What you'll learn:
- OpenGroup's ArchiMate 3.2 Language Specification in detail
- ArchiMate 3.2 Language Meta-Model
- Protege - the Ontology Editing Tool - and its practical usage of building ontology
- Enterprise Architecture modeling experience sharing
Unlock the full potential of Enterprise Architecture with this technical, step-by-step guide to the ArchiMate® 3.2 Specification. This course goes beyond simple diagramming; it provides a deep dive into building an ontology knowledge base for meta-models, ensuring you understand the "why" behind the "how."
The ArchiMate® Specification, a standard of The Open Group, is the industry-leading independent modeling language. It allows Enterprise Architects to describe, analyze, and visualize complex relationships across business domains with total clarity. Whether you are an Enterprise Architect, a Solution Architect, or an aspiring strategist, this course offers a holistic view of the enterprise. Remember: The scope of Enterprise Architecture is the Enterprise.
Key Learning Objectives
Deep-Dive Specification: Detailed explanations of the ArchiMate 3.2 meta-model.
Ontology Integration: Learn to build and manage the source ontology behind the models.
Multi-Layer Mastery: Hands-on practice across all ArchiMate layers and aspects.
Tool Proficiency: Gain practical experience with Protege (Ontology), Archi (Modeling), and FreePlane (Mind Mapping).
What’s New in ArchiMate 3.2?
This course is fully updated to reflect the transition from Version 3.1 to 3.2. We cover all critical updates, including:
Refined Definitions: Enhanced clarity on Core concepts such as Outcome, Constraint, Business Function, and Product.
Structural Realignment: Physical elements are now integrated into the Technology Layer.
Meta-model Enhancements: Updated subtypes for Device, System Software, Facility, and Equipment, including new composition/aggregation rules with Nodes.
New Relationships & Derivations: Realization rules from Material to Equipment and updated derivation rules for Grouping.
Notation Updates: New icon and box notations for Meaning, Value, Work Packages, Deliverables, and more.
Practical Resources & "Learn by Doing"
This is a laboratory-style course. You are encouraged to model in real-time alongside the demonstrations.
GitHub Integration: Access the complete source ontology and ArchiMate models at yasenstar/ArchiMate_Ontology.
Cross-Tool Workflow: Master the workflow between Protege, Archi, and FreePlane to create a robust architecture practice.
Stop watching and start building. Let’s model the future of the enterprise together.
