OGEA-101 Leak Questions

 In the ADM documents which are under development and have not undergone any formal review and approval process are called “draft”. This indicates that they are subject to change and refinement as the architecture development progresses. Reference: The TOGAF® Standard | The Open Group Website, Section 4.2.5 Architecture Deliverables.

One of the key responsibilities of an Architecture Board within the context of TOGAF is to achieve consistency between sub-architectures. This board is typically responsible for overseeing the development and maintenance of the enterprise architecture, ensuring that it aligns with the organization's overall strategy and objectives. They play a critical role in ensuring that all sub-architectures (like Business Architecture, Data Architecture, Application Architecture, and Technology Architecture) work together cohesively and support the overall enterprise architecture vision and strategy.

When scoping an architecture in TOGAF, three key axes (dimensions) are used to frame the extent of the architecture work. The first is time period (how far into the future or over what timeframe to plan). The second is depth—how detailed or granular the architecture models will be (e.g., high level, mid level, very detailed). The third is breadth, which refers to which parts (domains, business units, functions) of the enterprise will be included, and which architecture domains (business, data, application, technology) will be in scope. This triple‐dimension model helps architects, stakeholders, and governance bodies understand how wide, deep, and forward‑looking the architecture effort will be. Thus “breadth, architecture domains” is the correct third dimension.

The purpose of the Preliminary Phase is to architect an Enterprise Architecture Capability that meets the needs and expectations of the enterprise’s stakeholders and supports and enables subsequent phases of architecture development and transition. This phase involves defining the scope, principles, framework, and governance for the Enterprise Architecture Capability.
