The following publications document the development of the 3D Federated Software Architecture, from the original enterprise-system concept through the implemented architecture and government reference models.

​

Government Reference Models for Federated Systems
By Blair Kjenner
**Coming Soon**

​

This publication extends the architecture into a large-scale government reference model.

It describes how government can be modeled as a federation of independently operated business-unit systems built on shared 3D Core and Government Core structures. It also documents the generated government environment and the reference models used to examine data sharing, governance, aggregation, and incremental implementation across government.

3D Federated Software Architecture:
An Enterprise System Platform with Inherent Data Exchange and Aggregation
By Blair Kjenner
 

This technical publication documents the implemented 3D architecture in greater detail, including persistent identity, record governance, subscription-based exchange, metadata-driven systems, system generation, Core models, and automated data-warehouse generation.

The publication is openly available through Zenodo.

​Fire, Water, Earth, Air, and Data

Mobilizing Data with Keys, Models, and Governance

By Blair Kjenner and Kewal Dhariwal.

This book introduces the original thinking behind the 3D approach: designing enterprise systems from the beginning so they can exchange and aggregate data rather than addressing integration after systems have been built. It covers the design principles, Core Data Models, application framework, data exchange concepts, and methodology that formed the foundation for the later architecture.
