TOGAF10 Core concepts Flashcards
The fundamental concepts or properties of a system in its environment embodied in its elements, relationships, and in the principles of its design and evolution.
Architecture (ISO/IEC/IEEE 420010:2011
The structure of components, their inter-relationships, and the principles and guidelines governing their design and evolution over time.
TOGAF Second meaning of Architecture definition
Business Architecture
defines the business strategy, governance, organization, and key business processes
Data Architecture
describes the structure of an organization’s logical and physical data assets and data management resources
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
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. This includes digital services, Internet of Things (IoT), social media infrastructure, cloud services, IT infrastructure, middleware, networks, communications, processing, standards, etc.
The Preliminary Phase
describes the preparation and initiation activities required to create an Architecture Capability including customization of the TOGAF framework and definition of Architecture Principles
Phase A: Architecture Vision
describes the initial phase of an architecture development cycle
It includes information about defining the scope of the architecture development initiative, identifying the stakeholders, creating the Architecture Vision, and obtaining approval to proceed with the architecture development.
Phase B: Business Architecture
describes the development of a Business Architecture to support the agreed Architecture Vision
Phase C: Information Systems Architectures
describes the development of Information Systems Architectures to support the agreed Architecture Vision
Phase D: Technology Architecture
describes the development of the Technology Architecture to support the agreed Architecture Vision
Phase E: Opportunities & Solutions
conducts initial implementation planning and the identification of delivery vehicles for the architecture defined in the previous phases
Phase F: Migration Planning
addresses how to move from the Baseline to the Target Architectures by finalizing a detailed Implementation and Migration Plan
Phase G: Implementation Governance
provides an architectural oversight of the implementation
Phase H: Architecture Change Management
establishes procedures for managing change to the new architecture
