The diagram above depicts the information relationships between the
computing applications used by the Finance & Administration services
as well as the applications used by Commercial Aviation Systems and
the single point of information exchange between the two lines of
business. The purpose of this diagram is to show where the work of
the services depicted has been partially allocated to computing
applications as well as showing where that allocated work interacts
within a subset of the enterprise. Enterprise architects
concerned with application integration use this diagram to ensure
application releases do not “forget” their negotiated information
relationships with other applications.
While some applications have the words the evoke greater or lesser
components in their name (due to developers treating “application”,
“library”, “module” and “system” as synonyms), the diagram above
only depicts the relationship of applications to other applications,
not systems to systems or applications to systems. |

The purpose of the application interface matrix above is to
illustrate the past, present and near future, possible information
interactions between the computing applications used by Finance &
Administration and Commercial Aviation Systems. This matrix allows
for quick evaluation in a compact space to see what information
interactions in support of the services of these two lines of
business are possible and necessary when making enterprise
architecture direction decisions. Enterprise architects refer to this table when
evaluating proposed application designs involving changed
interfaces. |
