Abstract

Corporate Cloud transformation is expected to continue to grow double-digit each of the next few years. This growth is augmented by digital transformation, which itself is gaining huge momentum due to the recent consumer behavior trends and especially the COVID pandemic. It is also estimated that globally billions of dollars are wasted due to efficiencies in the way cloud migrations are launched and handled. This paper discusses a framework using which organizations can successfully execute cloud transformation.

    Integrated Enterprise Architecture for Coffee Shop Supply Chain and Customer Interaction Using TOGAF ADM
    Sanky Yunliahni, Handri Santoso, Erick Dazki et al. · 2026 · SinkrOn · Not summarized yet
    Abstract

    Although the coffee shop sector continues to expand quickly, enterprise architecture research in this domain has generally treated the customer-facing point of sale and the upstream sourcing of coffee as two separate concerns, so that supply chain and customer interaction are rarely represented together. This study builds an integrated enterprise architecture model for a coffee shop enterprise that brings supply chain operations and customer interaction into a single design spanning three product lines: coffee beverage, non-coffee beverage, and food and snack sales. The study is conceptual and design-oriented; the enterprise modelled is a representative reference case reconstructed from oper…
