TOGAF standard. Architecture domains
There are four architecture domains:
The Business Architecture – defines the business strategy, governance,
organization, and key business processes;
The Data Architecture - describes the structure of an organization's logical
and physical data assets and includes description of data management
resources;
The Application Architecture - provides a blueprint for the individual
applications to be deployed and describes their interactions and
relationships;
The Technology Architecture - describes the logical software and hardware
capabilities.

TOGAF standard. ADM method
The latest version of TOGAF provide the ADM with nine phases, which are:
Preliminary Phase; Technology Implementation
Architecture Vision; Architecture; Governance;
Business Architecture; Opportunities & Architecture Change
Solutions; Management.
Information Systems
Architectures; Migration Planning;
4
Architecture Content Framework
Includes 3 baseline categories:
a deliverable - a work product that is contractually specified and formally
reviewed, agreed, and signed off by the stakeholders (might be represented
by the output of project);
an artifact - an architectural work product that describes an aspect of the
architecture (might be represented by requirements catalog, business
interaction matrix, a use-case diagram and others);
a building block - a component of enterprise capability that can be combined
with other building blocks to deliver architectures and solutions (represent
components that will be used to implement the required capability).
5
Enterprise Continuum
Explains within TOGAF how generic solutions can be leveraged and specialized
in order to support the requirements of an individual organization.
6
Architecture repository
Is used to store different classes of architectural output at different levels of
abstraction.

Using the TOGAF Standard with Other
Frameworks
Examples of standards, which can be integrated with TOGAF:
ITIL®;
CMMI®;
COBIT®;
PRINCE2®;
PMBOK®;
MSP®.

Definitions to know
TOGAF - the Open Group Architecture Framework.
ADM - Architecture Development Method.
A deliverable - a work product that is contractually specified and formally reviewed, agreed, and
signed off by the stakeholders.
An artifact - an architectural work product that describes an aspect of the architecture.
A building block - a component of enterprise capability that can be combined with other building
blocks to deliver architectures and solutions.
Architecture Content Framework informs on what content to produce at what phase of the ADM
cycle, and also gives a model to structure those Architecture Deliverables
Enterprise Continuum is as a view of the repository of all the architecture assets.
Architecture repository allows an enterprise to distinguish between different types of architectural
assets that exist at different levels of abstraction in the organization.
