Design-centric patterns are organized in a pattern hierarchy that includes architectural styles, architectural patterns, and design patterns.
Practice this chapterDesign-centric patterns are organized in a pattern hierarchy that includes architectural styles, architectural patterns, and design patterns. Implementation-centric pattern hierarchy includes implementation styles, implementation patterns, and idioms
An enterprise architecture (EA) is a conceptual blueprint that defines the structure and operation of organizations A pattern documents a recurring problem/solution pairing within a given context
idiom — phrase or expression whose meaning cannot be inferred from the literal definitions of its individual words, but instead is understood through common usage within a language. architectural style — abstract patterns located at the top of the pattern hierarchy; they capture sets of characteristics and features that make a structure identifiable. enterprise architecture (EA) — conceptual blueprint that defines the structure and operation of organizations. pattern hierarchy — architectural styles, architectural patterns, and design patterns.
Worked example
What does “idiom” mean in Enterprise and Solution Architectures Management?
- 1Use the wording this chapter gives for idiom.
- 2The book says: phrase or expression whose meaning cannot be inferred from the literal definitions of its individual words, but instead is understood through common usage within a language.
- 3Do not use the meaning of architectural style. That term means abstract patterns located at the top of the pattern hierarchy; they capture sets of characteristics and features that make a structure identifiable.
Result: phrase or expression whose meaning cannot be inferred from the literal definitions of its individual words, but instead is understood through common usage within a language
Why. That is the meaning this chapter gives for idiom.
Do not swap idiom and architectural style. idiom means phrase or expression whose meaning cannot be inferred from the literal definitions of its individual words, but instead is understood through common usage within a language. architectural style means abstract patterns located at the top of the pattern hierarchy; they capture sets of characteristics and features that make a structure identifiable.
