E-MailEA, The "Logical" Way
Over the past 15 years, IT organizations have spent tens of millions of dollars developing enterprise architecture (EA) programs -- with lackluster tangible results to show for their investment. There are embarrassingly few EA success stories, yet many failures crowd the IT landscape. We are no closer to a consistent and commonly accepted definition of EA or a commonly accepted EA methodology today than we were 10 years ago. If anything, the field has diversified. As a profession whose central tenets promote common tools, methods, and practices, EA has done an amazingly poor job applying its own concepts to itself. As one frustrated but enlightened systems developer recently told me, "Architects don't eat their own dog food, why should I?"
