===== Discussion =====

An Ecosphere identifies the broadest area of activity under governance within the [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:a:archetype]] Classification Model. It provides the highest-level business, semantic, or institutional classification for an archetype.

For financial systems, the Ecosphere identifies the broad financial area in which an archetype operates. Later Ecosystems, Domains, Logical Profiles, Implementation Profiles, Deployment Profiles, and Evidence Plans inherit that high-level scope unless they explicitly define a different classification path.

===== Definition =====

//broad governed area of activity within an Archetype Classification Model//

===== Source =====

Adapted from **FX Demo Reference Architecture**, Section 2.1.17, **Archetype Classification Codes**; generalised from classification codes to conceptual classification levels for the Financial Systems Archetype.

===== Note =====

An Ecosphere is not a runtime identifier, deployment namespace, DDS Domain ID, repository path, or implementation boundary.

===== Example =====

Structured information-processing archetypes may use Finance, Healthcare, Public Administration, Trade, and Defense as Ecospheres.
