including presentation, business, data and service layers. It also summarizes common application archetypes like web, rich client, mobile and service-oriented applications, and provides considerations for designing each type.
This document discusses fundamental concepts of software architecture, including:
- Breaking systems down into modular components through techniques like encapsulation, contracts, and decoupling.
- Scaling systems up through parametrization, simplicity, decentralization, and standard libraries.
- Conceptualizing at a higher level of abstraction using techniques like abstraction, hierarchical decomposition, specialization, formalization, and viewpoints.
- Best practices like making dependencies and transformations explicit, limiting freedom to avoid side effects, and testing semantics rather than syntax.
Architecture design in software engineeringPreeti Mishra
The document discusses software architectural design. It defines architecture as the structure of a system's components, their relationships, and properties. An architectural design model is transferable across different systems. The architecture enables analysis of design requirements and consideration of alternatives early in development. It represents the system in an intellectually graspable way. Common architectural styles structure systems and their components in different ways, such as data-centered, data flow, and call-and-return styles.
This document discusses how adopting "Web-scale" approaches to enterprise software systems can increase their longevity, reduce costs, and better align the systems with business needs over time. Key aspects of developing Web-scale software include economies of scale, longevity of over 15 years, and using uniform resources as the architectural abstraction. Treating all code, data, and computational results as uniform resources allows the software to evolve efficiently through reuse. This approach can reduce total costs of ownership over the long run by extending useful lifetimes of systems to over 15 years compared to typical 4-6 years currently.
This document is a presentation from IBM on transformation and financial challenges in the public sector.

This document outlines steps for designing a scalable web architecture. It begins with launching a minimum viable product on Amazon EC2 with a MySQL database. As traffic increases, vertical scaling is introduced but has limits. Horizontal scaling with multiple AWS instances, Elastic Load Balancing, and MySQL master-slave replication is presented as an alternative. Further optimizations like content delivery networks, client-side rendering, compression, and caching are suggested to improve performance and speed. As data grows, a NoSQL database like MongoDB is proposed to replace MySQL. The minimum viable scalable setup combines these techniques and technologies.

Aw (3) webinar serverless-fisher-rymerVMware Tanzu
Developers are excited about serverless computing, and rightfully so. With serverless, developers can spend more time writing code and less time worrying about, you guessed it, servers! But is serverless the right abstraction for every workload? How does serverless differ from an application platform? And despite the name, there need to be servers somewhere … Who’s managing them?
Join us for a look at serverless computing and what it means for both developers and operations teams in the enterprise. In this webinar, Guest Speaker Forrester VP and Principal Analyst John Rymer and Pivotal’s Mark Fisher will cover:
- What serverless is (and what it isn’t)
- The current serverless open source and market landscapes
- How serverless fits into modern application infrastructure
- What workloads are best suited to serverless (and which aren’t)
- Advice to developers (and operations teams) for getting started with serverless
Presenters : Mark Fisher, Pivotal and John Rymer, Forrester
This document discusses the value of smart business networks. It provides examples of how networks like TheBigWord provide fast translation services by linking linguists. Key components of smart business networks are identified as customer interaction, modularity, information sharing, network structure, orchestration, and a business operating system infrastructure. Networks allow combining modules quickly to design customized solutions. Maintaining a wide network horizon and understanding network structures are important but bridging positions are not always sustainable.

Mitigating the Impact of State Management in Cloud Stream Processing SystemsScyllaDB
Stream processing is a crucial component of modern data infrastructure, but constructing an efficient and scalable stream processing system can be challenging. Decoupling compute and storage architecture has emerged as an effective solution to these challenges, but it can introduce high latency issues, especially when dealing with complex continuous queries that necessitate managing extra-large internal states.
In this talk, we focus on addressing the high latency issues associated with S3 storage in stream processing systems that employ a decoupled compute and storage architecture. We delve into the root causes of latency in this context and explore various techniques to minimize the impact of S3 latency on stream processing performance. Our proposed approach is to implement a tiered storage mechanism that leverages a blend of high-performance and low-cost storage tiers to reduce data movement between the compute and storage layers while maintaining efficient processing.
Throughout the talk, we will present experimental results that demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach in mitigating the impact of S3 latency on stream processing. By the end of the talk, attendees will have gained insights into how to optimize their stream processing systems for reduced latency and improved cost-efficiency.

Are you interested in dipping your toes in the cloud native observability waters, but as an engineer you are not sure where to get started with tracing problems through your microservices and application landscapes on Kubernetes? Then this is the session for you, where we take you on your first steps in an active open-source project that offers a buffet of languages, challenges, and opportunities for getting started with telemetry data.
The project is called openTelemetry, but before diving into the specifics, we’ll start with de-mystifying key concepts and terms such as observability, telemetry, instrumentation, cardinality, percentile to lay a foundation. After understanding the nuts and bolts of observability and distributed traces, we’ll explore the openTelemetry community; its Special Interest Groups (SIGs), repositories, and how to become not only an end-user, but possibly a contributor.We will wrap up with an overview of the components in this project, such as the Collector, the OpenTelemetry protocol (OTLP), its APIs, and its SDKs.
Attendees will leave with an understanding of key observability concepts, become grounded in distributed tracing terminology, be aware of the components of openTelemetry, and know how to take their first steps to an open-source contribution!
Key Takeaways: Open source, vendor neutral instrumentation is an exciting new reality as the industry standardizes on openTelemetry for observability. OpenTelemetry is on a mission to enable effective observability by making high-quality, portable telemetry ubiquitous. The world of observability and monitoring today has a steep learning curve and in order to achieve ubiquity, the project would benefit from growing our contributor community.

Best Practices for Effectively Running dbt in Airflow.pdfTatiana Al-Chueyr
As a popular open-source library for analytics engineering, dbt is often used in combination with Airflow. Orchestrating and executing dbt models as DAGs ensures an additional layer of control over tasks, observability, and provides a reliable, scalable environment to run dbt models.
This webinar will cover a step-by-step guide to Cosmos, an open source package from Astronomer that helps you easily run your dbt Core projects as Airflow DAGs and Task Groups, all with just a few lines of code. We’ll walk through:
- Standard ways of running dbt (and when to utilize other methods)
- How Cosmos can be used to run and visualize your dbt projects in Airflow
- Common challenges and how to address them, including performance, dependency conflicts, and more
- How running dbt projects in Airflow helps with cost optimization
Webinar given on 9 July 2024
Kief Morris rethinks the infrastructure code delivery lifecycle, advocating for a shift towards composable infrastructure systems. We should shift to designing around deployable components rather than code modules, use more useful levels of abstraction, and drive design and deployment from applications rather than bottom-up, monolithic architecture and delivery.

4. Software architecture
– The definition of the fundamental structure
and properties of software systems:
Components, resilience, scalability,
adaptability, reliability, changeability,
maintainability, extensibility, security,
technologies, standards, and other key
constraints.
6. Many sophisticated architectural
frameworks exist today
• 4+1
• Department of Defense Architecture Framework (DODAF)
• UK Ministry of Defence Architectural Framework (MODAF)
• The Open Group Architecture Framework (TOGAF)
• Zachman framework
• Federal Enterprise Architecture
• Reference Model of Open Distributed Processing (RM-ODP)
• Service-Oriented Modeling Framework (SOMF)
8. Areas where traditional
EA models often struggle
• Don’t respond to change quickly enough
• Aren’t aligned with current business reality
• Lack of focus on driving consumption (or network
effects)
• Too centralized and isolated
• Expensive and resource-intensive
• Overengineered in the wrong places. Excessively
constraining.
11. Today’s Software Architectures
Are Also Extremely Sophisticated
• Highly distributed and federated
• Often have a social architecture
• Built from cutting edge ingredients
Example: http://clickatell.com
• Have to scale globally
• Set with expectations that are very high for

12. There’s A Lot To
Master Today To
Architect Credible
Solutions:
13. • Some of this is around
what we call “2.0”
• Peer production and crowdsourcing
• Owning your classes of data on the network
• Using new distribution models to leverage
the Web as your platform
• Social systems
• Open supply chains and 3rd party sourcing
(http://programmableweb.com)
15. But existing integration models
have been challenged
• Most SOA initiatives are delivering low ROI to the business
• The reasons are many but boil down to:
– Lack of engagement: Focus on technology instead of business
problems.
– Slow adaptation: Top-down enterprise architecture moves slower than
the environment changes.
– Low levels of use: Important avenues of SOA consumption and
production points are often excluded from participation.
16. The results of a large new
SOA effectiveness study:
•“It has become clear to me
that SOA is not working in
most organizations.”
– Anne Thomas Manes,
Burton Group
17. Demand for Breadth
Integration
• “48 percent of the
CIOs we surveyed
said that they plan to
implement service-
oriented
architectures for
integration with
external trading
partners this year.” –
McKinsey & Co.
18. And we now have real-world experience with
traditional means of connecting to our data
• Traditional Web services
was a good first try but has
a long list of challenges for
the outcomes we desire
today.
• The model of the Web has
continued to teach us about
how to structure
information and services.
20. Strange Attractors: Similarities
between Web 2.0 and SOA
• Web 2.0 • SOA
– Software as a service – Software as services
– Interoperability based on
– Interoperability based on Web heavyweight standards
principles
– Applications as platforms
– Applications as platforms – Permits unintended uses
– Encourages unintended uses – Composite Apps
– Mashups – Little user interface guidance
– Little prescription of user
– Rich user interfaces participation
– Architecture of Participation

23. Enabling New
Consumption Scenarios
• Cut-and-Paste deployment
anywhere on the Intranet
• Consumption of the SOA in
any application that can use
a URL
• Discovery of data via search
• Integration moves out of
the spreadsheet
24. Recent technological
innovations coming primarily
from the online world
• Cloud computing
• Utility/grid/Platform-as-a-service
• Non-relational databases
• S3, CouchDB, GAE Datastore, Drizzle, etc.
• New “productivity-oriented” platforms
• RIA: Flex/AIR, JavaFX
• Stacks: Rails, CakePHP, Grails, GAE, iPhone, etc.
• Web-Oriented Architecture
25. Changes to the processes
that create architecture
• Increasing move to assembly and integration
over development of new code
• Perpetual Beta and “extreme” agile
• Community-based development and
“commercial source”
• Product Development 2.0
28. Benefits
• Dynamic response and adaptation to
change
• Architecture supported and driven widely
by local users
• Less waste
• More access to opportunity
• Better fit to business needs
31. Motivations for
Open Supply Chains
• Increase reach and head off
competition
• Tap into innovation
• Grow external investment
• Cost-effectively scale business
relationships
• Going from 10s to thousands of
integrated partners
32. Example: Amazon
• 1st Gen. Product: E-commerce store
– No differentiation
– Scaling of a single site
– Single site
• 2nd Gen. Product: E-commerce platform
– 55,000 partners using their e-commerce APIs live
– Scaling of the Web
• 3rd Gen. Product: A series of Web platforms
– Simple Storage Service (S3)
– Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) EC2 S3
– Mechanical Turk (Mturk)
– Many others
– 300K businesses build on top of what they’ve produced
• 2nd and 3rd generation platforms generate large net revenue
34. The Market Share
Opportunity
• The vast majority of Internet user activity is
elsewhere, on 3rd party Web sites and applications
• If firms could reach this traffic, the growth potential is
as large as the Web itself
• Reaching this traffic before competitors do can
result in successful marketshare “lock-out”
• Businesses able to cost-effectively integrate with a
large number of partners to grow
• Access and offer value to existing ecosystems of
customers

38. Key API Goals
• Leveraging existing investments as much as
possible (reduce rework in design and architecture)
• Protect intellectual property around proprietary
capabilities
• Select API model that will result in 1) the most
developer uptake and 2) access to the largest
possible audience
• Selecting a discriminating factor (rich vs. reach)
• Scope: Graduated capability vs. full initial API
39. Long-term future usage

41. Reasons Developers Select
APIs
Key to initial adoption Key to long-term adoption
• Provides access to • Reliable, well-known, scalable
functionality not possible provider that is trusted
to develop internally
• Developers can get answers to
• Easy to use and integrate
questions, support, and
with
problems fixed when bugs are
• Good documentation and found
easy to get started
• Strong user base for 3rd party
developers to tap
42. “Platforming” Your
Business
• Requires opening the server-side to 3rd party developers
• Allowing the construction of widgets and Web apps
offering some or of all of your functionality by external
partners
• Harnessing the innovation on the network
• Generating the greatest potential reach, competitive
lock-out, market share, and revenue
• Warning: Must maintain control of hard-to-recreate data
43. Open API Challenges
• Foreign business model for traditional companies
• Requires full-spectrum support from the business
(marketing, sales, customer service, technical
support, etc.)
• Successful monetization strategies vary greatly
• The biggest successes are firms which create a
well-funded dedicated business division
44. Open Supply Chains:
The bottom line
• Good repeatability
• Can be costly
• Unproven in some
industries (yet)
• Proven ROI
(example: $300M+
net revenue)
Strategic
Industry Play
45. High Velocity Processes:
The Web’s Version of Agile
• Shadow Apps for real-
time feedback
• Customer-Sampling
and Live Testing
• Granular Versions
(constant evolution)
• Daily, even hourly,
releases
49. 2.0 models are beginning
to transform everything
• Product Development
• Marketing and Advertising
• Operations
• Customer Service
50. The network is consistently
proving to be the best
solution for many classes of
problems
51. So how do we
re-imagine our
software
architecture for
the 21st century?
52. Challenges to Transitioning to
New Architectural Modes
• Innovator’s Dilemma
• “How do we disrupt ourselves
before our competition does?”
• Not-Invented Here
• Overly fearful of failure
• Deeply ingrained classical software culture
• Low level of 2.0 literacy
53. What we often see in
the marketplace today
• Too many copy-cat methods
• Failure of imagination and courage
• New architectural concepts as an after-
thought. Or tacked on as a “checklist” item.
• Companies that pay lip service to
innovation but are having trouble or
unwilling to make the necessary changes
54. Key Lesson:
We now have a
fundamentally new and
better set of lenses through
which to look at leveraging
value on the network:
55. • Push to pull systems
• Web 2.0 design patterns and business
models
• New modes of software, platforms, and
architectures
• Productivity-Oriented Platforms
• Web-Oriented & Emergent
Architecture
• New Distribution Models
56. It’s time to change
our DNA
• Moving from the 20th century towards
21st century businesses
• Deeply understanding the network and its
profound potential for creating growth and
building value
• Putting proven new models into the core of
our lines of business and enterprise
