Questions and Answers

Do you have some links to guides that would help in deciding how many repositorues we should have and how we shall work

Depends on your domain - if you do Enterprise Architecture (and you want to use more repositories - I know a lot of companies that do not want to have that) then I would typically recommend to slice repositories by speed/lifetime. 1 Repo for the EAM, 1 for each solution/project - approach would be to define the expected outcome/impact on EAM - reuse parts of EAM in the solution/project and then feedback the capabilities/... infected by the solution/project at any defined time (e.g., in agile world as part of DoD (Definition of Done)) - but again - this is very individual. I have found a customer - who generates the EAM repository 100% automatically by feeding it from the solution repositories - as he does not want to have any human destroying the consistency.

Is there any way to export discussions? The point is that sometime we need to share model content including discussion with Team that to not use EA, so it would be good to have a feature to export for example the discussion on a given element (e.g., a requirement) and provide an excel to partner/customer

what about using MS Teams to do so? Enterprise Architect and Microsoft Teams Integration (sparxsystems.com) of course, that also works with Confluence or other tools

Do you know of some DevOps conferences or books that combine DevOps with models?

If I have to write the first one - I will do Models are more stable than any other technology ever seen
