Structure of the TOGAF Architecture Development Method (ADM). [1]The Open Group Architecture Framework (TOGAF) is the most used framework for enterprise architecture as of 2020 [2] that provides an approach for designing, planning, implementing, and governing an enterprise information technology architecture. [3]
Enterprise architecture regards the enterprise as a large and complex system or system of systems. [3] To manage the scale and complexity of this system, an architectural framework provides tools and approaches that help architects abstract from the level of detail at which builders work, to bring enterprise design tasks into focus and produce valuable architecture description documentation.
It is based on The Open Group Architecture Framework (TOGAF). The TOGAF Architecture Development Method is a generic method for architecture development, which is designed to deal with most system and organizational requirements. It is usually tailored or extended to suit specific needs.
Like other EA approaches, for example The Open Group Architecture Framework (TOGAF), DoDAF is organized around a shared repository to hold work products. The repository is defined by the common database schema Core Architecture Data Model 2.0 and the DoD Architecture Registry System (DARS).
As an example, the BIAN Metamodel is closely aligned to, and draws on parts of, the ISO20022 Meta Model for many of the detailed definitional aspects. These working partnerships mark a big step forward in BIAN’s commitment to complimentary standards collaboration. The TOGAF standard and the BIAN standard are mapped to each other.
Examples of implementing frameworks include Glassfish and Wildfly. The IBM Insurance Application Architecture [ 3 ] is a reference architecture for the Insurance domain. AUTOSAR is a component-based reference architecture for safety-critical and automotive software Automative Open System Architecture .
According to Forrester Research, solution architecture is one of the key components by which Enterprise Architecture delivers value to the organization. It entails artifacts such as a solution business context, a solution vision and requirements, solution options (e.g. through RFIs, RFPs or prototype development) and an agreed optimal solution with build and implementation plans ("road-map").
The 4+1 view model is generic and is not restricted to any notation, tool or design method. Quoting Kruchten, The “4+1” view model is rather “generic”: other notations and tools can be used, other design methods can be used, especially for the logical and process decompositions, but we have indicated the ones we have used with success.
