We have just released Living EAM Platform version 3.0. It includes following new features and improvements:

  • Redesign Clustermap: In addition to the actual cluster data additional property can now be visualized in cluster maps. Moreover, the navigation within the cluster map has been refined and we have added various layout and visualization options to cutomize the cluster map. These include font size and colors, number of text lines to be show as well as the use of color annotation for specific indiviudals.
  • Process Diagram: Following up the BPMN editor within release 2.4 we have added a new and interactive process viusalization for processes including their inputs, outputs and supporting systems.
  • Additional Usability Improvements: 

    • Read-only mode for our matrix editor
    • Automatic redirect when using OIDC
    • Performance improvements (selection of individuals, object properties and object property assertions)
    • Refine editor for annotation assertions within an ontology

Our contact persons are available for any questions regarding the new features of our Living EAM Platform. In case you need more information, we would be happy to provide you a test account for our tool.

We have just released Living EAM Platform version 2.3. It includes following new features and improvements:

  • Wallboard Mode for Dashboards: Using the new wallboard mode you can now show a dashboard containing important KPIs or other visualisation in a presentation mode.
  • Analysis and Visualisations
    • Move Analysis and Visualisations: Stored queries or visualisations can now be moved between groups.
    • Tagging of Analysis and Visualisations: Any query or visualisation can now be labled with an indivdual tag. Within the overview you can now switch between group-based and tag-based view.
  • BPMN Editor: An integrated BPMN editor now allows for a graphical editing of business processes.
  • Analysis supports Calculations and Math Functions: Out SPARQL interface now includes feature to perform mathematical operations.
  • OpenID Connect: We have refined the support for OpenID Connect and single-sign-on scenarions especially using ADFS to improve the integration in SSO scenarios.

We have just released Living EAM Platform version 2.3. It includes following new features and improvements:

  • Dashboard
    • Configure and share dashboards: As an user you can now create and edit new dashboards and share them with other users. You can switch between different dashboards and set a selected dashboard as default.
    • Analysis gadget: Using the new gadget “analysis” saved queries are available from your dashboard view. By clicking on a selected query, you can directly navigate to the results view.
  • Formating query results: The format of query results can now be configured.  Quotes in query results can now be automatically removed via an user setting. Column headers can be configured for each query. Also, selected columns can be configured to be displayed as links.
  • Architecture editing:
    • Filter within selection dialogs: When editing dependencies you can now utilize a filter to find the desired architecture element.
    • Mark required fields: When defining generic overviews of specific architecture elements, you can now defined specific fields as required. Users will then get a visual notification as long as these fields are not defined.
  • Ontology editing: If you delete ontology elements you will now get a list of dangling references that block the delete operation. After you have deleted all elements of an ontology, you can now delete the empty ontology.
  • OWL export: All contents from the Living EAM Platform can now be exported using the OWL format. Thus you are now able to reuse the information in different other use cases using a standardized data format.
  • Anonymise data: If required, all personal data that are older than a defined age, can now be anonymised. This particularly includes information, which user has edited a specific architecture element.

Version 2.2 of Living EAM Platform has just been released. It includes the following new features and improvements:

  • Cluster map extensions:
    • Graphical representation of additional dependencies: Within cluster map you can now visualize an additional dependency for each cluster element. The used colors can be configured individually. This can be used e.g. to visualize the state of a cluster element.
    • QR codes: QR codes can now be shown within cluster map elements, which allows for a direct navigation from printed cluster maps into the Living EAM Platform.
  • KPI visualizations: We’ve added a new visualization type for showing KPIs using an illustrative image. This gives you the opportunity to show important key figures of your enterprise architecture in personal dashboards.
  • OAuth 2.0 / OpenID Connect: It is now possible to authenticate to the Living EAM Platform via OAuth 2.0 or OpenID Connect. Thus single sign-on is now possible.

In our article in the German specialist journal “Business Technology”, print-out 3.2017, we show that EAM is also relevant for small and medium-sized companies. In order to testify this, we’ve been introducing EAM to the German company “GS Elektromedizinische Geräte G. Stemple”. Done right, EAM can help small and medium-sized companies to deal with the challenge of digitalization. At this point, we look at the necessary changes in their entirety: organization, processes, technologies, law-abidance and, last but not least, further development of the involved players.

We are happy to announce release 2.0 of our Living EAM Platform. The new version includes several new features and also a number of improvements.

The new features are:

  • Geographic Visualisation: Using the new visualisation type “geolocation” you get a geographic overview of architecture elements that include location information with GPS coordinates. On a world map these locations are visualised based on the number of architecture elements.
  • Zoom within cluster maps: When using hierarchical cluster maps it is now possible, to interactively zoom into cluster elements.
  • Color schemes of visualisations: For a more convinient way of coloring your visualisations we now provde a standardized set of colors and an improved selection dialog.
