RoyRoebuck suggest to consider using an open-schema metadata modeling and repository tool, that is also open-source and free. One such tool is
onecmdb.

It is designed as an object-oriented configuration management tool for IT service management in compliance with ITIL3. It comes with data models for asset management and configuration item management, and has a content management module for documentation outside the metamodel
and its models.

There is nothing new under the sun, EA is also not as new as we thought. I am fortunate to recognize the Roy Roebuck EA's work before EA is known.
