Optional Features: Tech Platform Fact Sheet

📘

Important Information

This page is a modeling guideline for Meta Model v3. Updated guidelines for Meta Model v4 will follow very soon.

Overview

It is possible to extend the Data Model with an optional Tech Platform Fact Sheet. Tech Platform is a Fact Sheet that allows you to group IT Components into standardized platform offerings for applications (see Windows Client Tech Platform example below).

Tech Platforms can be used in the context of standards management (e.g. to reduce the numbers of used IT Components) and help with data quality maintenance.

Platform owners can define Tech Platforms to offer a standard set of IT Components to the application owners to help them build out their applications.
