In this paper we show how to utilize enterprise architectures to model relations between information sources of an enterprise. With our approach the enterprise architecture models are not passive entities anymore but can be operationalized to identify dependencies between the various models and to integrate information sources. It thus is the basis for agile enterprises. We show that the elements of an enterprise architecture and the referenced data can take the role of both context and content depending on the objectives of their use. We present two independent approaches for modeling an enterprise ontology.
