The document discusses integrating enterprise and software architectures. It provides an agenda that covers why the integration is important, an overview of IBM's architecture technologies, how to set up the integration, and what can be done with it. The integration allows enterprise architects, software architects, and infrastructure architects to link models and tools from different domains. This helps address common questions that arise across roles and improves collaboration. The document demonstrates how to set up and follow links between IBM Rational Software Architect and IBM Rational Design Manager.

Let’s revisit the integration problem…
…a win/win!
 Link-based model
 Data lives where it should
 Standards-based model
 Tool, solution, technology
agnostic
Flexibility and
choice!
The Semantic Web is regarded as an integrator
across different content, information applications
and systems.
