In addition to business process analysis, the
other important component of enterprise architecture is the workload
analysis. |
|
Logical architecture is design based on the
business process analysis. |
|
Physical architecture is designed based on
workload analysis. |
|
For example : A sophisticate application system
can be developed on a simple testing platform. But it must be deployed on
an enterprise platform to support the workload. The physical architecture
is not a function of business processes. |
|
Physical architecture varies significantly to
support the workload. |
|

|
|
|
The work
load is defined as mission workload instead of system workload. |
|
Time is the major factor of workload. |
|
Workload does not only consider the workload
distribution but also the business performance requirements. |
|
Engineering design based on peak load and peak
time. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In technology oriented IT community, workload
refers to system workload rather than mission workload. |
|
System workload is considered as the operational
characteristics for performance tuning. |
|
EA consider workload as the mission workload
rather system workload. |
|
Mission workload is business oriented with
regarding to the number of customers and where they are distribute and what
time do they need the system. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Enterprise mission consist not only the mission
function but also the mission workload. |
|
Strategic planning support the mission. |
|
People and business process follow the strategic
planning leverage on social science, industrial technologies and
information technologies. |

In the industrial age, workload and performance
analysis has been the engineering fundamental such mechanical design, civil
engineering. |
|
Business processes has become the major concern
in the information to automate business processes. |
|
Business processes are an additional engineering
driver. |
|
Workload is still the engineering fundamental
and it is critical for engineering of sharing. |
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
EA has been business process centric and
overlooked workload analysis. |
|
Systems are design only with function
consideration. |
|
Workload
is only considered as operational characteristic rather the engineering
design driver. |
|
Major
system failure due to lack of workload consideration. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Platform independent technology does not
eliminate the consideration of workload. |
|
One size does not fit all even in the world of
platform independent software engineering environment. |
|
The complexity of software architecture varies
significantly under different workload and performance requirements. |
|
For example : a small engine and large engine.
The function is the same but the design of large engine is much more
complicate. |
|
The complexity of software architecture is a
function of workload and performance requirement. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
LEA bring attention to the engineering
fundamental of workload analysis. |
|
Workload analysis is the driver for the
engineering of sharing. |
|
The business function drive the logical
architecture the workload and performance requirement drive the physical
architecture. |
|
Workload analysis and performance requirement is
essential in enterprise architecture. |

|
|
|
|
|
In stove pipe culture, workload is estimated by
each system development and contribute to significant idle resources. |
|
In enterprise architecture, mission workload
must be analyzed holistically to eliminate redundant workload calculation. |
|
The workload is estimated base on the customer
demographics, workload distribution and performance requirements. |
|
Engineering of sharing such as IT resources
consolidation must be designed based holistic mission workload and
performance requirement. |
