Generate an Enterprise Architecture Framework with Dashboard Demo

EA Framework Problems and Use Case

Enterprise Architecture Frameworks are diagrams and dashboards of essential value. Dragon1 software allows you to generate visualizations from various frameworks with Excel sheets, templates, and a JSON API and focus on high-quality data resulting in decision reports.

Above you see an interactive example of a generated Enterprise Architecture Framework in the Dragon1 Viewer.

Benefits of creating an EA Framework diagram are:

• Quick and clear communication of the roadmap for documenting EA
• Control over who is responsible for doing what
• Able to prioritize in what to document when

What do the Color Codes mean?

The color codes using the diagram mean the following:

• Green means: We have documented sufficient items for this category. (often over 90% is used for green)
• Orange/Amber means: We have documented insufficient items for this category. (often below 30% is used for orange)
• Red means: We have documented hardly any items for this category. (often below 10% is used for red)
• Blue means: We do not document items for this category.
• Black means: We do not know how much items should be documented for this category. Ergo: we are not in control here.

In the live interactive version, you can click on a category show in the diagram

Next a generated diagram is shown that presents a functional/domain grouping of the items.

If you click on an item, you get list of (top) items.

If you click on an item, you are shown a diagram where the item is used in and the documents/artifacts the item is used in.

If you want to (re)use your company data professionally, you can upload the data to your paid user account. Go to the Online Store to purchase your Dragon1 PRO user license. If you would like to purchase more paid user accounts for your team, please contact sales@dragon1.com.

You can create such an Enterprise Architecture Framework by doing the Dragon1 demo steps.

We have provided an Excel Sheet you can use to generate your own Enterprise Architecture Framework on the Dragon1 platform.

If you edit the diagram in the Viewer (click on the Edit button first), you can next click on the Dashboard button at the top button bar to measure all kinds of data.
