Does anyone have a UK solution architecture document they could share?

It's for my tech lead, I assumed technical people would know what it meant.Originally posted by stek View Post
Reading back through my IMs, I think he is saying that the entities and processes are much different in the UK to other countries in the solution architect domain, does that make sense? He says has only worked on US projects before so he wants to ensure the customer is given the solution architecture in a format they are familiar with. Hence the request for UK examples.
Make sense?Comment

Have a look on jobserve and pinch a spec from there....
<EDIT>
Just re-read - this isn't a job spec but a Solution Architecture Design Document you're looking for.
Well that usual is customer dependent, every medium-large scal org has there own governance process and document templates, if in doubt go with something that ticks the TOGAF boxes.
But if he's using a common standard such as UML then the entities and artifacts are common but I've worked with US and Canadian teams and the artifacts and deliverables are still pretty much the same, only the style changes.

Yep, take a look at the latest TOGAF manual (mine's v8, they're on v9.1 now)

Nope they are pretty much the same. TOGAF is a rather Generic framework. How you document the Architecture within the TOGAF framework normally comes down to using UML and any in house artifacts and structures. Your Enterprise Architects should be the owners of this....
I'm wondering if your Architect is talking about Systems development techniques which used to be different in the UK using a V-Model tecnique but now Waterfall and Agile techniques are used here in the UKComment

I pointed him in the direction of the links supplied here and some others I found but haven't had anything back yet.
He also hasn't appeared on IM for a few days.
How long would you expect it to take to produce one of these documents?Comment
