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.
@@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.
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.
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.
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.
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!
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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 😏
There are lots of commercial and free tools for EA. The concepts are important to understand to use the tools properly. A google search for tool to capture the enterprise architecture will give you a bunch of results.
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.
Don't waste your time trying to convince anyone. The secret is to just do great architecture work and you will find people linking up to drink what you are drinking.
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.
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.
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!
Yes enterprise architecture is a general field that connects the different components of business. So in an architectural firm you will encounter many of the systems and processes that I talk about.
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.
I need to understand EA to assist my entire country in its governments digital transformation. Thanks for creating this.
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!
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 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 :-)
@@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.
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 one of the clearest explanations I have seen. Bravo.
Thank you
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
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!
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
Excellent, thanks
I'm a bit technologically-challenged and yet I could understand this. Lucid and crisp explanation. Thanks alot.
Great to hear!
@@RajRamesh Thanks a lot Mr. Raj😁
These videos are perfect. Please keep up the good work.
Glad you like them!
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.
2:22 complex. Amazingly crisp, concise, yet detailed. Very nicely explained; clarified EA in nutshell. Thanks a lot!

Excellent Explanation of Enterprise Architecture
Many thanks
Not one source I came across could explain the relationships between the architectures as you just did. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
So happy that this has helped you.
This is what I was looking, it’s a great video. Thanks for sharing this
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!

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.

Thanks for the video,
so what are the tools and outputs for keeping track of EA documents ?
There are lots of commercial and free tools for EA. The concepts are important to understand to use the tools properly. A google search for tool to capture the enterprise architecture will give you a bunch of results.
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.
Thank you for this comprehensive overview. You really simplified this complex topic very clearly. Kudos to that.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for explaining in simple language
Same comment as
Amerdeep Gurung - Excellent !!!
Thanks
Incredibly well explained!
Your understanding on EA is very deep. Finally I get it what this EA fuzz is all about.
Thanks @Vasimullah. Glad it helped
Excellent
Thank you!
Thank you, Very crisp and clear overview on Enterprise Architecture

Great video which shows, in a non-technical way, what EA is and the important elements of it.
Extremely well made video. Very nicely explained. Thank You!
Glad it was helpful!
Nice one. I'm interested in learning more. Apparently I may need to design one for my new employer and will need some helpful tip or guidelines.
I believe I sent you an email.
Wonderfully produced and informative video- thank you
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you so much for your wonderful explanation of EA
The Best! Spoken very clearly which is difficult to find on RUclips.
Wow, thank you!
I definitely see the need for this in our organisation but convincing old school execs of the need for it is a tough thing.
Haha, the "born before technology" syndrome type
Don't waste your time trying to convince anyone. The secret is to just do great architecture work and you will find people linking up to drink what you are drinking.
Thank you Raj... your work is excellent!
So nice of you
Thank you for the great video! May I have some guidelines or tips on designing an Enterprise Architecture?

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!
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.
Thank you so much Raj for sharing your knowledge, Kindly suggest the best books for Enterprise architecture and Business architecture
May I ask sir, which animation tool did you use for the video?
There are many white board animation tools out there.- I happen to use Videoscribe
Hello
What software or method was used to make this clip?
Thank

Very nice Explanation on EA..!!
Glad you think so!
Thank you! I am an Architectural Engineering student and I wonder if there is a relationship between my major and Enterprise Architecture
Yes enterprise architecture is a general field that connects the different components of business. So in an architectural firm you will encounter many of the systems and processes that I talk about.
I love this. The best EA explanation ever. Thanks a lot
Can you please make a course on designing an Enterprise Architecture?
Glad you like it!
@@christianonwe2045 I second your suggestion. I’d take that course.
Good video and a great explanation of what EA is to a business.
