The Business Operating Environment
Reach of the Business Mission Area
"The Secretary of Defense is responsible for a halftrillion dollar enterprise that is roughly an order of
magnitude larger than any commercial corporation that
has ever existed. DoD estimates that business support
activities—the Defense Agencies and the business
support operations within the Military Departments—
comprise 53% of the DoD enterprise.”

XX, Inc - Business Transformation Program
2004 to 2008
Reduce number of applications from 5,000 to 1,500.
Reduce the number of servers from 19,000 to 10,000.
Increase server utilization from 20% to 80%.
Consolidate 100 world sites for IT development to 29.
Consolidate 85 data centers to six.
Build a data warehouse to be SOA accessible.
Reduce I.T. workforce from 19,000 to 8,000, and
–  Reduce contractors from 11,000 to < 5,000.
!  80% of staff on new projects, 20% on maintenance.
!  IT Budget 2004 = $3.04B – IT Budget 2008 = $2.11B

Magic Sauce: BPR + SOA
(Services Oriented Architecture)
!  Example experiences of global organization with: 90
million transactions daily - 7000 business rules
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 
1100 C programs consolidated into 40 Services
3 months from prototype to practice
More than 90% development time savings
12 week C development estimate reduced to 1 week
Had 10 Servers, now 5 with 2X band width
Had 73.5 FTEs, now 13 fewer FTEs and doing more
There is a DoD Economic Imperative

Transformation through SOA
“The DoD and IC share a vision for a services-based environment that
leverages technologies to provide access to information and business
processes, and interoperable infrastructure and standards to enable discovery,
availability and trust.”

SOA Objectives

What is the Objective of SOA in DoD?
! The capacity to:
7/13/2010
–  Discover Applications Anywhere;
–  Display the Capabilities of All Applications;
–  Discover Network Data from a Data Registry;
–  Mediate the Extraction of Data from Data Bases;
–  Execute Requests from Multiple Servers;
–  Provide Credentials Validation to Everyone;
–  Deliver Results at “Google Speed” of <0.25
second;
–  Operate Network with Downtime of < 5 minutes/
year.

Enterprise Architecture requires
Humans to Communicate…
…So Systems and Services
can talk to each other

Why is this hard?

Enterprise Architecture
! Many Frameworks
! Many Views
! Many Techniques
–  UML, IDEF, BPMN, RAD, EPC, PowerPoint and
many, many others...

Game-Changing Innovations
!  If we can precisely state requirements and precisely describe
data/services, we will be able to find them and know how to use
them to facilitate
–  Integration and Interoperability
!  We must describe both the data/services and requirements with
enough precision to accomplish the goal
!  We use
–  BPMN/Primitives for business mission descriptions
–  OWL and RDF for domains, services, data, capabilities and
requirements descriptions
