0740 Solution Blueprints¶

A solution blueprint is a collection of solution components that describe the architecture of a digital service, or a new capability.

SolutionBlueprint entity¶

The SolutionBlueprint entity describes a single version of the digital service's architecture. It inherits from DesignModel which is a type of Collection. The CollectionMembership relationship identifies the list of solution components that implement the digital service. The definition of the solution components shows how they are linked together and so SolutionBlueprintComposition simply documents the role each solution component plays in supporting the digital service.

SolutionDesign relationship¶

There can be multiple solution blueprints for an architecture. For example:

• to describe a version of the architecture.
• to define an aspect of the architecture.
• to describe different levels of detail.

The SolutionDesign relationship identifies which element the blueprint describes. Its attributes identify what aspect of the architecture is covered by the blueprint.
