Business model pattern

Business model patterns are reusable business model architectural components, which can be used in generating a new business model. In the process of new business model generation, the business model innovator can use one or more of these patterns to creating a new business model. Each of these patterns has similarities in characteristics, business model building blocks arrangements and behaviors. Alexander Osterwalder call these similarities the "business model pattern".

Given the goal of reducing costs of the complex software development, it is necessary to use ready-made unified solutions. The pattern facilitates communication between developers via referring to well-known constructions and reduces the number of errors.
