What is EA?

An enterprise architecture (EA) is a conceptual blueprint that defines the structure and operation of an organization. The intent of an enterprise architecture is to determine how an organization can most effectively achieve its current and future objectives. A single slide PowerPoint, size 36" x 48" has been produced for printing onto a poster board for display in the Pathways Internship showcase November 2018. This poster board presentation is a display of my internship from 2014 to present, to include my NIFS (NASA Interns, Fellowships, Scholarships) internship, ITSS (Information Technology Support Services) contract, and current Pathways internship. The presentation discusses my years producing deliverables for: the ISS (International Space Station) Anomaly Project in 2014, the FJET (Frangible Joint Empirical Test) database project in 2015, the CUI (Compact Unique Identifier) project in early 2016, and various Enterprise Architecture deliverables and contributions such as the Roadmap SQL (Structured Query Language) stored procedure and architectural views of Program data elements.

Sharepoint Team Site Configuration

The Data Mining project seeks to bring the capability of data visualization to NASA anomaly and problem reporting systems for the purpose of improving data trending, evaluations, and analyses. Currently NASA systems are tailored to meet the specific needs of its organizations. This tailoring has led to a variety of nomenclatures and levels of annotation for procedures, parts and anomalies making difficult the realization of the common causes for anomalies. Making significant observations and realizing the connection between these causes without a common way to view data is difficult to impossible. The Data Mining project is in its early stages of presenting a common visualization of normalized data through a web based portal. In this paper I detail what I have learned and what I have accomplished during my time as an intern toward the purpose of creating the project portal. I have gone through an iterative process of familiarization with the project and its goals, site design, research, modification and review on the road to creating a common method and location to view the visualized data created under this project.
