ArchiPulse stores, visualizes, and analyzes your ArchiMate models in a self-hosted web platform. Your architecture is not a static file — it's living, collaborative data.
Most tools force you to choose between an obtuse ontology stack or an expensive closed platform. ArchiPulse takes a third path.
Proprietary formats, expensive licenses, and data you can't query. Or the other extreme: OWL ontologies, Protégé, and SPARQL queries that only academics can read.
The ArchiMate Open Exchange Format becomes the data model itself. Export is a SELECT. Import is an INSERT. Collaboration is database-native. No custom metamodel, no vendor dependency.
Everything your team needs to make EA a living, queryable, collaborative practice — not a PowerPoint exercise.
Multiple architects edit the same workspace simultaneously. Optimistic locking prevents silent overwrites. Conflicts shown with author and timestamp.
Upload an AOEF file and review element-by-element what changed and who changed it. Your model's history, readable at a glance.
Faithful reproduction of ArchiMate views as designed. Plus pre-defined EAM analytical views — capability maps, application landscapes, technology radars — generated from SQL.
Cytoscape.js with visual filters or direct SQL for ad-hoc queries. Navigate your architecture the way it actually connects.
Connect real-world resource catalogs — AWS, Confluence, Excel, custom sources — to your ArchiMate workspace. Community-contributed extractor library.
Import and export AOEF XML or AJX at any time. Compatible with Archi, archimate-editor, BiZZdesign, Sparx EA. Full REST API. Self-hosted.
The ArchiMate Open Exchange Format already defines what entities exist. Map them directly to PostgreSQL tables — and everything else becomes trivial.
Use Archi, archimate-editor, or any AOEF-compatible tool. ArchiPulse works alongside what you already have — it doesn't replace it.
ArchiPulse parses the model and stores it in PostgreSQL — one row per element, relationship, and diagram. XSD validated. No transformation magic.
Multiple architects edit the same workspace directly via the web interface or REST API. The enrichment pipeline pulls from external sources and maps resources to ArchiMate elements.
The viewer renders static diagrams and generates EAM analytical views. The graph explorer lets you navigate ad-hoc. Export back to AOEF at any time — importable in any compliant tool.
ArchiPulse is in early development. The roadmap is managed publicly via GitHub Milestones — community input shapes it.
We're in early development and contributions of all kinds are welcome. These are the areas with the most impact right now.
The Go parser is the first critical piece. If you know ArchiMate's Open Exchange Format, this is where to start.
Migrations for the AOEF-as-tables schema. The heart of the platform's simplicity.
Connectors for AWS, Azure, Jira, Confluence, ServiceNow, and sources your organization uses.
SQL queries that generate meaningful analytical views — capability maps, application landscapes, tech radars.
Cytoscape.js graph explorer and static viewer. If you work with graph visualization, join here.
Architecture decisions, guides, and examples. Clear docs lower the barrier for every future contributor.
ArchiPulse is free, open source, and self-hosted. Apache 2.0. Your data stays in your infrastructure.
