Why Establish Reference Architecture

A well defined Reference Architecture forms a strong foundation for adoption of the chosen Architecture paradigm – Micro-Services/API, SOA, BPM, Cloud

Integration problems can be solved in several different ways. It is important to solve them using established patterns, providing for better re-use, scalability, performance and supportability

Digital Reference Architecture is to Integration as Design is to Application Development

26

Important artifacts of Reference Architecture

Digital Reference Architecture guideline (for Analysts, PMs and EA) A high level reference document that provides an overview of the ESB domain in aspects of Design, Build

and Run Deployment Architecture guideline (for Integration Architects, Infrastructure

Architects) A detailed document that establishes the Physical and Logical Architecture of various ESB software

components like processing, messaging, orchestration, gateways, mediation, governance etc. with High-Availability, Scalability, Federation etc.

ESB Software Architecture guideline (for Development and Implementation team) A detailed document that establishes the Integration Patterns, Design Patterns for each paradigm like

API, SOA, BPM, B2B, CAF, Micro-Services etc. This document establishes guardrails for all software design of ESB and other participating applications

27

Important artifacts of Reference Architecture

Strategy and Implementation Roadmap A strategic path to reach higher maturity

Requirements and Capabilities guideline A requirements matrix that establishes the role, responsibility and capabilities of various

components of Digital and Integration platforms to formulate a solution architecture API and SOA Governance Guide

Micro Services Architecture A detailed guideline that formulates and establishes API and SOA Governance policies,

Asset Life Cycles, Approval points and groups, Policy Enforcement policies, Registry/Repository, API classification and life-cycle management

Formulates Design-time, Change-time and Runtime governance policies, monitoring and enforcement
