SysFEAT - Systemic Framework for Enterprise Architecture & Transformation

CLASS OF CLASS OF CONNECTION - Technology Interface

Description

Abstract Concept
A Technology Interface is a Resource Service Interface that describes a typical course of interactions intended to produce Technology Outcome Events, through the involvement of Technology Systems.

Functional Domain: EA Pattern - Technology Operating Pattern

The EA Pattern - Technology Operating Pattern is used to describe the common features of Technology Operating Assets.

Block Member	[*..0]	Building Block	Aggregate Block	A Block Member is an Aggregate Member that aggregates its releated Building Block by reference (see Referencing Relationship).Block Members are used to build network structures of Building Blocks while Hierarchical Members are used to build hierarchical structures of Building Blocks.

Dependency Relationship	[1..1]	Entity	Entity	A Dependency Relationship is a Relationship that specifies the existential dependency of the sourceRelationship on its target Relationship.The cardinality to the target Entity is [1..1].
