Enterprises choose Enterprise Architecture (EA) solution, in order to overcome dynamic business challenges and in coordinate various enterprise elements.In this article, a solution is suggested for the Enterprise Architecture development.The solution focuses on architecture data in the Enterprise Architecture development process.Data-centric architecture approach is preferred product-centric architecture approach.We suggest using Enterprise Ontology (EO) as context for collecting architecture data; Enterprise Ontology enhances quality of architecture data and lead to effective architecture results for decision-making.First, Enterprise is modeled using the ontology.Then how collecting Enterprise Architecture data based on the Enterprise Ontology is explained.Finally, the results and advantages of the solution are demonstrated.
