Hi Everyone,
I'll send out a
reminder about our meeting tomorrow morning, but for now I want
to share some thinking I've been doing on developing an overall
strategy for promoting the EDXL family. Basically, I'm looking
at various Strategy Modeling analyses and one of those is a
Value Chain Analysis that starts by looking at core processes in
sequence (hence Value-Chain), so I've applied that to our work
on the EDXL family and come up with a start that looks like
this:
- Research (working out what standards are needed and
what problems EDXL solves) -- This is something we have done for
each of the EDXL specifications, so we have a well-worked out
methodology of sub-processes.
- Consult with Practitioners/Government Sponsors/NGO Consortia
- Gather requirements from above (formal
requirements/candidate specifications)
- Standard Development
- Define Scope from Requirements
- Define Vocabulary and Data Model
- Write Specification
- Standard Approval (getting OASIS EM TC Committee
Specification Approval, OASIS Standard Approval)
- Standard Versioning uses overall process in sequence
based on feedback from implementors/users
- EDXL Family-wide Promotion
- Provide overall UML class model with each specification
included along with supporting elements
- Provide StratML-based Strategy for overall EDXL family
- Breakdown of audience/markets and needs/motivations for
each in relation to EDXL
- Breakdown of SOA v. Microservice Architecture for EDXL
software implementations
- Breakdown of Platforms, DBMS, Application Delivery
Systems--mobile devices, cloud-based data persistence --
needs much more work
- Breakdown of Key Technologies (XML vs. JSON for
inter-service messaging/communications)
- EDXL Individual Standard/Committee Specification Promotion
- Provide individual database schema for each specification
and supporting elements (Based on overall UML Datamodel)?
- Technology vendor marketing and sign up
- Vendor product development
- Solution marketing
Cheers,
Rex
