Architecture to cater to the changing strategies of Eight Twelve to better respond to the changes in the
economic and technology environments.Some of the key issues which need to be addressed in this re-architecting work are:
1. Since Eight Twelve’s retail chain operate 24 hours a day and are expanding to South America and Europe,
the retail chain business ecosystem should be able to withstand any unforeseen disruptions which might affect
the chain’s day to day operations. This is highly critical to ensure high levels of customer satisfaction and thus
maintaining and enhancing Eight Twelve’s revenue chain.
2. Dependency between the application components, which are the nerve centers to Eight Twelve’s
sophisticated range of services both external and internal, and the application platform and technology
infrastructure should be minimal. This would facilitate scalability and ease of enhancement of the service
offerings.
3. Eight Twelve uses the ARTS Data Model and the quality of data is of utmost importance for its operation.
4. Users of the Enterprise Information ecosystem should have an environment which is able to cater to their
needs without any undue delays.
Which one of the following set of Architecture Principles do you feel is the most appropriate for these guidelines
