Enterprise Architecture Repositories
What is enterprise architecture?
In today’s business landscape, the seamless integration of IT and business has become a cornerstone of success. Modern enterprises are heavily reliant on information systems that enable and enhance their (core) business capabilities.
However, achieving business and IT alignment can be a difficult task. This is where the practice of enterprise architecture (sometimes called enterprise architecture management) comes into play, building a bridge between business and IT to steer the natural evolution of the enterprise.

The Essential Project - The Open-source Alternative to EAM Tools like LeanIX and ADOIT.
Every company looking to establish an Enterprise Architecture (EA) team quickly reaches the point where an enterprise repository becomes indispensable. Initially, it’s common to manage data about the application landscape and its relevance to the business in Excel spreadsheets. However, many companies eventually realize the need for a software solution to model their enterprise architecture.
The same tools frequently come up in discussions, all of which are listed in the Gartner Quadrant for EAM tools. In our projects, we have already worked extensively with the market leaders.

IoT in Fluid Storage and Management
This article gives you an overview of an approach to collect measurements in a distributed IoT setup. The challenges of fluid storage and management can be generalized to other IoT use-cases.
In general, storage reservoirs and tanks for water are placed where water is collected not where it is logistically sound to have the water. Remoteness is a constant challenge. In order to monitor such locations we have developed an IoT network to monitor water levels. A network, bolstered by 5G or potentially other technologies such as StarLink, bridges the distance, enveloping our tanks in a secure web of connectivity through VPNs. In the future, the measurement nodes will be run fully off-grid via a solar power supply. This foundational layer of technology ensures a seamless and uninterrupted flow of real-time data, even from the most isolated locations. We have engaged in the journey to develop a fully independent network of sensor nodes.
