ITS DEADON

Mark and Associates ITS uses DEADON segmentation to enable business and IT governance of services based organizations by defining a segmentation model for the C-Level role to effectively manage complexity across the total scope of Enterprise Architecture. The model consists of 9 distinct architectural layers or what we call domain views.

  1. Information (Solutions) View--content, workflow, continuity
  2. Technical View--platforms, environments, DR, load, failover
  3. Security View--security models, firewalls, DMZ, registry, ID management, policy, directory, trust, repudiation, enforcement, authentication, authorization
  4. Development View--IDE, tools, process, build, configuration, defect/fix
  5. Enterprise View--governance, strategy, ROI, EAI, traceability
  6. Applications View--service, object, deployment, packaging, models
  7. Data View--CLP models/schemas, DBMS, BI, reporting, backup/recovery
  8. Operations (Business) View--business units, workflows, support, escalation
  9. Network View--communications, switches, routers, nodes, topology

By overlaying these views, identifying, mapping, and tracing dependencies becomes much more effective for change management, agility, EAI planning and e-governance within and across the ITS DEADON domains.

As exemplified below, decomposing tasks and scope of responsibility within the data architecture domain clarifies scope for the DB developer, the local tactical data architect, and the enterprise architect responsible for convergence with the strategic roadmap. This separation of concerns segmentation allow faster time to market by enabling more concurrency among work streams with confidence system integration will be successful.
