From this week’s reading about EA, I understand that EA is the architecture of enterprise, covers the basis elements to build program together. It aims to bridge the gap between management decision stakeholders and operational team. My current organization, WAB has a long term 5 year ecosystem plan which include the school education plan and the technology plan together. I interviewed the elementary school principal, who strongly support the education plan should involve technology plan together, instead of separate them out. It’s because technology is everywhere in education, including academics (they have powerschool, tiger video, 1:1 iPad and 1:1 iMac, blogs, etc.), transportation, lunch, finance, HR, etc. So they cannot separate technology from the whole education plan. The whole education plan has 10 different fields that support all facets in school such as attendance, technology, bus, finance, teaching and learning, etc. EA helps us to see all the fields together, instead of separate them into small pieces. Therefore, developing the enterprise architecture is not a solitary activity and the enterprise architects need to recognize the interoperability between their frameworks and the rest of the business.
