Architecture Transformation of the Corporate Information Providing System for a Scientific Organization

With active growth of digital economics, an increasingly important role is played by the design and management of the corporate information system architecture to meet the actual needs of both research fellows and management. To modernize the corporate information providing system of a scientific organization, its architecture transformation was held. In this paper, the transformation architecture results are discussed. The authors use the hybrid approach to architecture development and management, based on TOGAF and extended with a group of Zachman scheme models. The problems and actual needs of the organization associated with the corporate information providing system were revealed. According to these needs, the goal and objectives of the transformation project are formulated. Based on the principles of the IT-system architecture management approach used here, the current architecture of the corporate information providing system was analyzed and formalized. The architecture artifacts were formed using both the ArchiMate modelling language according to TOGAF methodology, and various UML diagrams corresponding to different Zachman framework viewpoints. Also, the target system architecture was developed, based on the actual organization needs.
