The Inventory Analysis Cycle (Part II)

Define Enterprise Business Models

Many of the services that will eventually
be modeled and designed will be
business services responsible for accurately
encapsulating and expressing
business logic. Therefore, a key input
for this process is a comprehensive,
up-to-date set of business models and
specifications (such as business
process definitions, business entity
models, logical data models, etc.). The
amount of business documentation
required is determined by the scope of
the planned service inventory.

Define Technology Architecture

An initial technology architecture
platform is required to understand any features or constraints that could affect the definition
of service candidates. As iterations through the analysis steps are completed,
there is opportunity to refine the planned technology architecture to whatever extent
feasible in response to the evolving complexion of the service inventory blueprint.

Define Service Inventory Blueprint

During the first iteration, the blueprint needs to be established with predefined service
models and a physical service inventory boundary. Subsequently, as the service-oriented
analysis process is carried out for each business process definition, service
candidates are produced and begin populating the inventory blueprint.

Perform Service-Oriented Analysis

This process is explained in the upcoming Service-Oriented Analysis Process section.
