Enterprise architecture is a method used by businesses to standardize and arrange their IT infrastructure in a way that supports their operational objectives. The general architecture of a company may be described by four interconnected sub-architectures:

Business architecture: Describes the organization's business strategy, procedures, resources, and objectives.

Describes the data sources, structures, flows, and quality of the information used by the organization.

Applications, services, and systems that support an organization's business operations and information requirements are referred to as part of the application architecture.

Technology architecture: Describes the hardware, software, network, and security infrastructure that support the application and information architecture.
