17. Diagrams in LeanIX.mp4

In this course, you'll learn the basics of our LinearX diagram editors, FreeDraw and Dataflow. These are popular features in LinearX that provide enterprise architects with advanced visual modeling capabilities. I'm Andrick Reinfeldt and I will guide you through this section. Diagrams are a way to visually represent the structure of an organization's IT landscape. They are helpful for understanding complex architecture by breaking it down into smaller pieces. Diagrams can also be used to explore the architecture and data flow from different perspectives. Diagrams allow enterprise architects to leverage existing relations within Linux inventory and construct comprehensive models. Solution architects and data architects will also find the diagram feature highly valuable. In this course you will learn when to use Linux FreeDraw and Dataflow diagram editors and how to use them based on typical examples. By the end, you will have the skill to use diagrams to model your enterprise architecture effectively and contribute to informed and effective decision making. We hope that you enjoy this course.

Learn how diagrams can help address the complexity of an organization's IT environment by breaking down and visualizing the structure. Discover the value of Linux diagrams and how they can make modeling faster and more efficient.<br><br># This description was auto-generated #

18. Why Do You Need Diagrams-.mp4

The larger an organization, the more complex its IT environment becomes. Diagrams help address this complexity by breaking down and visualizing the structure into smaller scopes. They enable you to define your boundaries and domains, allowing you to focus on specific aspects of your enterprise architecture. Now, let's understand the value you get from Linux diagrams. Make modeling faster and more efficient. Facilitate discussions with your teams, managers and stakeholders from other departments, high flexibility and control of visualizing what you want to show, unlike Linux reports where you are more limited to specific dimensions and parameters. While not a comprehensive modeling solution, diagrams excel at providing a high-level overview of the landscape, serving as a valuable starting point for solution architect If you need to model your landscape on a very granular level, use a different tool designed for that purpose.

19. What Are Diagrams-.mp4

Let's delve into the concept of diagrams. They serve as a tool to create visual representations or models of an organization's enterprise architecture. They offer a clear and interactive view of complex IT landscapes, allowing you to understand certain aspects from various perspectives. With diagrams, you can explore complex dependencies among different architectural elements, visualize how your applications are integrated by analyzing the data flow, create a custom representation of a specific part of your architecture, work with inventory items and visualize the architecture and data flow from your point of view. Now let's dive into Linux diagrams and explore the layout and functionalities. To access the diagrams section open your Linux workspace and click on the diagrams tab in the menu bar. Take a moment to familiarize yourself with the main sections. On the left you will find diagram types, categorizing your diagrams by type. In the personal section you'll find subsections shared with me, recently used and my diagrams. Displaying diagrams shared with you your recent diagrams and your creations respectively. Navigating through your diagrams is straightforward. Use the search bar to find specific names or keywords. Browse through the listed diagrams in the main window, each tile displaying its name and preview image. To open any diagram, click on the tile. Dive into the diagram viewer to see the complete picture with all connected elements. Explore using zoom and pan functions at your own pace. Use the filter function on the left to focus on specific details by filtering irrelevant fact sheets. An edit button is available for those with editing permissions. We'll explore the diagram editor in more detail in a dedicated lesson later.

Learn how to create diagrams in Linux using FreeDraw and Dataflow. Discover the advantages of each tool and when to use them. Enhance your visualizations and understand data flow.<br><br># This description was auto-generated #

20. Diagrams Editor.mp4

There are three ways to create diagrams in Linux using the FreeDraw, Dataflow and Lucid integration. In this lesson, we will focus on the two advantages for the FreeDraw and Dataflow. Let's understand how FreeDraw and Dataflow are distinct and how and when to use them. The FreeDraw tool offers flexibility and creativity in designing your diagrams from scratch. Whether you want to explore dependencies among architectural elements, Zoom in on one specific aspect of your architecture for deeper analysis or create specific visualizations like organizational hierarchies and business capability maps. This editor has got you covered. Imagine you need to dive deep into one particular architectural element, say an application. With 3DRAW you can focus on that element and explore its dependencies using various shapes, symbols and connectors to visualize the relations. You can visualize the integrations with other applications and other dependencies that are not easily represented in a report. By using FreeDraw you can add additional components like data objects, IT components supporting the application, business capabilities it is supporting, project it depends on and more. It helps you to look at the specific element from multiple perspectives and allows you to create a tailored view that is perfect for sharing with your management or team. On the other hand, you can create visualizations to show a structure in a specific way, such as an organizational hierarchy or specific domain of business capability and its relations. A free draw is an excellent option for showcasing business capability maps, organizational landscapes or any other specific visualization in a way that suits your organization's unique needs. Dataflow focuses on illustrating the flow of data. You can add applications and interfaces in the diagram to gain insights into how data moves. The Dataflow diagram helps you to understand how applications exchange information. For instance, when replacing an application, the diagram helps to identify dependencies and data transfers that need to be recreated. When adding a new application, the diagram shows which existing applications need to be integrated based on the data they provide and receive. The editors for FreeDraw and Dataflow diagram have a similar layout. On the left side of the canvas there is a shape library with collections of shape groups. You can expand or collapse each group to access different shapes. The format panel on the right side holds options and properties to arrange and style shapes, connectors and text within the diagrams. The menu and toolbar located on top provide various functionalities like adding elements from the inventory or shapes and objects. Some options become available based on the selected elements in the diagram.
