Abstract

Enterprise architecture is an explicit description of existing documents, favorable relationships between business, processes and information technology and provides an outline for the creation of extensive information systems at the organization level. In fact, Enterprise architecture helps to implement an organization's strategy in a coordinated manner by aligning business processes with data and technology .This study examines and compares previous literature and academic articles on the benefits of adopting and applying Enterprise architecture, its indicators and modeling frameworks, as well as the factors affecting the implementation of Enterprise architecture. The results of this article indicate that factors such as clear understanding of the organization's business, increasing responsiveness to change and its management, information systems integration, information technology investments and acquisition strategies, development and maintenance of Enterprise architecture standards, business alignment With information technology, business process improvement, organizational agility, risk management and organizational governance have been considered from different perspectives in Enterprise architecture. The results of this article help to create a better understanding of Enterprise architecture and thus its successful implementation and execution.
