  4. Reference Architectures • “A Reference Architecture is an authoritative source of information about a specific subject area that guides and constrains the instantiations of multiple architectures and solutions” • The DoD‐wide Reference Architecture provides information, guidance, and direction that is applicable across DoD. This information, guidance, and direction are provided in the five (5) elements that comprise a Reference Architecture: • Strategic Purpose – Identifies goals and objectives of the Reference Architecture and describes the specific purpose of and the problem(s) to be addressed by the Reference Architecture. • Principles –Sufficient high level foundational statements of rules, culture, and values that drive technical positions and patterns. • Technical Positions –Technical guidance and standards, based on specified principles that need to be followed and implemented as part of the solution. • Patterns (Templates) –Generalized architecture representations (viewpoints, graphical/textual models, diagrams, etc.) that show relationships between elements and artifacts specified by the technical positions. • Vocabulary – Acronyms, terms, and definitions that are used in the Reference Architecture and are relevant to architectures and solutions that are guided and constrained by the Reference Architecture.

  6. DoD Information Enterprise Architecture • Purpose: • Unifies the concepts embedded in the DoD’s net-centric strategies into common vision • Describes the integrated Defense Information Enterprise and the rules for information assets and resources that enable it • Fosters alignment of DoD architectures with the enterprise net-centric vision • Integration of NCOW RM content • Appendix D: Applying the DoD IEA • Appendix E: Compliance with the DoD IEA • Appendix G: Requirements for Compliance to the DoD EA • Available at: http://dodcio.defense.gov/sites/diea/ UNCLASSIFIED 6

  9. Federal Data CenterConsolidation Initiative (FDCCI) • OMB Federal Data Center Consolidation Initiative memo dated 2/26/2010 • Overall goals are: • Green IT – reduce overall energy and real estate footprint • Reduce cost of data center hardware, software and operations • Increase overall IT security posture of government; and • Shift IT investments to more efficient computing platforms and technologies • Deliverables • Initial Asset Inventory: High-level understanding of scale and size of existing data centers, IT infrastructure assets, and applications. • Initial Data Center Consolidation Plan: Potential areas for consolidation. High-level roadmap for transitioning to consolidated end-state architecture. • Final Asset Inventory Baseline: Foundation for developing final data center consolidation plans. • Final Data Center Consolidation Plan: Technical roadmap and approach for achieving the targets for infrastructure utilization, energy efficiency, and cost efficiency. • Next Steps • Ongoing Monitoring: Report inventory annually by Q3 of each FY; consolidation plan execution progress quarterly, and reflect changes in asset inventories and account for execution of data center consolidation plans in budgets.
