To achieve pervasive, sophisticated, wide, deep, joined-up architecture descriptions, we need to develop a new generation of EA tools and techniques. The fact is that in an enterprise of any complexity, the architecture of roles, processes, applications, flow of work and data, data stores, and data sources quickly exceeds the ability of any of us to hold in our minds effectively. We need powerful ways to capture, map, navigate, and trace linkages, interfaces, and change initiatives.
