Application Landscape Views and SOA

By Borjan Cace

Subtitled “Ideas on dealing with challenges posed by the proliferation of services/API connections”, Borjan Cace presents a thoughtful paper showing ways of addressing the complexity that arises within organisations as they develop, expose and consume an ever-increasing number of services and API’s.

The paper demonstrates how ArchiMate might be used to assist in this process of understanding, and how the language might also be extended to provide even more meaning and insight to Enterprise Architects who must make sense of these complex and rapidly evolving environments. This includes a link to a great three dimensional viewing platform to bring your ArchiMate and other architecture models to life in a new way.
