QuestionQ54

The TOGAF Standard, Version 9.2

You are acting as the Lead Architect.

You have been asked to identify the architecture viewpoints most appropriate for this situation.

Based on TOGAF 9, which of the following is the best answer?

  • A In the early iterations of the Architecture Definition: "¢ Describe the Baseline Business Architecture with a Baseline Business Process catalog "¢ Describe the Baseline Application Architecture with a Technology Portfolio catalog "¢ Describe the Baseline Data Architecture with a Data diagram In the later iterations of the Architecture Definition: "¢ Describe the Target Business Architecture with an Actor/Process/Data catalog "¢ Describe the Target Application Architecture with a System/Technology matrix "¢ Describe the Target Data Architecture with a Data Dissemination diagram
  • B In the early iterations of the Architecture Definition: "¢ Describe the Target Business Architecture with a Business Service/Function catalog and a Business Interaction matrix "¢ Describe the key business objects with Product Lifecycle diagrams "¢ Describe the Target Application Architecture with Application Communication diagrams and an Application Interaction matrix "¢ Describe the Target Data Architecture with a Data Entity/Business Function matrix and a System/Data matrix In the later iterations of the Architecture Definition: "¢ Describe the Baseline Business Architecture with a Business Service/Function catalog and a Business Interaction matrix "¢ Describe the Baseline Application Architecture with a System/Organization matrix and a System/Function matrix "¢ Describe the Baseline Data Architecture with a Data Entity/Data Component catalog
  • C In the early iterations of the Architecture Definition: "¢ Describe the Target Business Architecture with a Business Service/Function catalog and an Organization/Actor catalog "¢ Describe the key business objects with Data Lifecycle diagrams "¢ Describe the Target Application Architecture with Application Communication diagrams and an Application Interaction matrix "¢ Describe the Target Data Architecture with a System/Data matrix In the later iterations of the Architecture Definition: "¢ Describe the Baseline Business Architecture with a Business Service/Function catalog and a Business Interaction matrix "¢ Describe the Baseline Application Architecture with an Application and User Location diagram and a System/Function matrix "¢ Describe the Baseline Data Architecture with a Data Entity/Data Component catalog
  • D In the early iterations of the Architecture Definition: "¢ Describe the Baseline Business Architecture with an Organization/Actor catalog "¢ Describe the Baseline Application Architecture with a System/Function matrix "¢ Describe the Baseline Data Architecture using a Data Entity/Data Component catalog In the later iterations of the Architecture Definition: "¢ Describe the Target Business Architecture with en Organization/Actor catalog "¢ Describe the Target Application Architecture using Application Communication diagrams end an Application Interaction matrix "¢ Describe the Target Data Architecture with a System/Data matrix
Explanation

A baseline-first approach is appropriate when the current state is poorly documented and must be understood before defining change. An Organization/Actor catalog identifies the people involved; a System/Function matrix maps existing applications to the business processes or functions they support; and a Data Entity/Data Component catalog documents current data. The target requires Application Communication diagrams and an Application Interaction matrix to define required integrations, while a System/Data matrix identifies the data that applications must share.
