Model Driven Enterprise Architecture
Enterprise Architecture (EA) is essentially a model based master plan for the organisation. It integrates business planning, governance, and business operations such as organisational structure, people, process and information, with enabling technical infrastructure including automated systems, software and databases. It is designed to model the assessment from current 'as-is' perspectives through to transformation driven future 'to-be' scenarios.
