What is TOGAF?
TOGAF is an Architecture Framework which has been developed

by the Open Group “to provide the methods and tools for
assisting in the acceptance, production, use and maintenance of an
Enterprise Architecture”.
It is based on an iterative process model supported by best
practices and a re-usable set of existing architecture assets.
Who is The Open Group?
The Open Group is a vendor- and technology-neutral consortium,

whose vision of Boundary less Information Flow will enable
access to integrated information within and between enterprises
based on open standards and global interoperability
TOGAF EA
TOGAF is based on four interrelated areas of specialization called architecture domains
Business architecture: Describes the processes the business uses to meet its goals
Application architecture: Describes how specific applications are designed and how they
interact with each other
Data architecture: Describes how the enterprise data stores are organized and accessed
Technical architecture: Describes the hardware and software infrastructure that supports
applications and their interactions
TOGAF Structure
Architecture Development
Method (ADM)
Provides a tested and repeatable process for developing architectures
ADM includes
Establishing an architecture framework Developing architecture content
Transitioning Governing the realization of architectures Carried out within an
iterative cycle
Continuous architecture definition and realization that allows organizations to
transform their enterprises in a controlled manner in response to business goals and
opportunities.
The ADM: Phase-by-Phase
A step by step : Approach
A Method : For developing EA
The Core : Of the TOGAF
Helps Establish : An EA Framework

ADM Iteration
ADM is an Iterative Process
Over : The whole Process
Between : Phases
Within : Phases
New Iteration : New Decisions

ADM Iteration
Phase A : Architecture Vision describes the initial phase of an architecture development cycle. It includes
information about defining the scope, identifying the stakeholders, creating the Architecture Vision, and obtaining
approvals.
Phase B : Business Architecture describes the development of a Business Architecture to support an agreed
Architecture Vision.
Phase C : Information Systems Architectures describes the development of Information Systems Architectures
for an architecture project, including the development of Data and Application Architectures.
Phase D : Technology Architecture describes the development of the Technology Architecture for an architecture
project.
ADM Iteration (contd.)
Phase E : Opportunities & Solutions conducts initial implementation planning and the identification of
delivery vehicles for the architecture defined in the previous phases. Phase F : Migration Planning addresses
the formulation of a set of detailed sequence of transition architectures with a supporting Implementation and
Migration Plan.
Phase G : Implementation Governance provides an architectural oversight of the implementation.
Phase H : Architecture Change Management establishes procedures for managing change to the new
architecture.
Requirements Management examines the process of managing architecture requirements throughout the
ADM.
Preliminary Phase
Goals:
Prepare the organization for Enterprise Architecture Project
• Define and scope the Enterprise
• Define the Architecture Principles
• Setup Architecture Repository and team
The Preliminary Phase describes the preparation and initiation activities required to prepare to meet the business
directive for a new enterprise architecture, including the definition of an Organization-Specific Architecture
framework and the definition of principles.
Phase B: Business Architecture
Data Architecture - Inputs
• Organizational Model for Enterprise Architecture
• Tailored Architecture Framework

• Architecture Repository
• Draft Architecture Definition Document
• Draft Architecture Requirements Specification
• Business Architecture components of an Architecture Roadmap
Data Architecture - Steps
• Select Reference Models, Viewpoints, and Tools
• Develop Baseline Data Architecture Description
• Develop Target Data Architecture Description
• Perform Gap Analysis
• Define Roadmap Components
• Resolve Impacts Across the Architecture Landscape
• Conduct Formal Stakeholder Review
• Finalize the Data Architecture
• Create Architecture Definition Document
Data Architecture - Outputs
• Architecture Principals
• Architecture Requirement specification
• Architecture Roadmap
• Business Principles and Goals
• Statement of Architecture Work
building blocks
Architecture Capability Framework
Architecture Content Framework
Enterprise Continuum
TOGAF views the world of enterprise architecture as a continuum of architectures,
ranging from highly generic to highly specific.
A view of the Architecture Repository that provides methods for classifying
architecture and solution artifacts as they evolve from generic Foundation
Architectures to Organization-Specific Architectures Explains how generic
solutions can be leveraged and specialized in order to support the requirements of
an individual organization
Stakeholders, Views, Viewpoints
Viewpoint is a perspective (where you are looking from) and generally specific to a
stakeholder group view is what you see and is created to ensure that particular
stakeholders can see an architecture from a point of view which matches their
concerns
Views and Viewpoints
Limitations
 The TOGAF specification is also flexible with respect to the phases.

 TOGAF allows phases to be done incompletely, skipped, combined,
reordered, or reshaped to fit the needs of the situation
 Lacks templates for some artifacts.
