Enterprise Architecture, Big data, Internet of things, Smart cities, Cloud computingAbstract
The article conducts a bibliometric study to identify application factors and trends in the implementation of enterprise architecture (EA) in emerging technologies, in health and smart cities. The benefits of using enterprise architecture in various contexts are discussed, such as the complexity of its implementation in healthcare, including the need to balance institutional logics, ensuring privacy and security of patient data to improve operational efficiency and patient care. Additionally, the potential of EA to address the complexity and integration of systems associated with digital transformation in smart cities is highlighted, linking emerging technologies such as the Internet of Things, Cloud Computing, Big Data and Artificial Intelligence.
