The concept of enterprise architecture
Share this post
We introduce and discuss the concept of Enterprise Architecture (EA) by analogy with general architecture from the field of civil engineering.
We motivate the need for, and benefits of EA for organisations. The second part of the video is mostly concerned with explaining the main components of an EA approach.
