Q

What are the benefits of an Enterprise Architecture?

A
  • More effective strategic decision making by C-Level executives and business leaders
  • More effective and efficient operations due to lower operational costs by sharing capabilities across the organization
  • Better ROI and Procurement since risk for future investment is reduced and information governing procurement is more readily available
  • Balancing conflicting demands by providing a Big Picture view where trade-off analysis will be done and decisions will be made.

Q

Why is the TOGAF Standard suitable for Enterprise Architecture?

A
  • It is suitable for EA since it plays an important role in standardizing and de-risks the architecture process.
  • It is a framework for identifying and implementing change.

Q

What is Data Architecture?

A

Data Architecture describes the structure of an organization’s logical and physical data assets and data management resources.

17
Q

What is Application Architecture?

A

Application Architecture provides a blueprint for the individual applications to be deployed, their interactions, and their relationships to the core business processes of the organization.

18
Q

What is Technology Architecture?

A

Technology Architecture describes the digital architecture and the logical software and hardware infrastructure capabilities and standards that are required to support the deployment of business, data, and applications services.

19
Q

What is Architecture Abstraction?

A

An architectural technique for dividing a problem into smaller areas that are easier to model and therefore easier to solve.

20
Q

What fundamental questions are answered by dividing architecture effort into abstraction levels?

A
  • Why is the architecture needed?
  • What functionality and other requirements need to be met by the architecture?
  • How do we structure the functionality?
  • With what assets shall we implement this structure?
21
Q

What are the Abstraction Levels of Architecture?

A
  • Contextual - Why
  • Conceptual - What
  • Logical - How?
  • Physical - With what?
22
Q

What is Contextual Abstraction?

A
  • It is understanding the environment in which an enterprise operates and the context in which architecture work is planned and executed.
  • It answers why an enterprise undertakes architecture work, what is the scope of the work, and the motivation in terms of goals, drivers, and objectives.
23
Q

What is Conceptual Abstraction?

A

It is decomposing the requirements to understand the problem, and what is needed to address the problem, without unduly focusing on how the architecture will be realized.

24
Q

What is Logical Architecture?

A
  • It is identifying the kinds of business, data, and technology components needed to achieve the services identified in the concepts level.
  • It is about identifying how an architecture can be organized and structured in an implementation-independent fashion.
25
Q

What is Physical Abstraction?

A
  • It is the allocation and implementation of physical components to meet the identified logical components.
  • It is about determining with what physical components the logical-level components can be realized.
26
Q

What is the Enterprise Continuum?

A
  • The Enterprise Continuum sets the broader context for an architect and explains how architecture assets can be leveraged and specialized in order to support the requirements of an individual organization.
  • It gives you guidelines on how to implement the Architecture Repository.
27
Q

Enumerate the parts of an Enterprise Continuum.

A
  • Architecture Continuum
  • Solutions Continuum
28
Q

Define the Architecture Repository.

A
  • The Architecture Repository is the implementation of the Enterprise Continuum.
  • It contains the Architecture Landscape, Solutions Landscape, Reference Library, Standards Library, Architecture Requirements Repository, and the Compliance Assessments in the Governance Repository.
  • These are implemented using an EA tool with a modeling and analytic tool, and a file repository.
29
Q

What is a Content Framework?

A
  • It is a categorization framework to be used to structure the Architecture Descriptions, the work products used to express an architecture, and the collection of models that describe the architecture.
  • It is a list of standards indicating what diagram to use, when to use it and which notation to use.
30
Q

What is an Enterprise Metamodel?

A
  • It defines the types of entities to appear in the models that describes the enterprise, together sith the relationships between these entities.
  • It allows architectural concepts to be captured, stored, filtered, queried, and represented in a way that supports consistency, completeness, and traceability.
  • It describes how you should perform modeling.
  • It provides a good starting point for examining the information the EA Capability requires
31
Q

What are the types of Architectural Work Products?

A
  • Deliverables
    • Contractual outputs of projects like SOW, SLA, etc.
    • contains artifacts
  • Artifacts - Catalogs, Matrices (tabular), Diagrams (graphical)
    • contains ABBs
  • Architecture Building Blocks (ABB)
32
Q

What are the types of Artifacts?

A
  • Catalogs - List of technologies, stakeholders, business functions, etc.
  • Matrices - Tables of things; Tabular representation of relationships between building blocks
  • Diagrams - Graphical representation of relationships between building blocks
33
Q

What are the parts of the Architecture Repository?

A
  • Architecture Metamodel
  • Architecture Landscape
  • Reference Library
  • Standards Library
  • Governance Repository
  • Architecture Landscape
  • Solutions Landscape
  • Architecture Requirements Repository
