Developed by Simon Brown, the C4 model provides a structured, multi-layered approach to diagramming software systems, promoting organizational clarity and abstraction consistency. The content details how the C4 model was integrated into the enterprise architecture metamodel at a financial institution, highlighting its utility in addressing common architectural challenges while acknowledging its scope limitations in areas like data modeling and process flows.",{"@graph":69,"@context":122},[70,84,105],{"@type":71,"itemListElement":72},"BreadcrumbList",[73,77,79,82],{"item":74,"name":75,"@type":76,"position":8},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":78,"name":9,"@type":76,"position":14},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/",{"item":80,"name":30,"@type":76,"position":81},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/technology/",3,{"item":83,"name":65,"@type":76,"position":19},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/c4-model-architecture-integration-strategies/655726/",{"url":83,"name":65,"@type":85,"image":86,"author":91,"headline":65,"publisher":94,"fileFormat":97,"inLanguage":63,"description":67,"dateModified":98,"datePublished":99,"encodingFormat":97,"isAccessibleForFree":100,"interactionStatistic":101},"DigitalDocument",{"url":87,"@type":88,"width":89,"height":90},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/c4-model-architecture-integration-strategies/655726.png","ImageObject",300,407,{"name":92,"@type":93},"adawds","Person",{"url":74,"name":95,"@type":96},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-10-31","2026-10-25",true,{"@type":102,"interactionType":103,"userInteractionCount":52},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":104},"ViewAction",{"@type":106,"mainEntity":107},"FAQPage",[108,114,118],{"name":109,"@type":110,"acceptedAnswer":111},"What is the primary purpose of the C4 model?","Question",{"text":112,"@type":113},"The C4 model is an approach to software architecture diagramming designed to bring organization through four distinct layers of abstraction and ensure clarity in architectural documentation.","Answer",{"name":115,"@type":110,"acceptedAnswer":116},"What are the specific limitations of the C4 model?",{"text":117,"@type":113},"The C4 model is not a comprehensive architecture collection or modelling solution; specifically, it does not address data architecture, customer journeys, or process flows.",{"name":119,"@type":110,"acceptedAnswer":120},"How does the C4 model assist in architecture integration?",{"text":121,"@type":113},"It serves as a bridge or 'glue' between enterprise, business, solution, and software architecture layers, facilitating an easier transition between different levels of abstraction.","https://schema.org",{"og:url":83,"og:type":124,"og:title":65,"og:site_name":95,"og:description":67},"article",{"robots":126,"canonical":83},"index,follow",{"doc_id":128,"site_id":62},655726,1793030621,{"code":4,"msg":5,"data":131},{"doc_id":128,"user_id":132,"nickname":92,"user_avatar":133,"doc_module":4,"category_id":29,"category_name":30,"doc_title":65,"doc_description":67,"doc_content":134,"file_id":135,"file_url":136,"file_type":137,"file_size":138,"view_count":52,"is_deleted":4,"is_public":8,"is_downloadable":8,"audit_status":8,"page_count":139,"language":140,"language_code":63,"site_id":62,"html_lang":63,"table_of_contents":141,"faqs":142,"seo_title":143,"seo_description":67,"update_tm":144,"read_time":145},3985747872983,"https://ap-avatar.wpscdn.com/davatar_994ba38a5ba835b3df7d355c54d3ed8d","Using the C4 model as the glue between enterprise, business, solutions and software  \narchitectures  \nSimon Field  \nEnterprise Architecture Specialist Group  \n5th Annual Conference Thursday 29th September 2022 London, UK  \n\\#BCS  \n\\#BCSEASG  \n\\#EASGAC2022  \nUsing the C4 model as the glue between enterprise, business, solutions and software architectures  \nSimon Field  \nPrincipal Architect  \nOutline  \n• C4 model – a quick introduction  \n• Using C4 model at the Bank  \n• EA Challenges and how C4 model can help  \n• How we built C4 model into our EA metamodel  \n• Questions  \nC4 model  \nA quick introduction  \nWhat is the C4 model?
