EA Deployment Playbook: A Guide for Sparx Enterprise Architect Power-Users and Small Teams

By Max Hinkley

The EA Deployment Playbook is a practical guide to getting Enterprise Architect out of "solo sandbox" mode and into reliable, shared use without an army of admins.

Instead of generic UML advice, this book focuses on the concrete deployment decisions that matter when you actually have work to do: which editions and licenses to buy, when file-based repositories are good enough, when to move to DBMS, and how to keep those moves sane and reversible. You get simple, repeatable recipes for installing EA, setting up .qea/.qeax files, creating DBMS repositories, and migrating from file to server without losing history or your weekend.

Beyond the basics, later chapters dig into security, users, permissions, AI assistant configuration, repository structure, and Pro Cloud Server for HTTP(S) access, floating licenses, RAS, and integrations with tools like Jira and Jama. Throughout, real-world patterns and case-style scenarios show how solos, mini teams, and small teams can grow their EA deployments step by step-starting from "just me and a file" and ending with a clean, shared environment that the rest of the organization can trust.
