•Architecture is “the set of
descriptive representations about
an object”. [John Zachman]
•Enterprise Architecture is “the
holistic set of descriptions about
the enterprise over time“. [SIMEAWG]
•Enterprise Architecture is
modeling the enterprise. [L. Kappelman]

“Design or ' blueprint ' of a business that
depicts the components of a firm
employed in its operations,
interrelationships of those components,
information flows, and how each
component supports the objectives or the
strategy of the enterprise.”
