Excellent! Only a person like Raj can pull such a complex topic off in under seven minutes. The video made me feel like I had brushed through the entire togaf study guide in one shot
Thanks for explaining so nicely. I am doing my Executive mgmt course from IIM, even they are giving this as a reference link to understand EA. Have my exam tomorrow on MIS and this really helps. Appreciate your support.
Haha - that's interesting. I've sat through boring classes always wondering how I would have made it more interesting. Now this is my attempt to right some of that :-). Really appreciate your comment.
@@RajRamesh Thank you. I watched your series before starting with TOGAF. This made it very easy for me to understand the EA as a discipline. Thank you.
It's interesting to see many universities use this video to teach the concept of Enterprise Architecture. This, by far, has been the best collaboration in my career that has advanced the knowledge in our community.
I was preparing for CISSP and was struggling to understand what is meant by EA and atlast you taught me that the combination of those four domain is EA. Quite helpful
Thanks for the great review. I am working with several clients on EAM projects and this is often a good entry for additional stakeholders to understand the topic.
Very well explained and I would say this is the best source of information about TOGAF, packed in just 6 minutes box. Thanks for sharing the knowledge, much appreciated!
there are 1000's of videos and its when we watch this kind of video we get knowledge and satisfaction... thank you Raj for such a short crisp and clear video..
Nailed it! After going through a range of TOGAF materials and other references I was not yet able to clearly define "why EA?" and "what it does?" but yours is the best! Pls keep doing what you doing, I am that top fan who is (im)patiently waiting for your next video to come up every week.
Thank you so much for sharing. It's easy and simple to break it down 4 domains as you did that holistically summarize EA need and its significance for an organization.
You nailed it Raj! Its simply amazing that how nicely you explained a highly complex topic with ease and that too in such a simple term, truly kudos to you.
Again simply superb explanation in such a short and crisp form. While seeing this video I was imagining where all I fall and where all EA handling this complex architecture.
Very short and simple explanation of Enterprise Architecture and its components. Important part which I liked about the purpose behind EA to connect different parts of business and make them work together towards a desired outcome. Thank you very much the video on this topic.
One of the most informative and well explained video on Enterprise Architecture! It can't be more simpler! Thank you Raj Ramesh for the video and effort.
Nicely articulated, one of the major issue which we observe is the actual implementation of any plan at ground level where aligning the human resource and mindset becomes a challenge and a key success factor in any architectural success
Yes, for successful implementation we need to consider many factors. Some of these are deterministic - like how system behave, and some are non-deterministic like how people react to change. Managing all that is the skill of a great implementation manager/team.
Nice one Raj 🙌🏼 Good to see the use of Technology Architecture to support the Business Architecture. In my experience, it’s Technology Architecture that drives Business and Business Architecture requirements, due to misguided focus on Technology. If the Business doesn’t have a need or use for the technology, no matter how ‘cutting edge’ it appears or is sold, it will as you say ‘easily becomes obsolete’. Unfortunately companies are realising that the hard one, hence the high failure rate in digital transformations 😏
This is an excellent insight into the enterprise architecture framework, bringing together the related elements of strategy, business, and technology in a very brief but detailed manner. Brilliant!
Thank you for this brilliant presentation where all is simple but nothing is missing. You understand everything and you have the art to explain it. For me, by far one of the best presentation of enterprise architecture. Thanks you again.
Complex!!! And complexity is driving to further levels of specialization, but IT automation is accelerating the automation of activities driving employees into 'new work' paradigms faster than adaptation can take place within a mind.
thanks so much for your excellent video. It helps me easily understand a hard topic like enterprise architecture. With your clear explanation, now I know this topic more clear. Please keep your clever works
Awesome & straight to the point! If you don't mind me asking, what do you use for your voiceovers ? I mean is this your natural voice? or do you run your voiceovers through some software that makes them more crisp and professional. btw, I subscribed to your channel!
Thank you for the video and for your thoughts. A question I ask myself is: in a cloud-driven company: do you still have enterprise architects or will you only have Cloud architects? How do these roles co-exist and collaborate in the bigger picture?
The cloud does not keep engineers from making a hairball architecture that is not futureproof or fails when there is some sort of regulatory or other change for the business. Cloud is a tool, not a destination. EA is a living roadmap to a destination that can use multiple tools to accomplish.
Hi, I recently struggled to explain to the business side why business and IT alignment is actually something to strive for. It would be great to hear your thoughts about why it is actually beneficial to align the IT with the business or if you believe otherwise why it actually is not necessary at all.
Yes Cj M - the alignment is critical because the IT applications have to support the business processes. Simple example: If I want to do taxes (in the US), then its better for me to use TurboTax, even though I could technically use MS Excel. If I use Excel, I'll be wasting a lot of time and energy. For larger businesses, this simple problem gets magnified much more. If there is no alignment, you can imagine the implications.
Dr Raj, your 7 minute video has explained EA better than hours of classes. Thank you!
Glad to hear it was helpful!
This video succinctly explains Enterprise Architecture! Kudos to Dr. Raj Ramesh and Christine Stephenson!
Thank you. I'm in HR desperately trying to understand my business more and this is just increasing my admiration of the colleagues I work with.
great
Working in partership with the other departments to understand your business strategic plan is a great way to use your enterprise architecture.
Excellent! Only a person like Raj can pull such a complex topic off in under seven minutes. The video made me feel like I had brushed through the entire togaf study guide in one shot
Thanks cinarain for your kind words
I agree!
I need to understand EA to assist my entire country in its governments digital transformation. Thanks for creating this.
Thanks for explaining so nicely. I am doing my Executive mgmt course from IIM, even they are giving this as a reference link to understand EA. Have my exam tomorrow on MIS and this really helps. Appreciate your support.
Glad it was helpful, and thanks for letting me know. I had no idea how much this video is referenced. Best wishes on your exam.
@manishachoudhary7221 what was your specialzation?
All the best in completing your course
This is one of the clearest explanations I have seen. Bravo.
Thank you
Thank you for this, I finally get it. I listened to my teacher yap for 2.5 hours on this topic and I understood nothing at the end of it.
Haha - that's interesting. I've sat through boring classes always wondering how I would have made it more interesting. Now this is my attempt to right some of that :-). Really appreciate your comment.
Im a newbie. And i love this. How can i start learning? Any start up ea consultants?
This is the best and simplest video that explains satisactorily what EA is, thank you for this.
Glad it was helpful!
Best explanation of EA. I have come across - master at work articulating complexity with simple representation
This is probably the best sub 10 minutes explanation of EA that I have come across. Thanks
Wow, thanks!
@@RajRamesh can I use this periodically in my training course?
This is Gold. Open Group must make this mandatory viewing for Enterprise Architects. Thank you Dr Raj.
Thanks, appreciate that :-)

Excellently put.. just wow.. they say if you cannot explain it in simple language ..then you don't understand it.. I feel enlightened Raj.
thank you!
These videos are perfect. Please keep up the good work.

Well articulated explanation of Enterprise Architecture
Great explanation of EA and BA, Raj! I’m going to share it with a few folks.
Sure thanks!
I can't wait for this video to get to 1 Million views. To think I had a senior manager say it was not the right thing to do.
Great video which shows, in a non-technical way, what EA is and the important elements of it.
Simply superb - how missed this content is what I'm upset about.
thank you!
The Best! Spoken very clearly which is difficult to find on RUclips.
Wow, thank you!
absolutely outstanding work. No marketing fluff. just plain to the point. You earned a sub!
Much appreciated!

Great! Best of luck!
Excellent Mr. Raj Ramesh, everything in one picture
Complex!!! And complexity is driving to further levels of specialization, but IT automation is accelerating the automation of activities driving employees into 'new work' paradigms faster than adaptation can take place within a mind.
Totally agree. Really clear and concise definition of EA in his video.
Very good explanation ! Tks for that.
You are welcome!
Very well explained. Thank you for packaging and sharing this knowledge. Looking forward to applying this information

Thanks for the Videos for simple and easy explanation....
You are welcome
Loved the explanation. Thanks
Glad it was helpful!
Definitely liked the video, explained very simply. Thanks
great explaination ! i would like to learn more about EA and any training conducts from your end. thanks
Currently I don't offer any courses on this topic. If I do, it'll probably be all done in a couple of hours!
Thank you so much for the video, its a great one
what an explanation. Commendable work.
Many thanks!

Thanks for subscribing. Appreciate it. Yes, this is my natural voice, but I do try to record with a good microphone in a quiet space.
Great video, extremely helpful. Looking for more information/resources on the technology architecture portion.
Thank you for the video and for your thoughts. A question I ask myself is: in a cloud-driven company: do you still have enterprise architects or will you only have Cloud architects? How do these roles co-exist and collaborate in the bigger picture?
Others can chime in as well. I think these roles will coexist in the near future, but has high potential of merging.
The cloud does not keep engineers from making a hairball architecture that is not futureproof or fails when there is some sort of regulatory or other change for the business. Cloud is a tool, not a destination. EA is a living roadmap to a destination that can use multiple tools to accomplish.
Really Awesome!
I would like to learn more about this in detail.
Please do suggest.
That depends on your background. If you are not Techical, then I'd suggest you focus on business architecture first.
Great video, explaining Ea in a very engaging
way
Very candid explanation. Great Sir.
Keep watching
God bless you Ramesh. Thank you for contributing to EA. Mashallah.
