Modeling Tool and Repository
A key challenge
for Enterprise Architecture practitioners is what to do with all
the models they create. Most end up in various drawing tools and,
at best, get
assembled into shared files.
The Proact Toolkit
is implemented on a very flexible modeling tool and repository.
This tool contains all of the models and components represented
in the Proact
Framework. This tool and repository is the mechanism used to convey
the reusable reference models.
The Proact Toolkit
supports the entire enterprise architecture community (architects,
designers, and planners) by providing a collaborative environment
for model development and review. All models and components are
stored in an active repository and have associated attributes that
can be populated by users or imported from other tools or systems.
It also provides a powerful analysis capability through matrix generation
and browsing features.
To extend the use of these models and descriptions, the tool
provides web publishing and document generation capabilities
that can be maintained through the shared repository.
