Contribution title enterprise architecture approach to resilience of government data centre infrastructure

Abstract

We can observe a paradigm shift with respect to government data centres. Due to the complexity of such a data centre system, new types of quality attributes should be used, such as resilience, trustworthiness, and sustainability. This paper offers a general approach to the transformation of government data centres for different enterprise levels from a resilience point of view. It presents an enterprise architecture approach to the development of a federal data centre, considering resilience as a quality attribute. The approach is supported by using ArchiMate: an enterprise architecture modelling language. Resilience is considered from various perspectives: business, application, infrastructure and physical. An agnostic solution is proposed which is based on architecture and design patterns.
