Depending on the project and domain classification of the organization, a project or solution architect will be responsible for the architectural development of one or more projects that achieve a conversion from the baseline to the target architecture.

Depending on the domain classification of the organization, a domain architect will be ultimately responsible for the architectural development of the relevant domain.

Role ultimately responsible for the overall architecture for the entire organization. So has both a global and an abstract scope on the architecture and the use of the architecture repository.

Responsible for the use and deployment of the models in the architecture repository. Has a coordinating and controlling task for all modeling roles involved in the architecture. Monitors the consistency of the architecture repository and provides modellers with information and training on the use of the architecture repository.

In addition to drawing up architectures, there are also roles that review and approve the architecture artifacts. For example, by testing for quality, feasibility, but also on the application of the modeling conventions and the organizational metamodel.

Producer of artifacts, data and information that serve as input for preparing architect artifacts (in the architecture repository).

With project architectures in particular, the inventory of the baseline, impact of the project, the requirements of the various stakeholders and the solution directions to be selected is an important work process.

domain architecture describes an aspect or part of the enterprise or reference architecture. Aspects can be layers or aspects, but also domains within the architectural field or the organizational structure.

A specialization of an inventory within the architecture is drawing up the requirements for the target architecture for the various stakeholders within and outside the organization within which the architecture is drawn up.

The baseline is an architecture that describes the current architecture of the system. It is often drawn up together with the target architecture, which is the desired architecture. In this way it is possible to gain insight into the differences between the desired and current architecture.

In addition to the use of a modeling language, additional requirements and definitions are drawn up around the Architecture models and products. They are frameworks for architects who develop different types of architectures.

An inventory document describes the aspects that are relevant when mapping a complex architecture, for example the baseline or target architecture. It is part of the analysis and modeling to establish an architecture.

A reference architecture is an abstract architecture in which a number of generic frameworks or building blocks are described. Organization-specific (domain and solution) architectures are drawn up based on reference architectures.
