Big Data und Cloud Systeme werden zunehmend von mobilen, benutzerzentrierten und agil veränderbaren Informationssystemen im Kontext von digitalen sozialen Netzwerken genutzt. Metaphern aus der Biologie für lebendige und selbstheilende Systeme und Umgebungen liefern die Basis für intelligente adaptive Informationssysteme und für zugehörige serviceorientierte digitale Unternehmensarchitekturen. Wir berichten über unsere Forschungsarbeiten über Strukturen und Mechanismen adaptiver digitaler Unternehmensarchitekturen für die Entwicklung und Evolution von serviceorientierten Ökosystemen und deren Technologien wie Big Data, Services & Cloud Computing, Web Services und Semantikunterstützung. Für unsere aktuellen Forschungsarbeiten nutzen wir praxisrelevante SmartLife Szenarien für die Entwicklung, Wartung und Evolution zukunftsgerechter serviceorientierter Informationssysteme. Diese Systeme nutzen eine stark wachsende Zahl externer und interner Services und fokussieren auf die Besonderheiten der Weiterentwicklung der Informationssysteme für integrierte Big Data und Cloud Kontexte. Unser Forschungsansatz beschäftigt sich mit der systematischen und ganzheitlichen Modellbildung adaptiver digitaler Unternehmensarchitekturen - gemäß standardisierter Referenzmodelle und auf Standards aufsetzenden Referenzarchitekturen, die für besondere Einsatzszenarien auch bei kleineren Anwendungskontexten oder an neue Kontexte einfacher adaptiert werden können. Um Semantik-gestützte Analysen zur Entscheidungsunterstützung von System- und Unternehmensarchitekten zu ermöglichen, erweitern wir unser bisheriges Referenzmodell für ITUnternehmensarchitekturen ESARC – Enterprise Services Architecture Reference Cube – um agile Mechanismen der Adaption und Konsistenzbehandlung sowie die zugehörigen Metamodelle und Ontologien für Digitale Enterprise Architekturen um neue Aspekte wie Big Data und Cloud Kontexte.
The Internet of Things, enterprise social networks, adaptive case management, mobility systems, analytics for big data, and cloud services environments are emerging to support smart connected products and services and the digital transformation. Biological metaphors of living and adaptable ecosystems provide the logical foundation for self-optimizing and resilient run-time environments for intelligent business services and related distributed information systems with service-oriented enterprise architectures. We are investigating mechanisms for flexible adaptation and evolution for the next digital enterprise architecture systems in the context of the digital transformation. Our aim is to support flexibility and agile transformation for both business and related enterprise systems through adaptation and dynamical evolution of digital enterprise architectures. The present research paper investigates digital transformations of business and IT and integrates fundamental mappings between adaptable digital enterprise architectures and service-oriented information systems. We are putting a spotlight with the example domain – Internet of Things.
Enterprise architecture (EA) is useful for effectively structuring digital platforms with digital transformation in information societies. Moreover, digital platforms in the healthcare industry accelerate and increase the efficiency of drug discovery and development processes. However, there is the lack of knowledge concerning relationships between EA and digital platforms, in spite of the needs of it. In this paper, we investigated and analyzed the process of drug design and development within the healthcare industry, together with related work in using an enterprise architecture framework for the digital era named the Adaptive Integrated Digital Architecture Framework (AIDAF), specifically supporting the design of digital platforms there. Based on this analysis, we evaluate a method and propose a new reference architecture for promoting digital platforms in the healthcare industry, with future specific aspects of them making effective use of Artificial Intelligence (AI). The practical and theoretical contributions include: (1) Streamlined processes through digital platforms in organizations. (2) Informal knowledge supply and sharing among organizational members through digital platforms. (3) Efficiency and effectiveness in planning production and business for drug development. The findings indicate that EA with digital platforms using the AIDAF contribute to digital transformation with effectiveness for new drugs in the healthcare industry.
Enterprise architecture (EA) is useful for promoting digital transformation in global companies and information societies. In this paper, the authors investigated and analyzed the process for digital transformation in global companies, together with related work in using and applying an enterprise architecture framework for the digital era named the adaptive integrated digital architecture framework (AIDAF). Moreover, they position the AIDAF framework for processing digital transformation in global companies. Based on this analysis, the authors propose and describe a new enterprise architecture process for promoting digital transformation in global companies. Furthermore, the authors propose an adaptive EA cycle-based architecture board framework on digital platforms, while verifying them with case studies in global companies. Finally, the authors clarify the challenges and critical success factors of the process and framework for digital transformation with architecture board reviews in the adaptive EA cycle to assist EA practitioners with its implementation.
Enterprises and information societies confront crucial challenges currently, while Industry 4.0 becomes important in the global manufacturing industry and Society 5.0 should contribute to a supersmart society, especially for healthcare. Physical activity monitoring digital platforms are architected to improve the healthcare status of patients with diabetes and other lifestyle-related diseases. Furthermore, digital platforms are expected to generate profits for health technology companies and help control costs in the healthcare ecosystem. However, current digital enterprise architecture approaches are not well-established, and the potentials have not yet been realized. Design thinking approach and agile software development methodologies can overcome these limitations, beginning with proof of concept and pilot projects and then scaling to the production environment. In this paper, we describe how that the adaptive integrated digital architecture framework (AIDAF) for Design Thinking approach is proposed and verified in a case of a university hospital in the Americas. In addition, challenges and future activities for this area are discussed that cover the directions for Society 5.0.
To bring a pattern-based perspective to the SOA vs. microservices discussion, we qualitatively analyzed a total of 118 SOA patterns from 2 popular catalogs for their (partial) applicability to microservices. Patterns had to hold up to 5 derived microservices principles to be applicable. 74 patterns (63%) were categorized as fully applicable, 30 (25%) as partially applicable, and 14 (12%) as not applicable. Most frequently violated microservices characteristics werde Decentralization and Single System. The findings suggest that microservices and SOA share a large set of architectural principles and solutions in the general space of service-based systems while only having a small set of differences in specific areas.
Enterprises and societies currently face essential challenges, and digital transformation can contribute to their resolution. Enterprise architecture (EA) is useful for promoting digital transformation in global companies and information societies covering ecosystem partners. The advancement of new business models can be promoted with digital platforms and architectures for Industry 4.0 and Society 5.0. Therefore, products from the sector of healthcare, manufacturing and energy, etc. can increase in value. The adaptive integrated digital architecture framework (AIDAF) for Industry 4.0 and the design thinking approach is expected to promote and implement the digital platforms and digital products for healthcare, manufacturing and energy communities more efficiently. In this paper, we propose various cases of digital transformation where digital platforms and products are designed and evaluated for digital IT, digital manufacturing and digital healthcare with Industry 4.0 and Society 5.0. The vision of AIDAF applications to perform digital transformation in global companies is explained and referenced, extended toward the digitalized ecosystems such as Society 5.0 and Industry 4.0.
Enterprises and societies currently face crucial challenges, while Industry 4.0 becomes important in the global manufacturing industry all the more. Industry 4.0 offers a range of opportunities for companies to increase the flexibility and efficiency of production processes. The development of new business models can be promoted with digital platforms and architectures for Industry 4.0. Therefore, products from the healthcare sector can increase in value. The adaptive integrated digital architecture framework (AIDAF) for Industry 4.0 is expected to promote and implement the digital platforms and robotics for healthcare and medical communities efficiently. In this paper, we propose that various digital platforms and robotics are designed and evaluated for digital healthcare as for manufacturing industry with Industry 4.0. We argue that the design of an open healthcare platform “Open Healthcare Platform 2030 - OHP2030” for medical product design and robotics can be developed with AIDAF. The vision of AIDAF applications to enable Industry 4.0 in the OHP2030 research initiative is explained and referenced, extended in the context of Society 5.0.
The evolution of Services Oriented Architectures (SOA) presents many challenges due to their complex, dynamic and heterogeneous nature. We describe how SOA design principles can facilitate SOA evolvability and examine several approaches to support SOA evolution. SOA evolution approaches can be classified based on the level of granularity they address, namely, service code level, service interaction level and model level. We also discuss emerging trends, such as microservices and knowledge-based support, which can enhance the evolution of future SOA systems.
Enterprises are currently transforming their strategy, processes, and their information systems to extend their degree of digitalization. The potential of the Internet and related digital technologies, like Internet of Things, services computing, cloud computing, artificial intelligence, big data with analytics, mobile systems, collaboration networks, and cyber physical systems both drives and enables new business designs. Digitalization deeply disrupts existing businesses, technologies and economies and fosters the architecture of digital environments with many rather small and distributed structures. This has a strong impact for new value producing opportunities and architecting digital services and products guiding their design through exploiting a Service-Dominant Logic. The main result of the book chapter extends methods for integral digital strategies with value-oriented models for digital products and services which are defined in the framework of a multi-perspective digital enterprise architecture reference model.
