Book Description

Release Date: July 22 2009 | ISBN-10: 1435454227 | ISBN-13: 978-1435454224 | Edition: 1
Business Architecture is a disciplined approach to creating and maintaining business models that enhance enterprise accountabilities and improve decision-making. Business Architecture's value proposition, unlike other disciplines, is to increase organizational effectiveness by mapping and modeling the business to the organization's business vision and strategic goals. The book is an introduction to this burgeoning new field. It explains what Business Architecture is, what a good, sustainable one should include, and explains how to implement a business architecture practically within the reader's environment. Extensive examples and case studies are included to clarify points and demonstrate clearly to the reader how they too can begin to build business architecture within their organization.

By Rashika Fernando

This is a great book on Business Architecture. Chris Reynolds takes you through what Business Architecture is, what it should be and how to implement it properly. Being new to Business Architecture, this book really gave me a comprehensive introduction. This is a book that all project teams, architects and consultants should have!

2.0 out of 5 stars Keep Looking May 20 2012
By DMcD - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Just two days ago I returned this book to Amazon after having a chance to preview it for 48 hours. As a practicing Sr. Business Architect I found very little information that was valuable and quite a bit that might be construed as misleading when compared to what industry experts and research organizations like Forrester present. I had hoped to find a publication that I could share with others to help them understand the discipline better...but I'll keep looking.

There was no mention of Business Capability Models (one of the main tools of the trade!), there were only very basic graphics that weren't helpful, and way too much text and lack of meaningful diagrams and examples of real business architecture in practice.

While, I am still in the process of reading the book, I find it instructive. Appears to be a perfect read.
