OGEA-101 Exam Dumps : TOGAF Enterprise Architecture Part 1 Exam (English)

In TOGAF’s ADM, the Request for Architecture Work is the deliverable issued by the sponsoring organization (or stakeholder) to formally request that the architecture team perform a full architecture development cycle. That corresponds to your “deliverable 3.” Then, the architecture team responds by producing a Statement of Architecture Work (in Phase A), which defines the scope, constraints, approach, and highlevel tasks for the architecture development. That is your “deliverable 4” (the scope and approach). Thus deliverable 3 is the Request for Architecture Work, and deliverable 4 is generated in Phase A. The Request triggers the cycle; the Statement of Architecture Work (in Phase A) lays down how the architecture work will proceed, including scoping and approach.

Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation

Architecture Partitioning is an ADM technique in TOGAF that addresses how large and complex architectures can be broken down into manageable parts. The intent is to make architecture development more effective, especially in large enterprises with multiple teams, stakeholders, and domains.

Key points from TOGAF:

TOGAF does not mandate a partitioning model. It provides guidelines and techniques to help architects determine whether and how to partition. This means statement 1 is incorrect.

Statement 2: Correct. Architectures may be partitioned to allow different teams to work on different elements in parallel (e.g., by domain, line of business, geographic scope). Partitioning provides clear ownership and reduces overlap or conflict.

Statement 3: Correct. Partitions can be structured in a way that supports architecture re-use, since well-defined partitions (e.g., capability-based or domain-based) enable consistent re-use of architecture building blocks across projects.

Correct Mapping

Statement 1: Incorrect (partitioning is not required by ADM).

Statement 2: Correct.

Statement 3: Correct.

Correct answer is D (2 and 3).

Why the other options are incorrect

A (1, 2 and 3): Incorrect because TOGAF does not require partitioning.

B (1 and 3): Incorrect because 1 is not correct.

C (1 and 2): Incorrect because 1 is not correct.

The purpose of the Gap Analysis technique is similar to the previous question, but with a focus on the Target Architecture. The technique helps to identify the items that are not included or specified in the Target Architecture, such as capabilities, services, components, standards, or technologies. These items may be essential for achieving the vision and goals of the enterprise, or for addressing the stakeholder concerns and requirements. By identifying the items omitted from the Target Architecture, the technique helps to ensure that the architecture is comprehensive, feasible, and realistic.
