1. 1 WSSC/IntrusionWorld Gov 2.0: Business Transformation Though Enterprise Mashups of Enterprise, Segment, and Solutions Architectures Implemented in Web 2.0 Wikis Brand Niemann Senior Enterprise Architect U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Web Services Security & SOA Conference Baltimore Convention Center, Baltimore, MD May 12-13, 2008 http://gov2.wik.is

2. 2 Abstract The Federal Enterprise Architecture has evolved from compliance-driven to value-driven with the addition of Segment and Solutions Architectures and increased coordination with the DoD Architectural Framework (DoDAF). However, the DoDAF 1.5 is evolving to 2.0 with a focus on Business Transformation with SOA. In addition, the author has suggested in a recent presentation at the DoD Architectures Conference (Blueprints of Today-Architectures of Tommorrow) that next year we could be talking about DoDAF 3.0 as a Web 2.0 and SOA Mashup!

3. 3 Abstract Business Transformation has become the new paradigm for Gov 2.0 because Enterprise Architecture is usually just planning. Web 2.0 and SOA have become the way to implement distributed, but connectable Web Services in Communities of Practice using Wikis that can be federated with semantic interoperability for data sharing and integration.

4. 4 Abstract This presentation will feature a series of Business Transformation services created for the press, CIO's, and everyone else. –Please see our Semantic Community.net: Community Infrastructure Sandbox:Semantic Community.net Role Reversal: Before and After Web 2.0.Role Reversal: Before and After Web 2.0 –And go to next slide for the seven examples.

11. 11 What is Business Transformation? Business transformation is a key executive management initiative that attempts to align People, Process and Technology initiatives of a company more closely with its business strategy and vision to support and help innovate new business strategies. Business transformation is achieved through efforts from alignment of People, Process and Technology strategies towards a strategic end-state. Business transformation can be achieved through new technology, business models and management practices. Business transformation is now considered an essential part of the competitive business cycle. Source: Wikipedia. Suggestion: Google it for more!Wikipedia

12. 12 Introduction The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development has defined four stages of e-government, each more demanding than the last. After information comes “interaction”, then “transaction” and eventually “transformation. The more transformational the change, the bigger the benefits. But it turns out that, at all stages, the biggest beneficiaries will be governments, so they may have to work at persuading users to accept the changes. http://www.economist.com/surveys/displaystory.cfm?story_id=10638121

13. 13 What Are the Architectural Levels and Attributes? Source: FEA Practice Guidance, Federal Enterprise Architecture Program Management Office, OMB, November 2007. See next slide for definitions.

14. 14 What Are the Architectural Levels and Attributes? Enterprise Architecture: A management practice for aligning resources to improve business performance and help agencies better execute their core missions. An EA describes the current and future state of the agency, and lays out a plan for transitioning from the current state to the desired future state. Segment Architecture: Detailed results-oriented architecture (baseline and target) and a transition strategy for a portion or segment of the enterprise. Solution Architecture: An architecture for an individual IT system that is part of a segment. A solution architecture is reconciled to the segment architecture above it.

15. 15 What Are the Architectural Levels and Attributes? Architectural Level ToolsWeb 2.0 Wiki EnterpriseWord, PowerPoint, Visio, etc. Yes* SegmentWord & Web Databases Yes* SolutionsWord & Spreadsheets Yes* * If application integration and application development platform.

16. 16 What are Web 2.0 Wikis? Web 2.0 Crucial to New Information Workplace, CIO Magazine, November 29, 2007, C.G. Lynch, CIO:November 29, 2007 –Forrester reports that from blogs to wikis to virtual worlds, the modern information worker wants a seamless user experience and more and more, IT will be forced to deliver. –The Seven Tenets of the Information Workplace: Contextual, Individualized, Seamless, Visual, Multimodal, Social, and Quick. And more in the tutorial coming.

17. 17 What are Enterprise Mashups? Enterprise Mashups are application hybrids combining content and functions from more than one existing source to create powerful Web applications, integrated Web experiences and expanded customer value networks. Mashups are the fastest growing enterprise ecosystem on the Web by far. Mashups are social, role-based, network-centric, complex, distributed and essential to all knowledge- based networks, models and businesses. Examples later.

Then Tutorial Will Show Some Enterprise Mashups of Them! –The Mashup possibilities are endless! Please Bear With Me Because This Is Different From the Way That Most of You Have Done Web Services Security and SOA Until Now.

Note: Deki Wiki has one of the most advanced permission systems available. Deki Wiki administrators can make wikis public or private, anonymous or not. There is user groups support. Users can permission entire hierarchies to create private or non-editable workspaces or permission single pages.

41. 41 Step 14: Revise/Reorganize To soon for this new Wiki, but for another EPA Web 2.0 Wiki Project I did the following quickly: –Moved content from Wiki to another Wiki. –Implemented a set of topics and subtopics. –Created a new user interface. –Updated the Tutorial slides and uploaded them. Note: This shows how agile and flexible the Web 2.0 Wiki environment is to respond to requests that would be more difficult (or impossible) and time consuming with Web 1.0 collaboration technology.

45. 45 Enterprise Mashups Enterprise Mashups are application hybrids combining content and functions from more than one existing source to create powerful Web applications, integrated Web experiences and expanded customer value networks. Mashups are created by combining internal sources such as enterprise data with external Web resources such as Google Maps. Mashups are created when different application program interfaces (API) are combined or 'mashed' to create an entirely new application.

Our initial objective is to see if this Web 2.0 Wiki can be useful in bringing about collaboration across the Metadata Management Functions Matrix, Teams-Tasks Matrix, and Data Architecture Documents. A longer range goal would be to see if this Web 2.0 Wiki could be used as an Enterprise Metadata Management and Application Development Tool (e.g. data and metadata mashups). Note: Web 2.0 does DRM 2.0 and Web 3.0 does DRM 2.0/3.0!

58. 58 Discovery (Centrifuge) This relational view represents a bundled graph of Maryland 2006 data showing Companies linked to Chemicals. This graph shows that two of the primary collections, PBT and TRI, have multiple companies between them. The chemicals have been bundled (grouped) by their chemical classifications.

59. 59 Web 2.0 and Security Social-networking technologies offer benefits that support a homeland security agenda, Federal Computer Week, September 3, 3007: –Web 2.0 applications are resilient and well-suited to collaboration because they need to connect the dots and respond to fast-changing situations. –DHS employees can still access their information, even if their computers are inaccessible, as they might be during a national security emergency. –While Web 2.0 might threaten command-and-control organizations and require improved mobile data security, the advantages to homeland and national security purposes far outweigh the risks.
