Users will learn about modern architecture modeling thereby understanding how to simplify complex architectural models.

Anyone involved in managing IT systems and interested in Enterprise Architecture, or the Enterprise Program Management Office will find this book useful. This book is out now and is available with Packt. For more information, please visit http://www.packtpub.com/troux-enterprise-architecture-sol...
