ARCHIMATE TOOL WORKSHOP

Course outline

2 days

Duration

2 days

Introduction

ArchiMate is a modeling language designed to make the inner-workings of corporations efficient. Developed by The Open Group, this language uses clear terminology to visually map out connections within a business. Enterprise architecture is a common word for these connections.

ArchiMate makes it possible to see which departments and operations are related to others. This standard language describes how the business is structured, its processes, how information flows, its technical infrastructure, and the IT systems.

Archi is a free, open source, cross-platform tool to create ArchiMate models. The Archi modelling tool is targeted toward all levels of Enterprise Architects and Modelers. It provides a low cost to entry solution to users who may be making their first steps in the ArchiMate modelling language, or who are looking for a free, cross-platform ArchiMate modelling tool for their company or institution and wish to engage with the language within a TOGAF or other Enterprise Architecture framework. Since its introduction, Archi has been widely adopted for real-world use in the commercial and educational sectors and is used in-house by major global companies and consultants. It is rapidly becoming the de facto open source ArchiMate modelling tool.

The ArchiMate modelling language is an open and independent Enterprise Architecture standard that supports the description, analysis and visualization of architecture within and across business domains.
