0740 Solution Blueprints¶

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

SolutionBlueprint entity¶

The SolutionBlueprint entity describes a single version of of a solution's components and roles. It inherits from DesignModel which is a type of Collection. The CollectionMembership relationship identifies the list of elements (typically solution components and roles) that should appear on the diagram. The SolutionWire relationships definition of the elements show how they are linked together, and so the CollectionMembership relationship simply documents the role each element plays in supporting the solution.

SolutionDesign relationship¶

There can be multiple solution blueprints describing a solution. 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.
