3.2 Alignment with FDIS-RA
FDIS-RA provides financial-domain architectural precedent for systems that interpret, validate, compare, and govern regulated data. The Financial Systems Archetype aligns with FDIS-RA by treating meaning, interpretation, validation, provenance, comparability, and evidence as architectural concerns rather than implementation by-products. FDIS-RA does not replace SIP-RA as the parent reference architecture. Instead, FDIS-RA informs the financial-domain interpretation concerns that the Financial Systems Archetype must preserve. Part 1 uses FDIS-RA as an alignment source for the following conceptual concerns.
Table 3-2: FDIS-RA concerns aligned with the Conceptual Architecture
| FDIS-RA concern | Part 1 treatment |
|---|---|
| Semantic interpretation as an architectural concern | Defines semantics, interpretation, and governance of meaning as conceptual concerns. |
| Separation of evidence, observation, interpretation, validation, and analytical consumption | Defines separation of concerns and runtime-plane concepts. |
| Traceability and provenance | Defines Traceability and Evidence as core conceptual elements. |
| Auditability and defensibility | Treats evidence as an architectural concern rather than a test by-product. |
| Comparability across systems and time | Preserves conceptual meaning independently from implementation technology. |
| Technology neutrality | Avoids binding conceptual architecture to specific products, tools, languages, middleware, or deployment platforms. |
| Long-term governance of meaning | Defines governance of meaning as a conceptual architecture principle. |
