E - The TOGAF Foundation Architecture is an architecture of generic services and functions that provides a foundation on which more specific architectures and architectural components can be built. This Foundation Architecture is embodied within the Technical Reference Model (TRM), which provides a model and taxonomy of generic platform services.

Business rules, job descriptions C. Implementation and Migration Plan D. Stakeholder Map E. TOGAF Technical Reference Model

E - The TOGAF TRM should be considered in the development of the Technology Architecture in Phase D.

Which architecture domain describes logical software and hardware capabilities? A. Application Architecture B. Business Architecture C. Data Architecture D. Information Systems Architecture E. Technology Architecture

E - The Technology Architecture includes the software and hardware capabilities that are required to support the deployment of business, data, and application services. This includes IT infrastructure, middleware, networks, communications, processing, and standards

Why is Architecture Governance beneficial? A. It links IT processes, resources, and information to organizational strategies and objectives. B. It integrates and institutionalizes IT best practices. C. It enables the organization to take full advantage of its information, infrastructure, and hardware/software assets. D. It protects the underlying digital assets of the organization. E.

E - These are all possible consequences of NOT establishing an Architecture Board.

According to TOGAF, which of the following best describes why an Architecture Board should be established? A. To conduct performance appraisals on the enterprise architecture team B. To conduct source code design reviews C. To ensure that new systems are introduced in a managed change process D. To facilitate the adoption of advanced technologies E. To oversee the implementation of the governance strategy

E. A key element in a successful architecture governance strategy is a cross-organization Architecture Board to oversee the implementation of the strategy.

Which one of the following represents the detailed construction of the architectures defined in the Architecture Continuum? A. Architecture Building Blocks B. Conceptual Models C. Foundation Architectures D. Reference Models E. Solution Building Blocks

E. The Solutions Continuum defines what is available inthe organizational environment as re-usable Solution Building Blocks (SBBs).

An organization has bought a large enterprise application. As a result, which of the following could be included in the organization's Solutions Continuum? A. A reference implementation of the Foundation Architecture B. A reference implementation of the Technical Reference Model for the organization C. Architecture Building Blocks for the organizations' Industry-Specific Architecture D. Detailed pricing information about the purchased products E. Product information for purchased products

E. The Solutions Continuum is a population of the architecture with reference building blocks - either purchased products or built components - that represent a solution to the enterprise's business need expressed at that level.
