Achieving Business Scalability With Composable Enterprise Architecture
Wei-Ji Wang · IEEE Access · 2025
This study introduces Composable Enterprise Architecture (CEA) as a strategic approach to address the inherent rigidity and operational constraints of traditional enterprise systems, which often impede adaptability to fast-changing market conditions. By implementing a modular, cloud-native framework centered on Packaged Business Capabilities (PBCs), CEA enhances system reusability, autonomy, and scalability. Based on semi-structured interviews with industry stakeholders and extensive operational data analysis, the study reports significant benefits achieved through CEA adoption, including a 55% reduction in system downtime, an increase in deployment frequency from quarterly to monthly, and a 60% decrease in time-to-market for new features. These structural improvements streamline updates, reduce operational risks, and empower organizations to respond dynamically to market changes. As such, CEA offers a valuable architectural strategy to drive digital transformation and enhance agility across varied industries.
