Question: Cataloguing Architectural Blueprints for Reusability

Reusability of prior designs is critical when creating best-practice solutions in the enterprise. Capturing such designs provides useful guidance for Enterprise Architects. However, cataloguing such blueprints for reuse is a daunting task, and processes to perform cataloguing have yet to be formalized and standardized. Large corporations typically invest in developing and standardizing such processes internally, which typically results in a variety of possible cataloguing approaches that are specific to the industry or enterprise.

For this Discussion, post a cohesive response that addresses the following:

1. Propose a "use case" scenario for reusing architectural models and blueprints.

2. Explain, in particular, how an architect would search for architectural models and blueprints using metadata.

3. Describe what else you would need to consider in order to effectively catalog and reuse models.
Be sure to defend and support your opinion, and remember to properly cite your sources according to APA guidelines.

Rubic for Discussion - Only a discussion does not have to be 2 of 3 pages as long as the points are hit and citations and references are available to back up the point.
