Abstract
PINHEIRO, Carlos Roberto; GUERREIRO, Sérgio and VASCONCELOS, André. Enterprise architecture management in microservice governance. RISTI [online]. 2019, n.35, pp.86-100. ISSN 1646-9895. https://doi.org/10.17013/risti.35.86-100.
Microservice architecture is an architectural style to building distributed systems through a set of small standalone services. This paper investigates the relevant factors about the microservices architecture from the perspective of Enterprise Architecture Management (EAM) and proposes a reference architecture represented in ArchiMate, which supports the function of planning and keeping the architecture up to date. This reference architecture defines, (i) governance principles and context, (ii) a generic team building structure, and (iii) an architecture model containing technology standards. The proposal aims to address the role of enterprise architecture management through decentralized governance and to support microservice teams in the least intrusive and restrictive way possible. The architectural proposal is evaluated through interviews and a survey applied to professionals from different business areas.
