What is the TOGAF Technical Reference Model (TRM) primarily used for?
Answer: Providing a fundamental architecture for information systems as a foundation for specific architectures
The TOGAF TRM provides a fundamental architecture upon which more specific architectures can be based, defining a taxonomy of platform services.
What is the Integrated Information Infrastructure Reference Model (III-RM) in TOGAF?
Answer: A reference model supporting the vision of Boundaryless Information Flow across the enterprise
The III-RM supports the vision of Boundaryless Information Flow by defining the components needed for integrated information infrastructure.
In the Architecture Repository, what distinguishes an 'Architecture Metamodel' from other components?
Answer: It defines the organizationally tailored application of TOGAF and the relationships between architecture elements
The Architecture Metamodel documents the specific application of an architecture framework, including entity types, relationships, and the tailored metamodel for the organization.
What is a 'Building Block' in TOGAF, and what two types exist?
Answer: A packaged component of business, IT, or architectural capability; types are ABB and SBB
A Building Block is a reusable component of business, IT, or architectural capability; Architecture Building Blocks (ABBs) are capability-focused and Solution Building Blocks (SBBs) are product/vendor specific.
Which part of the TOGAF Architecture Repository captures the organization's architecture policies and standards?
Answer: Standards Library
The Standards Library captures the standards with which new architectures must comply, including industry standards, products, and services from selected vendors.
What is the purpose of the 'Architecture Capability' component in the Architecture Repository?
Answer: To define the parameters, structures, and processes that support governance of the Architecture Repository
The Architecture Capability component defines the structures, processes, roles, skills, and responsibilities required to operate the architecture function within the organization.
