The data building blocks of the enterprise architect

When setting up an Enterprise Architecture a number of decisions have to be made with respect to data storage and data transmissions. In this paper we bring a structured overview of those data aspects on which decisions need to be made, and we show that different nodes in a data exchange are dependent upon decisions made by another node with respect to these data aspects. Communicating the decisions on data aspects can happen via architectural descriptions.
