A  Computer Device is a Computing Device which provides services directly to the end-user.

 Computer Devices can host data stores and run Application code.

Examples: workstation, laptop computer, smartphone.

A  Computer Server is a Computing Device which provides processing, storage, and network connectivity services to other Computing Devices on a Computer Network.

As a Computing System, it can host data and run Application code..

A  Deployable Application Package  is a split of application code according to deployment criteria at runtime. For example, it may be Front End/Back End or GUI/Business Logic etc..

Each  Deployable Application Package is associated to required Software Technology(ies) (for running) and can host code of several Application Component.

Architects can also prescribe a kind of hosting artefact (IaaS/PaaS cloud service or IT server model).

A  Hardware Configuration is a Mezzo Concrete Hardware System that is an assembly of Hardware Equipments.

Examples:

- Connected Drone with Online Payment App.

- 3D printer.

- Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs)

- Connected fridge providing an ordering Functionality and of course a freezing Hardware Capability.

- Production equipment in an assembly line (metal forging machine)

- Car

A  Hardware Equipments are tangible assets (e.g., machinery, tools, IT hardware, vehicles, or production systems) used to execute enterprise operations, deliver services, or produce goods.

a Micro Concrete Hardware System.

Examples:

- Fridge compressor

- Car Engine

A  Hardware Technology is an elementary Technology System  used as an enabler by Concrete Hardware Systems (as Required Hardware Technology).

 Hardware Technologys fulfill  Hardware Technology Capabilitys.

Examples:

- Oxford Anor Spectrographs (NMR).

- Spectral Data Services (NMR).

- Valeo Powertrain Systems.

- Joyson Electronics Powertrain Systems.

A  MicroService is a small autonomous unit of software, emphasizing self-management and lightweightness as the means to improve software agility, scalability, and autonomy.

1)  MicroServices are automous or assembled and orchestrated as components of Applications.

2)  MicroServices can be directly deployed to Computing Systems.  MicroServices are both a logical unit of software and a Deployable Package.

3)  MicroServices owns their own data store and dot not have any shared stores with other components.

 MicroService is a Micro enterprise asset that sits at the lower level of Business Software System decomposition.

A  Software Technology is an elementary Software Technology System  used as an enabler by Software Modules.

Examples :

- Application server,

- Message server,

- Storage,

- Business information sharing,

- Operating systems,

- Navigators, etc

A  Computing Device is a physical or virtual computer that can host and run software code. Together with their Deployable Application Packages, they provide Information Outcomes.

Examples: Computer Device, Computer Server.

A  Concrete Hardware System is a man made tangible artifact which exposes  Hardware Capability(ies) and can produce and react to Physical Outcome Events.

A  Concrete Hardware System performs System Processes and participates to System Processes or to Business Processes.

A  Concrete Hardware System can embed Computing Systems. Together with its embedded Computing Systems, a  Concrete Hardware System can also produce and react to Information Outcome Events.

A  Concrete Hardware System may be based on a set of Hardware Technology(ies).

Examples:

- Connected Drone with Online Payment App.

- 3D printer.

- Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs)

- Connected fridge providing an ordering  Functionality and of course a freezing  Hardware Capability.

- Production equipment in an assembly line (metal forging machine)

- Car

An  Deployed Hardware System is a man made tangible artifact which exposes  Physical Resource Capability(ies) and can produce Physical Outcome Events.

An  Deployed Hardware System can embed Computing Systems. Together with its embedded Computing Systems, an  Deployed Hardware System can also deliver Information Outcomes.

An  Deployed Hardware System may be based on a set of Hardware Technology(ies).

Examples:

- The Connected Drone number 234 with Online Payment App.

- The 3D printer in Paris Fablab.

- Robert's automated guided vehicles (AGVs)

- The Production equipment of the assembly line in the factory of Shenzhen.

A  Physical Data Domain is subset of the metadata of an enterprise’s data store.

For instance, a "Sales"  Physical Data Domain contains a "Client" Table and a "Order" Table.

Each Physical Data Entity in a  Physical Data Domain has CRUD characteristics. For instance, the "Client" Table in the "Sales"  Physical Data Domain, has all CRUD characteristics.

 Physical Data Domains define functional data boundaries used both for Data Allocation to Business Systems (see Resource Agent Store) and data governance for data stewardship (see Data Catalog).
