Enterprise IT architectures vary widely due to a number of factors.
Cisco notes, “Often the gaps between an architectural vision and its specific technological enablers are wide, but they can be bridged by examining the values captured in the architecture and looking at how technologies support them.” In this paper, Cisco experts analyze the relationship of network services in the Federal Enterprise Architecture (FEA) framework.
The paper gives a brief overview of FEA contents, a distillation of FEA’s underlying values and goals, and a survey of some of the relevant services provided by Cisco.
