Presentation

Componentized EA Devevlopment

This article deals with a method of ‘componentizing’ the EA and tries to develop each component. It is something like developing each piece of a zig-saw puzzle. It will take its own time to complete the entire picture of developing the EA but essential parts will come up and be available to take key decisions.
It is something like developing map of only that portion of the city where you need direction to reach from point A to point B rather than having a complete picture of the city whether we need all those information or not.

Audience:-
EA practitioners and potential clients who are about to implement EA

Key takeaways:-
1. EA development made easy
2. ROI is justifyable in this method
3. Time to develop EA is reduced
