Full set: 162 questionsDomain Applying the ADM
The TOGAF framework specifies four distinct purposes that define the scope, planning horizon, and level of detail for an architecture project. These purposes create a hierarchy for classifying architecture work. They are:
1. Strategy: Supports high-level strategic decision-making and business transformation planning.
2. Portfolio: Manages and governs a portfolio of programs and projects to implement strategic change.
3. Project: Defines the scope and approach for a single project to deliver a specific business capability.
4. Solution Delivery: Provides detailed architectural guidance for the implementation and deployment of a specific solution. This classification helps in organizing the Enterprise Architecture Repository and scoping the architecture effort appropriately.
B. Subordinate, and Superior Architecture. These terms describe the hierarchical relationship between different architecture partitions, not the purposes for which they are created.
C. Discreet, and Cohesive. These are qualitative attributes describing the characteristics of an architecture's design, not categories for its purpose or scope.
D. Segment, and End-to-end Target Architecture. A "Segment" architecture is a type of partition, often at the Portfolio or Project level, while "End-to-end Target Architecture" describes a deliverable, not a purpose in this specific list.
