The digital transformation of our life changes the way we work, learn, communicate, and collaborate. Enterprises are presently transforming their strategy, culture, processes, and their information systems to become digital. The digital transformation deeply disrupts existing enterprises and economies. Digitization fosters the development of IT systems with many rather small and distributed structures, like Internet of Things, Microservices and mobile services. Since years a lot of new business opportunities appear using the potential of services computing, Internet of Things, mobile systems, big data with analytics, cloud computing, collaboration networks, and decision support. Biological metaphors of living and adaptable ecosystems provide the logical foundation for self optimizing and resilient run-time environments for intelligent business services and adaptable distributed information systems with service oriented enterprise architectures. This has a strong impact for architecting digital services and products following both a value-oriented and a service perspective. The change from a closed world modeling world to a more flexible open-world composition and evolution of enterprise architectures defines the moving context for adaptable and high distributed systems, which are essential to enable the digital transformation. The present research paper investigates the evolution of Enterprise Architecture considering new defined value-oriented mappings between digital strategies, digital business models and an improved digital enterprise architecture.
Presently, many companies are transforming their strategy and product base, as well as their culture, processes and information systems to become more digital or to approach for a digital leadership. In the last years new business opportunities appeared using the potential of the Internet and related digital technologies, like Internet of Things, services computing, cloud computing, edge and fog computing, social networks, big data with analytics, mobile systems, collaboration networks, and cyber physical systems. Digitization fosters the development of IT environments with many rather small and distributed structures, like the Internet of Things, Microservices, or other micro-granular elements. This has a strong impact for architecting digital services and products. The change from a closed-world modeling perspective to more flexible open-world composition and evolution of micro-granular system architectures defines the moving context for adaptable systems. We are focusing on a continuous bottom-up integration of micro-granular architectures for a huge amount of dynamically growing systems and services, as part of a new digital enterprise architecture for service dominant digital products.
Unternehmen sind derzeit dabei, ihre Strategie, ihre Prozesse und ihre Informationssysteme zu verändern, um ihren Digitalisierungsgrad zu erhöhen. Das Potenzial des Internets und verwandter digitaler Technologien wie Internet der Dinge, Services Computing, Cloud Computing, künstliche Intelligenz, Big Data mit Analysen, mobile Systeme, Kollaborationsnetzwerke und cyber-physikalische Systeme treibt neue Geschäftsmodelle an und ermöglicht sie. Die Digitalisierung führt zu einer tiefgreifenden Umwälzung bestehender Unternehmen, Technologien und Volkswirtschaften und fördert die Architektur digitaler Umgebungen mit vielen eher kleinen und verteilten Strukturen. Dies hat starke Auswirkungen auf neue Wertschöpfungsmöglichkeiten und die Gestaltung digitaler Dienste und Produkte, die durch die Nutzung einer service-dominanten Logik gesteuert werden. Das Hauptergebnis des Buchkapitels erweitert Methoden für integrale digitale Strategien um wertorientierte Modelle für digitale Produkte und Dienstleistungen, die im Rahmen eines multiperspektivischen digitalen Unternehmensarchitektur-Referenzmodells definiert werden.
