EA is currently considered as a way to build relationships within business units and invigorate processes and capabilities to make organizations flexible and efficient in terms of managing change. While business leaders are using EA to capture business substructure and re-engineer business for digital transformation, organizations are utilizing enterprise architecture management systems to get a 360 degree view of technology delivery operations. This in turn is allowing organizations to understand and analyze the interconnected nature of a business--the organizational structure and process structure, right down to the infrastructure. With the help of EA, they can understand the key attributes required for analysis and maintain a holistic approach to information architecture, and evaluate data management technologies to support business case development. Various EA models can be analyzed using a variety of equational and structural algorithms for KPIs like TCO, ROI, compliance, risk, and availability in a complex business ecosystem. Without a doubt, EA works with business stakeholders and system architects to drive holistic technology implementation across programs. The architectural team constructing the future road needs to be trained continuously and stay up to date with the future trends. Moving ahead, Enterprise Architects will act as the catalyst to engineer and re-engineer complex and hybrid systems, managed IoT and ensure hassle free communications. On that note, we present to you the special edition on Enterprise Architecture. We are featuring 20 most promising EA Solution Providers, listing the best vendors and consultants who provide key technology solutions and services related to EA program.
