A Federated Approach to A Federated Approach to Enterprise ArchitectureEnterprise Architecture

Federated Enterprise Federated Enterprise Architecture DefinitionArchitecture Definition

“Federated Architectures define common or shared architecture standards across autonomous program areas, enabling state government entities to maintain diversity and uniqueness, while providing interoperability. “

New York State Office of Technology – Glossary of Terms (2004)

“The idea of a Federated Enterprise is a practical way to employee architectural concepts in complex, multiunit Enterprises; however there is nothing magic happening. Someone has to figure out and actually create and manage what is to be Federal, that is, centralized, optimized relative to the overall Enterprise (or cluster), integrated, reused, etc. and conversely someone has to figure out what is not to be Federated, that is what is to remain local, sub-optimized relative to the Enterprise, unique to the business units.”

Federated Enterprise Architecture Federated Enterprise Architecture Definition (continued)Definition (continued)

“An approach to meet the challenges of technology-driven business integration among organizations. Federate Enterprise Architecture offers a framework for managing business collaboration across autonomous organizations.”

ebXML and Federated Enterprise Reference Architecture (EFERA) (2003)

“Large, complex organizations with independent lines of business (LOBs) that distribute the administrative and information technology (IT) functions among several local authorities. ”

Federated Enterprise Architecture Federated Enterprise Architecture Definition (continued)Definition (continued)

“A collective set of organizational architecture (as defined by the enterprise scope), operating collectively within the concept of federalism, in which governance is divided between a central authority and constituent units balancing organizational autonomy and enterprise needs. The central authority’s architecture focuses on the dynamics of economies of scale, standards, and the well being of the enterprise, while constituent units’ architecture has the flexibility to pursue autonomous strategies and independent processes.”
