Built-in Dashboards

DesignFoundry ships seven built-in dashboards out of the box. They’re not editable in the Dashboard Designer — they live at dedicated routes under /dashboards/<slug> and are tuned for specific stakeholder questions. You can copy their query patterns into a custom dashboard if you want to extend them.

Application Landscape

A map of all applications and their interdependencies. Objects are positioned by ArchiMate layer (Business → Application → Technology); relationships render as labeled arrows.

Best for: Understanding the application ecosystem and identifying circular dependencies.

Capability Map

A hierarchical tree of all capability objects and their realization chains — which capabilities are supported by which applications.

Best for: Gap analysis, investment prioritization, and portfolio planning.

Technology Radar

All technology services, grouped by category (compute, storage, network, etc.) with a count of applications using each.

Best for: Infrastructure planning, vendor management, and risk assessment.

Object Distribution

A counts-and-percentages summary across all object types — useful for sizing a project at a glance.

Best for: Onboarding to a new project, sizing reviews, or detecting object-type imbalance.

Governance Health

Coverage metrics for ownership, status, lifecycle, and required-extension fields. Highlights objects that are missing key metadata.

Best for: Data-quality reviews, governance audits, ownership accountability.

Financial Summary

Cost rollups across applications and capabilities, drawing from the Financial extension. Renders both a top-line total and a category breakdown.

Best for: TBM-style reporting, cost optimization, license-spend planning.

Custom Query

Lets you save an ad-hoc query (filters + columns + grouping) as a quick-access dashboard. Functionally a single-component dashboard with a Data Table.

Best for: Recurring questions that don’t need a full multi-component dashboard.
