What are EA Frameworks?
Enterprise Architecture Frameworks are classification schemes of architectures (governance architecture, business architecture, information architecture, technical architecture, human capital architecture, security architecture, system architecture, solution architecture, infrastructure architecture, etc.) and their important artifacts.
A Framework can be used as background to report one or more types of artifacts, such as the concepts that make up the architectures.
Framework for Management Views.
From Architecture Diagram to Management Report View
The first visualization shows a management report view of an enterprise framework diagram. It is not a dull, meaningless visualization of an architecture model, but a decision-supporting report view of the enterprise framework: red colors mean taking action now because the current situation is blocking the realization of goals!
You can, for example, build views by clicking away layers or filtering out specific information.
This example shows how you can and should, as an Enterprise Architect, report to your stakeholders the status of work in progress on EA, compliant to Enterprise Architectures.
Why Create Frameworks Examples?
This Enterprise Framework Example Diagram was created for you to demonstrate how effective it is to generate enterprise frameworks on Dragon1.
The second and third visualizations (ideal and realistic) show a conceptual view of the enterprise framework. It answers the question: What are the most essential concepts of our architectures within the framework?
Framework domains.
In the Framework, more than one domain is missing.

Dragon1 saves a lot of valuable time!
You immediately see why you need an EA Tool as an Enterprise Architect. Enterprise frameworks have so many possible views that you do not want to create and update every report view by hand when a manager asks for a new view for a new situation, aspect, or period.
No, you want your manager to present clickable enterprise frameworks and have your manager generate the views based on the repository's information by setting parameters like time.
