Enterprise Architecture (EA) is a discipline for holistically organizing and modeling strategic assets (e.g. business processes, IT infrastructure). The resulting EA models are then used by architects to support and steer decision-making processes toward the desired state of the enterprise. To support continuous quality improvement of EA models, the architects… Read more
Enterprise Architecture Smells (EA Smells) indicate possible weaknesses in an EA structure. Various EA metrics have been proposed as tools to detect EA smells, and the effectiveness of the detection solely lies on the applied metric thresholds, which determine whether the detected EA smell indicates a valid threat to EA… Read more
DevOps: Using Kubernetes Operators inside the Internet of Production Kubernetes is one of the emerging technologies in recent times. A lot of companies adopted Containerization and Kubernetes as a new way of operating and managing complex software systems. With Kubernetes the concept of Operators emerged, which a custom build… Read more
