Core Concepts Flashcards
What forms/is the core of TOGAF
The ADM
What is Requirements Management in ADM
Requirements Management examines the process of managing architecture requirements
throughout the ADM.
The Preliminary Phase
preparation and initiation activities required to create an Architecture Capability, including the customization
of the TOGAF framework, and the definition of
Architecture Principles.
Phase A
Architecture Vision describes the initial
phase of an Architecture Development Cycle. It
includes information about defining the scope,
identifying the stakeholders, creating the Architecture
Vision, and obtaining approvals.
Phase B
Phase B: Business Architecture describes the
development of a Business Architecture to support an
agreed Architecture Vision
Phase C
Phase C: Information Systems Architectures
describes the development of Information Systems
Architectures for an architecture project, including
the development of Data and Application
Architectures
Phase D
Phase D: Technology Architecture describes the development of the Technology Architecture
for an architecture project.
Phase E
Phase E: Opportunities and Solutions describes the process of identifying major
implementation projects and grouping them into work packages that deliver the Target
Architecture defined in the previous phases.
Phase F
Phase F: Migration Planning describes the development of a detailed Implementation and
Migration Plan that addresses how to move from the Baseline to the Target Architecture.
Phase G
Phase G: Implementation Governance provides an architectural oversight of the
implementation
Phase H
Phase H: Architecture Change Management establishes procedures for managing change to
the new architecture
What is a deliverable
A deliverable is a work product that is contractually specified and in turn formally
reviewed, agreed, and signed off by the stakeholders
What is an Artefact
An artifact is an architectural work product that describes an aspect of the architecture
Classification of Artefacts
catalogs (lists of things),
matrices (showing relationships between things),
and diagrams (pictures of things).
An architectural deliverable may contain many artifacts and artifacts will form the content of the
Architecture Repository.
What is a Building Block
A building block represents a (potentially re-usable) component of business, IT, or architectural capability that can be combined with other building blocks to deliver architectures and solutions
