Main Description

Asset-based Development Processes

Asset-based development uses a producer and a consumer model for the manufacturing and usage of assets. An asset goes through a lifecycle of being specified, produced, managed, consumed, and ultimately retired. This lifecycle is illustrated below through a set of workflows that act upon the asset at some given point in its lifecycle. This illustrates a style of working with asset repositories that is a published repository, and is not focused on a configuration management focused style.

Asset Lifecycle

Asset Manufacturing Process

Pulling the asset workflows into the manufacturing context we arrive at the following process.

Asset Usage Process

Pulling the asset workflows into the usage context we arrive at the following process.

The Processes Together

Bringing the processes together, the Asset Usage process feeds candidate assets to Asset Manufacturing. The Asset Manufacturing process feeds assets to Asset Usage.
