Enterprise Data Model

An Enterprise Data Model (EDM) integrates the essential data across an entire organization, often organized into subject areas like customers, orders, and products.

Key Layers:

• Reference Architecture: High-level patterns and best practices.
• Conceptual Architecture: Matches architectural components to business needs.
• Logical Architecture: Detailed future state designs, usually implementation-neutral.
• Physical Architecture: Guides the actual technical implementation of the system.

These layers ensure that data is organized logically and stored appropriately, ensuring alignment with business strategy. Read more at Data Model Layers
