Summary

Throughout this chapter, we have created and vetted the documentation that we will use to execute our architecture project. There is still some refinement to do before we can fully begin that execution, though. For example, we will need to work with the various SMEs to create detailed implementation plans for subsets of our blueprint, and we will also need to make sure we vet the plan with technical stakeholders. We will do this iteratively as we move into the implementation phase in Chapter 7, Execution – Applying Architecture Models.

In the next chapter, we will cover the steps required to do the same pre-implementation artifacts for applications. Because the application architecture is different enough from the enterprise architecture that it has its own standards, deliverables, design, and modeling languages, we will discuss how to integrate security into those types of projects in a manner parallel to what we’ve done in this chapter. From there, we will...
