Semantic Domain Integration Architecture (SDIA): A Vendor‑Agnostic Semantic Governance Model for Enterprise Integration - v3.0 - FINAL

Key Points

The primary aim is to establish a comprehensive framework for semantic governance in enterprise integration, ensuring cohesion and continuity.
Development of a taxonomy, ontology, and metamodel defining architectural elements.
Implementation of a five-layer architecture for seamless data integration and event handling.
Consolidation of structural elements with no plans for further updates to the architecture.
The SDIA framework maintains semantic continuity across different layers of integration.
Core elements include domain as a primary key and deterministic resolution in processing.
The finalized version integrates all aspects without alterations planned moving forward.

Abstract

SDIA — Semantic Domain Integration Architecture Taxonomy, Ontology, and Metamodel of a Vendor-Agnostic Semantic Integration Architecture — v3.0 FINAL Zenodo: 10.5281/zenodo.18877635🔗 https://zenodo.org/record/18877635 SDIA is the umbrella architecture of the DEIP ecosystem. It defines the taxonomy, ontology, and implicit metamodel that govern how domain semantics are preserved across five layers: gateway (GDCR), resolution (DDCR), orchestration (ODCP), events (EDCP), and data (DDCP). This is not a collection of acronyms. It is a unified model for end-to-end semantic continuity. What SDIA provides: ↳ Taxonomy — classification of architectural elements (Domain, Entity, Action, Target, Capability, Flow, Event, Table, Credential)↳ Ontology — meaning and valid relationships between classes↳ Metamodel — minimum structural grammar for modeling↳ Five-layer architecture — from facade to data, same domain token unchanged↳ Architectural invariants — domain as primary key, semantic continuity, deterministic resolution, vendor-agnostic The core proposition: the same human-readable intent survives, without distortion, from entry point to execution and onward to event propagation. This is the FINAL version of SDIA. The taxonomy, ontology, and metamodel are consolidated. No further structural updates are planned.
