The Open Group OGEA-10B Online Questions & Answers

• Question 101:

  Which of the following best describes a purpose of the Gap Analysis technique?

  A. To validate non-functional requirements
  B. To establish quality metrics for the architecture
  C. To determine service levels for the architecture
  D. To identify missing functions
  D. To identify missing functions

  ---

  Explanation

  Gap analysis is a technique that is used to validate an architecture by highlighting the shortfall between the Baseline Architecture and the Target Architecture. One of the purposes of gap analysis is to identify missing functions that are either deliberately omitted, accidentally left out, or not yet defined in the Target Architecture. Missing functions are marked as gaps that need to be filled by developing or procuring the building blocks.

• Question 102:

  Consider the following statement:

  Separate projects may operate their own ADM cycles concurrently, with relationships between the different projects

  What does it illustrate?

  A. Implementation governance
  B. Enterprise Architecture
  C. Iteration
  D. Requirements management
  C. Iteration

  ---

  Explanation

  The statement illustrates iteration and the ADM. Iteration is the technique of repeating a process or a phase with the aim of improving or refining the outcome. Iteration allows for feedback loops and adaptations at any point in the architecture development and transition process. Separate projects may operate their own ADM cycles concurrently, with relationships between the different projects, to address different aspects or levels of the architecture in an iterative manner.

• Question 103:

  Which of the following best describes the use of Architecture Views and Viewpoints in TOGAF?

  A. They define different phases of ADM
  B. They provide project-level task scheduling
  C. They address stakeholder concerns
  D. They replace architecture building blocks
  C. They address stakeholder concerns

  Explanation

• Question 104:

  What are the four architecture domains that the TOGAF standard deals with?

  A. Business, Data, Application, Technology
  B. Capability, Segment, Enterprise, Federated
  C. Baseline, Candidate, Transition, Target
  D. Application, Data, Information, Knowledge
  A. Business, Data, Application, Technology

  ---

  Explanation

  The TOGAF standard divides Enterprise Architecture into four primary architecture domains: business, data, application, and technology. These domains represent different aspects of an enterprise and how they relate to each other. The business domain defines the business strategy, governance, organization, and key business processes. The data domain describes the structure of the logical and physical data assets and data management resources. The application domain provides a blueprint for the individual applications to be deployed, their interactions, and their relationships to the core business processes. The technology domain describes the logical software and hardware capabilities that are required to support the deployment of business, data, and application services. Other domains, such as motivation, security, or governance, may span across these four primary domains.

• Question 105:

  What does the TOGAF ADM recommend for use in developing an Architecture Vision document?

  A. Requirements Management
  B. Architecture Principles
  C. Gap Analysis
  D. Business Scenarios
  D. Business Scenarios

  ---

  Explanation

  Business scenarios are a technique recommended by the TOGAF ADM for use in developing an Architecture Vision document12. Business scenarios are a means of capturing the business requirements and drivers, the processes and actors involved, and the desired outcomes and measures of success34. Business scenarios help to create a common vision and understanding among the stakeholders, and to identify and validate the architecture requirements . Business scenarios also provide a basis for analyzing the impact and value of the proposed architecture.

• Question 106:

  Which TOGAF document is used to formally request the start of an architecture development engagement?

  A. Architecture Requirements Specification
  B. Architecture Vision
  C. Request for Architecture Work
  D. Statement of Architecture Work
  C. Request for Architecture Work

  ---

  Explanation

• Question 107:

  Which of the following best describes the purpose of the Architecture Requirements Specification?

  A. It contains an assessment of the current architecture requirements
  B. It provides a set of statements that outline what a project must do to comply with the architecture
  C. It is sent from the sponsor and triggers the start of an architecture development cycle
  D. It defines the scope and approach to complete an architecture project
  B. It provides a set of statements that outline what a project must do to comply with the architecture

  ---

  Explanation

  The Architecture Requirements Specification is one of the TOGAF deliverables that provides a set of quantitative statements that outline what an implementation project must do in order to comply with the architecture12. It is a companion to the Architecture Definition Document, which provides a qualitative view of the solution and aims to communicate the intent of the architect. The Architecture Requirements Specification provides a quantitative view of the solution, stating measurable criteria that must be met during the implementation of the architecture3. It typically forms a major component of an implementation contract or contract for more detailed Architecture Definition4.

• Question 108:

  What does TOGAF recommend to support change across architecture domains and iterations?

  A. Architecture Board
  B. Architecture Principles
  C. Requirements Management
  D. Enterprise Continuum
  C. Requirements Management

  ---

  Explanation

• Question 109:

  Which of the following is the ability to develop use and sustain the architecture of a particular enterprise using architecture to govern change?

  A. An EA Capability
  B. An EA repository
  C. An EA framework
  D. An Enterprise Architecture
  A. An EA Capability

  ---

  Explanation

  The ability to develop, use, and sustain the architecture of a particular enterprise using architecture to govern change is an EA Capability. An EA Capability is a set of skills, processes, roles, responsibilities, tools, and techniques that enable an enterprise to successfully develop and maintain its Enterprise Architecture and achieve its desired outcomes. An EA Capability is part of an enterprise's overall capability portfolio and should be aligned with its strategy and objectives.

  Which TOGAF artifact documents stakeholder concerns and how they are addressed in the architecture?

  A. Architecture View
  B. Architecture Principles
  C. Architecture Definition Document
  D. Architecture Requirements Specification
  D. Architecture Requirements Specification
