What is the Enterprise Architecture for Adaptive course about?

Enterprise architects in healthcare face a constant tension: frameworks like Zachman offer structure, but real-world care delivery evolves faster than models can update. Legacy alignment methods fail under regulatory shifts, interoperability pressures, and decentralized data flows. Without a method to adapt architecture dynamically, even well-designed systems become technical debt.
