Principle-based approach in Enterprise Architecture practice – a DYA whitepaper by Sogeti
Principle-based approach in Enterprise Architecture practice – a DYA whitepaper by Sogeti
BY : Hans Nouwens
This paper gives more insight in the differences between principle-based and rule-based architecture approaches as well as the implications of choosing one over the other. The objective of this paper is to provide a sound basis for organisations to develop a well-informed perspective on how to effectively apply architecture principles within their own specific context.
This paper was first released in 2016. Because the content is in line with our vision on Sensemaking Architecture, it has been restyled and added to the series of white papers on Sensemaking Architecture.
Originally written by Marlies van Steenbergen and Ton Eusterbrock.
