What is ArchiMate Diagram?
The Open Group created ArchiMate as an open and independent modelling language for enterprise architecture (EA). The standard provides a notation to enable enterprise architects to describe, analyze, and visualize the relationships among business domains in an unambiguous way. ArchiMate enables the creation of fully integrated models of the organization’s EA, the motivation for it, and the programs, projects and migration paths to implement it. ArchiMate 3 consists of the core layers, and as well as the extensions for modeling the motivations for the architecture, and its implementation and migration planning.

ArchiMate Diagram Example: Implementation and Migratio
This ArchiMate diagram example gives an overview of an architecture project by presenting the high level architecture components involved and the result of gap analysis. Such a diagram relates architecture work packages to the related technology and application components. Besides, it uses different color code to shows the result of gap analysis. For instance, green for components that has to be added, red for components that has to be removed and blue for components that are not affected and will have no changes.
