What are EA components and how do they relate to the framework?

EA components are those 'plug-and-play' changeable resources that provide capabilities at each level of the framework. While an EA framework provides an overall structure for modeling the enterprise’s business and technology operating environment, EA components are the working elements of the framework at each level. In other words, EA components are building blocks that create discrete parts of the overall IT operational capability. EA artifacts describe EA components.
