The mere unmanageable amount of techniques for conceptual modeling of information systems poses a challenge both for users of existing techniques and for developers of new techniques. However, interpreting the emergence of new conceptual modeling techniques as a result of changing architectural paradigms for information systems seems to be inappropriate. Through inspection of prevalent architectural paradigms, we show that the derivation of requirements for respective modeling techniques has been neglected frequently and an appropriate connection between architectural paradigms and conceptual modeling techniques is lacking. Motivated by these findings we argue that primarily pragmatic considerations can and should guide the development of new conceptual modeling techniques.
