So what artefacts make up an Application Architecture? It can be a huge variety of things, depending on the views that are required. A business view might for example be required that shows what major business applications exist in the organisation. A Solution Designer view might be required for an application that shows how the application works. An Enterprise Architect view might be required that shows how well an application conforms to the architecture standards adopted. A view might also be required that shows the business objectives, data (information) elements and the infrastructure that the application is deployed on - all within the same view.

The next few blogs will look at what is contained within an Application Architecture. The Applications layer features somewhere between the Business and the Infrastructure layers (refer frameworks previously discussed). An application typically includes the data it uses or maintains, and this data is usually within the application’s control. An application is really an IT Solution, so it can be an off-the-shelf package that is implemented or it can be an in-house developed system.
