I want to tell you something: Last week while I was exploring the press releases, I sow a press release issued by Gartner and it says: By 2020, 60% of Digital Businesses Will Suffer Major Service Failures Due to the Inability of IT Security Teams to Manage Digital RiskThe good news is that using the Enterprise Architecture as a framework provides us with a modeler and consistent methods for implementing our digital business and hence we can have better control on that risk. And in fact, the subject of this presentation will also help us to address this goal

Digital business is the creation of new business designs by blurring the digital and physical worlds due to the convergence of people, business and things

IoT Smart Transportation ConferenceBuilding the Architecture of Transportation Digital Business Alaa MahjoubSlide #

what is digital business?Well, Before we begin, digital business is not just an information technology solution, it is not just an intelligent transportation system and it is not just an operational technology solution.

Digital business is the creation of new business designs by blurring the digital and physical worlds due to the convergence of people, business and things

IoT Smart Transportation ConferenceBuilding the Architecture of Transportation Digital Business Alaa MahjoubSlide #

By connecting people, places, things and information to the internet, new business opportunities are created, and business model can be rethink, reinvented, reimagined and transformed. And why we can do that?Because the new technologies of social-media, mobility, cloud-computing, big data and Internet of Things are enabling us to do that.

In the digital business we have the internet of people. people are providing and consuming information. Social media information, calendar information, location information and online transactions

In the digital business, we have the internet of places. We have connected homes, connected offices and connected buildings.

Information about places is there. Number of people in the place. Number of people visited the place. Waite times and reservation services.

In the digital business we have the internet of things. We have the connected vehicles, connected busses, connected taxis, and connected traffic signals. Things are providing and consuming information. Location information, speed information and traffic information.

In the digital business we have the internet of information. We have bus schedules, expected disruptions and etcetera and so forth. 7

LEVERAGING THE INFORMATION COLLECTED FROM THE MANY SOURCESEXAMPLE : LONDON TUBE HEARTBEAT (BY HERE) HTTPS://COMPANY.HERE.COM/HERE/Click here to access the web site

IoT Smart Transportation ConferenceBuilding the Architecture of Transportation Digital Business Alaa MahjoubSlide #

The tremendous amount of information produced by the many people, The many businesses and the many things connected to the internet should be utilized` to create new-revenue, better customer-experience, and better business-processes.

In this example, people made 1.35 billion journeys on London's tube network last year.

Every weekday, London sees 2 million people travelling-in on the tube... and 2 million traveling back.

This Tube-Heartbeat-application is used to map Londons busy Underground system.

And so, People can find-out when their local station is busiest.

And people can find-out whether they travel indeed is busier than it used to be.

Two important questions arise here.

You would going to say, well, but how can we coordinate the analysis, design, planning, and implementation activities of the digital business transformation

The answer is, the Enterprise Architecture practice is the method to do that.

Enterprise architecture is the process of translating business vision and strategy into effective enterprise change by creating, communicating and improving the key requirements, principles and models that describe the enterprise's future state and enable its evolution.

You may going to say, wait a minute Alaa, from where should we start? we have in this diagram the business architecture, the information architecture, the application architecture and the technology architecture. So from where should we start? From which layer of the Enterprise Architecture should we start? ?In fact, we should Start from the business architecture

Business architecture models such as Strategy Maps, Business Capability Models and Business Process Models are used to model the business architecture and this is a good starting point.

IoT Smart Transportation ConferenceBuilding the Architecture of Transportation Digital Business Alaa MahjoubSlide #

A business capability model is a representation of an organizations business, independent of the organizations structure, processes, people or domains.

It is designed to enable an organization to express and explore what it does, and so it can make decisions about how to do it.

The example we see here is a high-level business capability model of a traditional governmental transportation agency.

In this example, there are 8 main traditional business capabilities: Regulation, Business-Administration, Demand-Management, Project-Delivery, Asset-Management, Operation-Management, Maintenance-Management and Market and Customer Management.

However, delivering digital business requires new capabilities to develop new digital services.

Theses capabilities include: Customer and partner analysis, New business model creation, Ecosystem management, Contextual Information-Management and digital-services design and implementation.

IoT Smart Transportation ConferenceBuilding the Architecture of Transportation Digital Business Alaa MahjoubSlide #

The new digital business services I mentioned at the end of the previous slide differ from the traditional e-business and digital marketing because of the specific integration of "things

And that is why a new technology platform (The Internet of Things Platform) should be integrated in the information and technology layers of the Enterprise Architecture to support these new digital business services

The IoT Platform is a hybrid technology platform that combines multiple capabilities that span traditional Information Technology and Operational Technology environments

IoT Smart Transportation ConferenceBuilding the Architecture of Transportation Digital Business Alaa MahjoubSlide #

The Internet of Things platform communicates with the Things through Gateways and agents

The gateways and agents host the application logic, and communicate with the physical things connected to it. Device management is responsible for provisioning and connecting to devices using various communication protocols

It also secures IoT communications, data, and the things,

It also installs and upgrades the IoT software.

The IoT platforms provides integration middleware such as message-oriented middleware, API, and ESB.

This middleware typically offer integration capabilities, such as publishing and consuming APIs; protocol support, as well as some-form of data translation The Business Intelligence and Analytics capability provides data monitoring & analytics function

It can also act as an Extract, Transform and Load tool for the Data & Analytics Platform.

IoT Platform often includes data storage capability (such as the Apache Hadoop or database )

This data storage capability is used to store and search the data acquired from the connected IoT devices

The orchestration capability coordinates the interactions of people, systems and things to produce the desired business outcomes.

In fact, there are many applications that can be supported by the transportation digital business platforms.

One of the many applications that can be supported by the transportation digital business platform is the connected Metrorail

The first step to implement the connected Metrorail is to build the metro network itself

The second step is to install the Internet of things endpoints such as the entry and exit turnstiles in the metro stations

The third step is to install the transportation digital business platform

The fourth step is to connect the IoT endpoints to the platform

The fifth step is to connect the customers to the customer experience platform

And the last step is to connect the Metro network to the ecosystems

Ecosystems may be things such as other transportation-mode networks OR traffic monitoring and control centres,

IoT Smart Transportation ConferenceBuilding the Architecture of Transportation Digital Business Alaa MahjoubSlide #

Having done that we can now get the benefits of the connected Metrorail

The Metrorail transportation can now be better coordinated with the other modes of transportation services in the Multi-modal Transportation Network

And this coordination can take place in a local, national or international levels of multimodal transportation networks

The Metro transportation service is now also being ready to form an integrated part of a larger transportation system such as a door-to-door travels-as-a-service system
