Read this definition of the uses of business engineering in developing and implementing business solutions for human-technology interaction. What solutions will be needed as data gets "bigger" and more complex?

The Open Group Architecture Framework (TOGAF)
The Open Group Architecture Framework (TOGAF) presents a structure for organizational architectures which offers a holistic approach to designing, planning, implementing and maintaining information architectures and, thus, covers an important section, albeit not the entire scope, of BE. When applying TOGAF, the enterprise architecture is usually modeled in the three domains: business architecture, information systems architecture (consisting of application architecture and data architecture), and technology architecture.
