Auto-Discovery
A common challenge facing IT organizations undertaking Enterprise Architecture and Business Process Optimization initiatives is finding efficient methods for discovering and updating organizational information, architecture meta-data, as well as IT assets, while minimizing human interaction. Enterprise Architecture, a living project, must evolve to remain valuable and current. Telelogic System Architect® provides robust import capabilities to collect this ever-evolving data.
- CMDB Integration - CMBD, a configuration management database for enterprise IT organizations, captures, documents, and stores the service dependencies and associated infrastructure that support business services. This enables the use of assets under configuration control including physical items such as servers, networks, storage, software, as well as business services like VPNs, end users, and service level agreements. The data can be imported into System Architect, enabling organizations to automatically discover and organize their applications and IT infrastructure information, then visualize, analyze, and share that information. The results are an 'Actionable Architecture' that provides IT executives with the most current data so that they can make better decisions about IT initiatives like SOA.

- Database Reverse and Forward Engineering - System Architect provides reverse engineering and side-by-side compare and selective synchronization for latest versions of Oracle, SQL Server, and DB2, both by live connection and by DDL file.
- Integrations to other Data Modeling products - Import data models located in other data modeling products such as; ERWin, Oracle Designer, and Embarcadero. This integration allows disparate data models to become part of the master EA repository in System Architect.
- XML Schema and XML DTD reverse engineering.
- Additional System Architect import avenues are also possible through XMI import/export, an open API, Web services.
