The Open Group OGEA-101 TOGAF Enterprise Architecture Part 1 Exam Practice Test
Question 1
Which of the following is a responsibility of an Architecture Board?
Answer : D
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.
Question 2
Exhibit
Consider the illustration showing an architecture development cycle Which description matches the phase of the ADM labeled as item 2?
Answer : D
Based on the illustration, the phase of the ADM labeled as item 2 is the Implementation Governance phase. This phase provides architectural oversight for the implementation. It ensures that the implementation project conforms to the architecture. It also provides a framework for monitoring and managing the implementation.
The Implementation Governance phase involves the following activities:
Finalizing the Architecture Roadmap and the supporting Implementation and Migration Plan
Assigning an Architecture Board to oversee the implementation
Establishing Architecture Contracts with the implementation partners
Reviewing and approving the implementation project plans and deliverables
Performing Architecture Compliance reviews to ensure alignment with the architecture
Performing Architecture Audit reviews to ensure quality and performance of the architecture
Resolving any architecture issues or change requests that arise during the implementation
Maintaining the architecture lifecycle and ensuring its continuity
The Implementation Governance phase is essential for ensuring that the architecture is realized as intended and that it delivers the expected business value and outcomes.
Question 3
Which of the following best summarizes the purpose of Enterprise Architecture?
Answer : B
EA applies architecture principles and practices to analyze, design, plan, and implement enterprise analysis that supports digital transformation, IT growth, and the modernization of IT2. EA also helps organizations improve the efficiency, timeliness, and reliability of business information, as well as the alignment, agility, and adaptability of the architecture to the changing needs and requirements3. Therefore, the best summary of the purpose of EA is to guide effective change.
Question 4
Consider the following ADM phases objectives.
Objective
1- Determine whether an incremental approach is required, and if so identify Transition Architectures that will deliver continuous business value
2- Generate the initial complete version of the Architecture Roadmap, based upon the gap analysis and candidate Architecture Roadmap components from Phases B, C, and D
3- Finalize the Architecture Roadmap and the supporting Implementation and Migration Plan
4- Ensure that the business value and cost of work packages and Transition Architectures is understood by key stakeholders
Which phase does each objective match?
Answer : B
According to the TOGAF standard, the objectives of each ADM phase are as follows1:
* Phase E: Opportunities and Solutions
o Determine whether an incremental approach is required, and if so identify Transition Architectures that will deliver continuous business value
o Identify and group major work packages within the Architecture Roadmap
o Identify and group major implementation projects to realize the Architecture Roadmap
o Identify dependencies between increments and projects
o Estimate cost, benefit, and risk at a high level for each increment and project
o Conduct initial prioritization and sequencing of the Architecture Roadmap and projects
* Phase F: Migration Planning
o Generate the initial complete version of the Architecture Roadmap, based upon the gap analysis and candidate Architecture Roadmap components from Phases B, C, and D
o Confirm the Transition Architectures with relevant stakeholders
o Create the Implementation and Migration Plan, including Transition Architectures, work packages, projects, and other activities
o Confirm and agree the Architecture Roadmap and Implementation and Migration Plan with relevant stakeholders
* Phase G: Implementation Governance
o Finalize the Architecture Roadmap and the supporting Implementation and Migration Plan
o Ensure conformance with the Target Architecture by implementation projects
o Perform appropriate Architecture Governance functions for the solution and any implementation-driven architecture Change Requests
o Ensure that the architecture lifecycle is maintained
o Ensure that the Architecture Governance Framework is executed
* Phase H: Architecture Change Management
o Ensure that the business value and cost of work packages and Transition Architectures is understood by key stakeholders
o Manage risks and issues related to the Architecture Roadmap and Implementation and Migration Plan
o Monitor the implementation projects and Transition Architectures
o Manage changes to the architecture baseline
o Manage changes to the Architecture Capability
Therefore, the correct matching of the objectives and the phases is:
* 1G: Determine whether an incremental approach is required, and if so identify Transition Architectures that will deliver continuous business value
* 2E: Generate the initial complete version of the Architecture Roadmap, based upon the gap analysis and candidate Architecture Roadmap components from Phases B, C, and D
* 3F: Finalize the Architecture Roadmap and the supporting Implementation and Migration Plan
* 4F: Ensure that the business value and cost of work packages and Transition Architectures is understood by key stakeholders
Question 5
What is the purpose of the Preliminary Phase?
Answer : A
An Enterprise Architecture Capability is the ability of the organization to perform effective and efficient architecture work, including the definition, governance, and management of its architectures2. The Preliminary Phase involves the following activities1:
* Reviewing the organizational context, scope, and drivers for conducting Enterprise Architecture
* Establishing the Architecture Capability desired by the organization, including the maturity level, roles, responsibilities, processes, and tools
* Defining and establishing the Organizational Model for Enterprise Architecture, which describes how the architecture function is organized and integrated within the enterprise
* Defining and establishing the Architecture Governance framework, which provides the mechanisms for ensuring the quality, consistency, and compliance of the architecture work
* Selecting and implementing the tools that support the Architecture Capability, such as repositories, modeling tools, and communication tools
* Defining the Architecture Principles that will guide and constrain the architecture work, based on the business principles, goals, and drivers of the organization
* Defining the Organization-Specific Architecture Framework, which is an adaptation of the generic TOGAF ADM to suit the specific requirements, standards, and practices of the organization
The Preliminary Phase is essential for preparing the organization for the successful development and implementation of its architectures, as well as for ensuring the alignment of the architecture work with the business strategy and objectives1.
Question 6
Which one of the following classes of information within the Architecture Repository would typically contain a list of the applications in use within the enterprise?
Answer : C
The Architecture Landscape is a class of information within the Architecture Repository that shows an architectural view of the building blocks that are in use within the organization today (the Baseline Architecture), as well as those that are planned for the future (the Target Architecture). The Architecture Landscape typically contains a list of the applications in use within the enterprise, along with their relationships and dependencies, as well as other relevant architectural information. The Architecture Landscape helps to identify opportunities for re-use, consolidation, or retirement of existing applications, as well as gaps or overlaps in the current or future architecture.
