TOGAF TOGAF Architecture Repository 1 — Questions and Answers
Question 1: What are the six components of the TOGAF Architecture Repository?
- Vision, Strategy, Planning, Execution, Review, Close
- Architecture Metamodel, Architecture Capability, Architecture Landscape, Standards Library, Reference Library, Governance Log (Correct answer)
- Domain, Application, Data, Technology, Security, Integration
- Principles, Stakeholders, Drivers, Goals, Objectives, Metrics
Correct answer: Architecture Metamodel, Architecture Capability, Architecture Landscape, Standards Library, Reference Library, Governance Log
The TOGAF Architecture Repository contains six components: Architecture Metamodel, Architecture Capability, Architecture Landscape, Standards Library, Reference Library, and Governance Log.
Question 2: What does the 'Architecture Landscape' component of the Architecture Repository represent?
- A geographic map of enterprise locations
- The current state of architecture at strategic, segment, and capability levels (Correct answer)
- A list of all approved technology standards
- A catalog of architecture stakeholders
Correct answer: The current state of architecture at strategic, segment, and capability levels
The Architecture Landscape contains the current state of architectures at strategic, segment, and capability levels of granularity.
Question 3: Which component of the Architecture Repository contains the TOGAF standard itself and other reference models?
- Architecture Metamodel
- Standards Library
- Reference Library (Correct answer)
- Governance Log
Correct answer: Reference Library
The Reference Library provides guidelines, templates, patterns, and reference material from TOGAF and external sources used during architecture development.
Question 4: What is the purpose of the 'Governance Log' in the Architecture Repository?
- To track architecture project budgets
- To record all governance activity including compliance assessments and change requests (Correct answer)
- To store architecture training records
- To manage architecture tool licenses
Correct answer: To record all governance activity including compliance assessments and change requests
The Governance Log records governance activity including compliance requests, dispensations, change requests, and meeting minutes from the Architecture Board.
Question 5: What three levels make up the Architecture Landscape in the Architecture Repository?
- Local, Regional, Global
- Strategic, Segment, Capability (Correct answer)
- Current, Transition, Target
- Foundation, Common, Industry
Correct answer: Strategic, Segment, Capability
The Architecture Landscape is organized at three levels: Strategic (enterprise-wide), Segment (for a portion of the enterprise), and Capability (for a specific solution).
Question 6: Which TOGAF concept describes re-usable architecture building blocks stored in the Architecture Repository?
- Architecture Patterns
- Solution Building Blocks (SBBs) and Architecture Building Blocks (ABBs) (Correct answer)
- Architecture Principles
- Architecture Deliverables
Correct answer: Solution Building Blocks (SBBs) and Architecture Building Blocks (ABBs)
Architecture Building Blocks (ABBs) describe the required capability, while Solution Building Blocks (SBBs) represent specific components used to implement that capability, both stored in the repository.
