Dragon1 is an enterprise architecture software tool made by the Dragon1 Company (https://www.dragon1.com)
Anyone interested in enterprise architecture can learn what actually enterprise architecture is.
We will place 10 concepts and principles as patterns (in JSON, XML and Excel Sheet) here that can be used for discovery and modeling.
These concepts and principles can be selected and used to create yoir own architecture.
The first concept and principle will be ReUse.
Suppose your organization provides 20 different services to clients, how much reuse is their in the build blocks of these services?
And what opportunities for reuse are there?
In the JSON, XML and Excel-Sheets folder you find files you can upload in the Dragon1 Viewer: https://www.dragon1.com/viewer.
