What's Your Baseline? Enterprise Architecture & Business Process Management Demystified

Ep. 7 - Import of Existing Content

Listen Later

Welcome to a new episode of your favorite podcast. The topic of today is to capture and import the vast amounts of existing content in your organization, and how to integrate this into your repository.

The import is one of the four major steps of an architecture tool implementation that we discussed in Episode 3.

  • Why bringing in existing content?
  • Concerns: age of content, correctness, type of storage (project vs. Enterprise Baseline), integration into dev method/SDLC, document naming/versioning
  • Size of import: number of models and complexity drive effort
  • Content format: how to map the information to models, objects, attributes
  • Create catalog of to-be-imported content (> Notion)
  • Five phases of import: preparation, initial import, create new model, normalization, quality assurance
  • Preparation: catalog, database setup, filter/permission considerations, tool mapping (Visio), tracking and reporting
  • Initial import: detailed look at what to import; automatically or manually import, use catalog for tracking, issues when importing
  • Create new models: BPMN Collaboration example, merge between different databases
  • Normalization: where does content go into structure (subprocesses, catalog models, etc.), object consolidation, adapting models to "correct" layout/standards (such as object naming)
  • QA: modeler QA vs. central QA, semantic checks, macros, automated workflows; release and publish, communication
