Das Zachman Framework ist ein 1987 von John Zachman konzipierter domänenneutraler Ordnungsrahmen zur Entwicklung von Informationssystemen.
Es bildet dabei einen Leitfaden, der Vorschläge enthält, welche Aspekte aus welchen Perspektiven Berücksichtigung finden sollten, um die IT-Architektur einer Unternehmung erfolgreich aufzustellen. Mit Hilfe dieser Modellierung kann sowohl die Dokumentation- als auch die Planung eines solchen Projekts unterstützt werden, wenn bspw. nachvollzogen werden soll, welche Entscheidungen welche technischen Umsetzungen nach sich gezogen haben.
The Zachman Framework is a framework for enterprise architecture, which provides a formal and highly structured way of viewing and defining an enterprise.
The Framework in practice is used for organizing enterprise architectural "artifacts" in a way that takes into account both:
who the artifact targets for example, business owner and builder, and
what particular issue for example, data and functionality is being addressed.
These artifacts may include design documents, specifications, and models.[3]
The Framework is in essence a matrix,[4]. It is named after its creator John Zachman, who first developed the concept in the 1980s at IBM. It has been updated several times ever since.[5]
Today 206 years ago, engineer John Augustus Roebling was born. He was best known for the design of the Brooklyn Bridge. Sadly Roebling passed away 14 years before the famous bridge in New York City was opened.
XRX is a new web development architecture that is a milestone in elegant simplicity. XRX stands for: XForms on the client REST interfaces and XQuery on the server Because XRX uses a single model for data (XML) it avoids the translation complexity of other architectures. The simplicity and elegance of XRX allows developers to focus on other value-added features of web application development and enables non-programmers to create a rich web interaction experience without the need to use procedural programming languages.
