Abstract :
Enterprise architecture (EA) is a new approach that organizations should practice to align their business strategic objectives with information and communication technology (ICT). Enterprise Architecture encompasses a collection of different views and aspects of the enterprise which constitute a comprehensive overview when put together. Such an overview cannot be well-organized regardless of incorporating a logical structure called Enterprise Architecture Framework (EAF). EAF presents a transparent and comprehensive map of an organization that shows how all organization elements (business and IT) work together to achieve defined business objectives. Several distinctive EAF have been proposed, but many organizations are struggling with using these frameworks. This article try to eliminate the challenges of common and famous EAF by using Service Oriented (SO) paradigm. This service oriented EAF (SOEAF) named KASRA EAF. KASRA EAF involves a SO Roadmap that is compatible with ITIL and a Classification Schema comprises four rows and six columns.
