OG0-092 Exam Question 11

Scenario
Please read this scenario prior to answering the question
Your role is that of Lead Enterprise Architect within the staff headquarters of a large hotel chain. The chain
manages over 500 hotels across North America and Canada, with another 230 hotels internationally in the
United Kingdom, Europe, Australia and New Zealand. Unlike other hotel chains, which are often a mix of
company-owned and franchised units, each hotel in the chain is an independently owned and operated
franchise. Many of the hotels use the same internal IT systems that they used before they joined the franchise.
Until recently, the only requirement that has been placed on each hotel is that they use a standard financial
reporting system to report their financial results to the headquarters on a weekly basis.
The CEO of the chain has stated his concerns about the inefficiencies of the current approach and identified
the need to change. He has defined a new strategic vision that will enhance the business by providing its
franchisees new support services including worldwide reservations, global, national and regional marketing as
well as consolidated financials, logistics, and yield management. This strategy is part of the long-term
commitment to enhance the brand image and drive superior revenue for the chain. He has also stated that he
expects improved financial results by the end of the current fiscal year.
These changes will provide the chain with improved utilization of its capacity and more efficient operations. The
addition of a corporate-wide data warehouse will provide analytics that will enable the marketing group to
improve its ability to target advertising into key national and regional markets to improve yields.
The chain has a mature enterprise architecture practice based in its headquarters and uses TOGAF 9 as the
method and guiding framework. The CIO is the sponsor of the activity.
In planning this change, the Chief Architect engaged the services of a well-known consulting firm that
specializes in business strategy. An initial study has been conducted to identify the strategic changes needed
to implement the CEO's vision. This recently completed with approval of a strategic architecture encompassing
the entire chain, including detailed requirements and recommendations.
Based on the recommendations from the initial study, the chain has taken the decision to adopt a packaged
suite of integrated applications that is tailored to the needs of the hospitality industry.
Refer to the scenario
You have been asked by the Chief Architect to propose the best approach for architecture development to
realize the CEO's vision.
Based on TOGAF, which of the following is the best answer?

A.You propose that the team focus on defining the target architecture by going through the architecture
definition phases (B-D). This is because the initial study identified the need to change. This will ensure that
the change can be defined in a structured manner and address the requirements needed to realize the
vision.

B.You propose that the target architecture is defined first, followed by transition planning. This is because the
vision is well understood and the strategic architecture agreed. The target first approach will ensure that the
current problems and inefficiencies of the baseline architecture are not carried forward, and that the
proposed solution addresses the requirements identified in the initial study.

C.You propose that this engagement define the baseline Technology Architecture first in order to assess the
current infrastructure capacity and capability. Then the focus should be on transition planning and
architecture deployment. This will identify requirements to ensure that the projects are sequenced in an
optimal fashion so as to realize the vision.

D.You propose that the team focus on architecture definition, with a specific emphasis on understanding the
strategic change parameters of the business strategy. Once understood, the team will be in the best
position to identify the requirements, drivers, issues, and constraints for this engagement. You would
ensure that the target architecture addresses non-functional requirements so as to ensure the target
architecture is robust and secure.

architecture is defined first, followed by transition planning. This will ensure that the current inefficiencies of
the baseline architecture are not carried forward, and that the proposed solution addresses the
requirements identified in the initial architecture engagement.

B.You recommend that this engagement define the Technology Architecture first in order to assess the
current infrastructure capacity and capability. Then the focus should be on transition planning and
architecture deployment. This will identify requirements to ensure that the projects are sequenced in an
optimal fashion so as to realize the vision.

C.You recommend that the team focus on architecture definition, with a specific emphasis on understanding
the strategic change parameters of the business strategy. Once understood, the team will be in the best
position to identify the requirements, drivers, issues, and constraints for this engagement. You would
ensure that the target architecture addresses non-functional requirements so as to help forecast future
impacts.

D.Since the initial engagement has identified the need to change, you recommend that the team focus on
defining the target architecture by going through the architecture definition phases (B-D). This will ensure
that the change can be defined in a structured manner and address the requirements needed to realize the
vision.

OG0-092 Exam Question 14

Scenario: AutoComp Corporation
AutoComp Corporation produces components for the Car industry. Driven by the global financial downturn they are looking to reduce IT costs. They believe there is a cost saving opportunity within IT but this is not quantified in terms of potential savings nor is there agreed target architecture.
Final decisions on the solutions are not yet fully agreed. They have completed their Vision Phase and first pass of the three architecture definition phases and now they want to finalize and plan their solutions. You are the Chief Architect from a consulting organization brought into review the work to date by AutoComp Corporation and to make recommendations to the CIO and the board on this.
Which of the following answers best describes how TOGAF recommends in this context?

A.I would do a Consolidated Gap Analysis by considering then dependencies, then group and allocate the transitions. I would then look to produce artifacts that describe the recommended projects, the risk, issues and dependencies. This would also include transition architects to move us from current architecture to the recommended target architectures. I would present my recommendations to the board for agreement. Once this is done, I would update the architectures reflecting any changes resulting from the board discussion.

B.I would determine the business value of each solution, prioritize accordingly each set of solutions, conduct detailed Risk Assessment and Mitigation, do Compliance reviews and then implement the solutions. I would present my recommendations to the board for agreement. Once this is done, I would update the architectures reflecting any changes resulting from the board discussion.

C.I would look at the corporate culture and attitude to change, understand the constraints such as cost and the required time horizons. I would then look at the architecture work to ensure it is complete and seek to address any gaps. I would review the functional requirements and ensure there are complete interoperability requirements. I would then validate any dependencies and risks. Then formulate an implementation and migration strategy identifies major work packages and the transition architecture required. Finally, once agreement is reached with the board I will create project charters and re-factor any changes needed from the board discussion into the architecture.

D.I would after confirming Enterprise Change Attributes and constraints, do a Consolidated Gap Analysis then dependencies, then group and allocate the transitions. I would also assess Enterprise readiness and risks.
Then I would also assess the business value of the solutions, do risk analysis with mitigation and then schedule the work products.

OG0-092 Exam Question 15

You are working as a consultant to the Chief Architect at an intelligent and security organization responsible for securing government communications and information systems. These provide real-time, highly secure communication of voice, video, and message data to remove locations around the world. The agency has recently received information from intelligence sources that the current encryption protocols may no longer be secure. In response, a program is underway to upgrade the systems.
The agency has an established Enterprise Architecture (EA) capability based on the TOGAF standard. The Executive Director of the agency is the sponsor of the EA capability.
Since reliable, high-preformcane, and secure communications are essential to be preserving national security, the Executive Director has placed stringent requirements for the architecture of the upgraded systems. It must be able to provide assurance of the upgraded systems. It must be able to provide assurance and verification of specific performance measures on the key services that are most crucial for system operation. Focusing on these service-level details and specific measurements will allow stricter requirements to be enforced in service contracts. It will also provide a high degree of assurance that necessary performance is being delivered and that notifications will occur if any critical service fails to perform as required.
A portion of the program budget has been allocated to conduct a review of the EA. The scope of the review is to evaluate the processes, content, and governance of the EA capability to ensure that the higher target performance and service levels required by the upgraded system can be achieved.
The Chief Architect has noted that the core EA artifacts that have been in use are not able to describe these new capabilities. The artifacts do not have explicit provisions for defining the in-depth measurement requirements regarding specific services required for the system. She has learned that certain services within the current system have service measurement implemenations that match some of the new requirements, but they are only used in a few areas.
Recent EA efforts at another national agency have produced generalized high-performance communication system models to realize similar requirements in a critical defense system involving secure communications. It is possible that these models may be useful for the upgrade program.
[Note: You may need to refer to the Content Metamodel chapter, section 30.4 (located in Part IV) of the reference text in order to answer this question.] You have been asked to make recommendations for tailoring the Architecture Content Metamodel to accommodate the requirements of the upgraded system.
Based on the TOGAF Standard, Version 9.2, which of the following is the best answer?

A.You recommend all of the extensions be incorporated into the Architecture Content Metamodel. The full Content Metamodel will enable the EA team to capture and categorize all the important additional data neded to support the performance and measurement objectives linked to these artifacts. Once the new repository content has been implemented, on-demand queries can be used to generate a customized governance stakeholder view that isolated the artifacts and data needed to assess measurement for any particular service. If this view is found to be inadequate for the governance concerns, the servie models within those artifacts can be expanded.

B.You recommend that the motivation and governance extensions are incorporated into the Architecture Content Metamodel. Using these extensions will allow modeling the goals, objectives and drivers for the architecture, linking them to servive levels and more detailed governance models. This will also enable the ability to re-use existing profiles, customizing them for the various service contracts involved.

C.You recommend that the services extension be incorporated into the Architecture Content Metamodel.
By using this extension, the service model is no longer constrained by what is expected in typical business service defintions, allowing more flexibility for adding customized models to support the more stringent measurement requirements. The services extension can also be used to map terminology between the business services and the application components.

D.You recommend that a Communications Engineering view is created using the infrastructure consolidation extension from the Architecture Content Metamodel. This view will allow architects to align the needed performance measurement communications across the system. This will support the stringent performance measurements needed for the more detailed governance views required for the upgraded system, making the interfaces to the communication and network layer of the architecture highly visible at the application level.
