Enterprise Architecture and IT Architecture 7,5 Credits

Course Contents

The course provides the knowledge and skills of applying a holistic and systemic perspective on enterprises and enterprise architecture (EA). In general, it will address EA in order to capture and structure relevant components for describing an enterprise, including its business and operation model, organizational structure, business processes, data, applications and technology - as well as the processes used for development of the EA as such. A number of architectural layers will be explained, e.g. the business architecture, the information architecture, the solution architecture, and the technology architecture. Enterprise Architecture Management (EAM) will be introduced as one of the key activities to keep the IT of an organization aligned with the business challenges and activities. Methods, standards and tools will be covered to construct and analyse conceptual enterprise models addressing various organizational design problems from different modelling perspectives. Examples of such perspectives are goals, processes, concepts, information, and enterprise information architecture. A connection will be established between to IT architectures and services and cloud computing.

- Enterprise architecture and enterprise architecture management
- Business and IT alignment
