EA is becoming more and more irrelevant in an IT industry that no longer has 12 months to model everything.<br /><br />I've written a little on this as well (http://wildfauve.blogspot.com/2010/08/deconstructing-enterprise-architecture.html).Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17094166270356397084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3153693.post-18624323241169213872008-10-08T03:06:00.000-05:002008-10-08T03:06:00.000-05:00Catch up dude!

Zachman has done some major innovation and elaboration the past 4-5 years ... in the enterprise framework itself, elaborating it and the other three frameworks, in trainings and certification, and in generally making the entire concept more accessible. Plus there’s a growing body of research coming out of MIT, Gartner, MISQE, and elsewhere that indicates organizations that do EA perform better. Enterprise architecture is no joke Jeff and Zachman has definitely not stagnated either. Check it out at http://zachmaninternational.com/.<BR/><BR/>Best wishes,<BR/>Leon A.

Getting anything done that crosses silo's is like walking through a tar pit.<BR/>A lot of stuff written about EA is also beginning to sound like a mix between academics and MBA's. Very little substance, virtually no examples. <BR/>On the bright side - the salary is typically higher!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02669129803471103962noreply@blogger.com
