TOGAF 20

Which of the following statements is correct in the context of ADM and Architecture Repository relationship?

In executing the ADM, the architect is only developing a snapshot of the enterprise at particular points in time, and populating the organization’s own Architecture Repository is outside the scope of ADM

At relevant places throughout the ADM, there are reminders to consider which architecture assets from the Architecture Repository the architect should use

Architecture Repository is only accessed in the Requirement Management phase

The practical implementation of the Enterprise Continuum will typically take the form of an Architecture Repository that includes reference architectures, models, and patterns mandated in TOGAF

The first execution of the ADM is simplified because of the re-use potential of the standard architecture assets available for re-use in TOGAF Architecture Repository

Within the Taxonomy of Architecture Viewpoints which of the following is a Core Diagram of the Architecture Vision?

Phase F

Phase E

The objectives for Phase F: Migration Planning does not include which of the following:

To confirm the Transition Architectures defined in Phase E

To generate and gain consensus on an outline Implementation and Migration Strategy

To finalise the Architecture Vision and Architecture Definition Document

To prioritize all work packages, projects and building blocks

Which of the following is not a correct statement about the stakeholder concern?

Concerns determine the acceptability of the system

Concerns are represented in the architecture by these requirements

Each stakeholder typically has interests in, or concerns relative to, that system

The terms “concern” and “requirement” are synonymous

Concerns are the root of the process of decomposition into requirements

To show the evolution of deliverables

To enable use with the Architecture Content Framework

To support change management

To permit adaptation as required

Which of the following is NOT a correct reason for limiting the scope of the Architecture Activity?

To ensure an appropriate demarcation between the architecture effort and other, related activities (system design, system engineering, system development)

The organizational authority of the team producing the architecture

The objectives and stakeholder concerns to be addressed within the architecture You answered

The inflexibility of the baseline IT technical architecture

The realities of resource and time constraints often mean there is not enough time, funding, or resources to build a top-down, all-inclusive architecture description encompassing all four architecture domains

Residual Level of Risk

Strategic Level of Risk

Which of the following best describes the Capability-Based Planning technique?

A technique used to develop general rules and guidelines for the architecture being developed

A technique used for business planning that focuses on business outcomes

A technique used to plan the degree to which information and services are to be shared

A technique used to validate an architecture

What first-cut, high-level description does Architecture Vision provide?

Strategic Architectures, Segment Architectures and Capability Architectures

Enterprise Architectures, Solution Architectures and Transition Architectures

Architecture Definition, Architecture Specification and Architecture Roadmap

Baseline Architectures, Target Architectures and Gap Analysis

Business Architectures, Data Architectures, Application Architectures and Technology Architectures

What is the definition of Architecture in the context of TOGAF

Architecture is the use of abstractions and models to simplify and communicate complex structures and processes to improve understanding and forecasting

A rigorous description of the structure of an enterprise, which comprises enterprise components (business entities), the externally visible properties of those components, and the relationships (e.g. the behavior) between them

The fundamental organization of a system, embodied in its components, their relationships to each other and the environment, and the principles governing its design and evolution

A formal description of a system, or a detailed plan of the system at a component level to guide its implementation or the structure of components, their inter-relationships, and the principles and guidelines governing their design and evolution over time

An architecture is the most important, pervasive, top-level, strategic inventions, decisions, and their associated rationales about the overall structure (i.e., essential elements and their relationships) and associated characteristics and behavior

Which of the following is not a Core Metamodel Entity?

Platform Service

Data Entity

Organisation

Function

Standards

Which of the following is NOT an activity in Phase E?

Perform initial implementation planning

Decide on approach — Make versus buy versus re-use

Identify the major implementation projects

Group projects into Transition Architectures

Perform a cost/benefit analysis and a risk assessment

Which of the following is not the source of a business domain gap in context of TOGAF?

People gaps

Tools gaps

Data relationship gaps

Process gaps

Information gaps

Which one of the following is not a characteristic of a building block?

Building blocks can be combined with other building blocks to deliver architectures and solutions

Building blocks can consist just of name or an outline description

Building blocks can be defined at various levels of detail

Building blocks are potentially reusable component of business, IT or architectural capability

Building blocks cannot be decomposed into smaller supporting building blocks

Which of the following relationship between view, viewpoint, stakeholder and architecture is correct?

One of more viewpoint can be used to cover a concern

Stakeholder concern is address by one or more viewpoints

Viewpoint library contains multiple views

An architecture consists of multiple viewpoints

A Viewpoint conforms to a view
