6. An architecture framework is a foundational structure, or
set of structures, which can be used for developing a broad
range of different architectures. It should describe a
method for designing a target state of the enterprise in
terms of a set of building blocks, and for showing how the
building blocks fit together. It should contain a set of tools
and provide a common vocabulary. It should also include a
list of recommended standards and compliant products
that can be used to implement the building blocks.

“A well-defined practice for conducting enterprise
analysis, design, planning, and implementation,
using a holistic approach at all times, for the
successful development and execution of strategy.
Enterprise architecture applies architecture
principles and practices to guide organizations
through the business, information, process, and
technology changes necessary to execute their
strategy”

Information and Technology definition
“EA is explicitly describing an organization through a set of independent, non-redundant artifacts,
defining how these artifacts interrelate with each other, and developing a set of prioritized, aligned
initiatives and roadmaps to understand the organization, communicate this understanding to
stakeholders and move the organization forward to its desired state”
Business definition
“EA illuminates how an organization and all of its members can achieve its objectives, through the
creation of a series of engineered models and project initiatives, that can be easily understood by
all the people associated with the organization”
Reference: John Zachman EA Presentation
