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

Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation From documents:

The Architecture Repository in TOGAF provides a structured model for storing architectural output. It contains six classes of architectural information:

Architecture Metamodel – defines the structure of architectural content and relationships.

Architecture Capability – contains parameters, structures, and processes supporting the governance of the repository and the Architecture Board.

Architecture Landscape – architectural views at different levels (Strategic, Segment, Capability).

Standards Information Base (SIB) – standards to guide architecture development and solution building.

Reference Library – reference materials such as patterns, templates, guidelines.

Governance Log – record of governance activity, compliance assessments, waivers, and approvals.

Focusing on Architecture Capability:

Defined by TOGAF as: “The parameters, structures, and processes that support governance of the Architecture Repository.”

It provides the framework for ensuring that the repository is managed, controlled, and aligned with the enterprise’s architecture governance practices.

It includes organizational roles, responsibilities, and processes that ensure architecture practices are sustainable and repeatable.

Why the other options are incorrect:

B. This describes the Architecture Metamodel, not Architecture Capability.

C. This describes the Governance Log, which holds the record of governance activity.

D. This describes the Reference Library, which contains patterns, templates, and guidelines.

The TOGAF Content Framework defines a set of artifacts, deliverables, catalogs, matrices, and diagrams and describes how they relate to one another (i.e. their relationships and interactions), forming a structure by which architecture work is documented and integrated across domain areas. It captures the information architecture of architecture deliverables. While the Content Framework is guided by the ADM, it is not rigidly locked to phases but rather describes the content and relationships independent of timing. Its focus is not on process or lifecycle management per se, but on how architectural information is structured, interconnected, and traceable. Thus the best summary is that it shows the detailed relationships and interactions between information entities (artifacts, models, and content elements) across architecture work.

The Implementation Governance Model is a framework that defines the roles, responsibilities, processes, and standards for governing the implementation of the target architecture. It ensures that a project transitioning into implementation also smoothly transitions into appropriate Architecture Governance, which is the practice of ensuring compliance with the enterprise architecture and its principles, standards, and goals. The Implementation Governance Model is part of the Implementation and Migration Plan, which is the output of Phase F: Migration Planning of the Architecture Development Method (ADM)12 References: 1: The TOGAF Standard, Version 9.2, Part II: Architecture Development Method (ADM), Chapter 21: Phase F: Migration Planning 2: The TOGAF Standard, Version 9.2, Part VI: Architecture Capability Framework, Chapter 50: Architecture Governance

In the TOGAF Standard, a well-defined architecture principle must meet several quality criteria, such as understandability, robustness, completeness, and consistency. The criterion most closely associated with a principle being definitive, precise, and reliable under complex decision-making conditions is Robustness. TOGAF describes robustness as the characteristic that ensures the principle provides clear guidance even when applied across a variety of scenarios, stakeholder viewpoints, and architectural complexities. A robust principle remains valid and usable regardless of changes in context or external pressures.

Where other criteria focus on different aspects—such as Stability (long-term applicability), Completeness (covering all necessary aspects of the principle’s intent), and Consistency (avoiding conflict with other principles)—it is Robustness that specifically ensures a principle is sufficiently strong and precise to support consistent decisions in complex environments. This means a robust principle minimizes ambiguity, avoids subjective interpretation, and provides architects with a dependable rule that can be repeatedly applied across multiple architecture domains and transformation projects. By being robust, a principle becomes a dependable instrument for governance and architectural alignment at the enterprise level.

“The Content Metamodel defines a formal structure for these terms to ensure consistency within the architecture description…” A metamodel used across the enterprise enables consistency and completeness checking of the architecture description against the defined structure. Open Group Publications

The following activities are part of Risk Management:

Initial risk assessment

Risk mitigation and residual risk assessment

Risk monitoring

Risk Management is the process of identifying, assessing, and responding to risks that may affect the achievement of the enterprise’s objectives. Risk Management involves balancing positive and negative outcomes resulting from the realization of either opportunities or threats. Reference: The TOGAF® Standard | The Open Group Website, Section 3.3.3 Risk Management.

Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation

Ensure that the business value and cost of work packages and Transition Architectures is understood by key stakeholders

This is the objective of Phase F: Migration Planning, where the Implementation and Migration Plan is developed, addressing costs, business value, and stakeholder concerns.

Ensure conformance with the Target Architecture by implementation projects

This is the focus of Phase G: Implementation Governance, which oversees implementation projects, ensuring they align with and conform to the Target Architecture through architecture contracts.

Ensure that the architecture development cycle is maintained

This belongs to Phase H: Architecture Change Management, which ensures the architecture remains relevant, and that the ADM cycle continues in response to new requirements and changes.

Ensure that the Architecture Governance Framework is executed

Also part of Phase H: Architecture Change Management, where governance is continuously applied to manage change effectively.

Correct Mapping

1 → F

2 → G

3 → H

4 → H

Which corresponds to Option A (1F – 2G – 3H – 4H).

Why the other options are incorrect

B. (1H – 2F – 3F – 4G): Incorrect assignment of phases; for example, conformance is not part of Phase F.

C. (1G – 2H – 3H – 4F): Misplaces objectives; conformance is not Phase H, and governance execution is not Phase F.

D. (1F – 2G – 3G – 4H): Incorrect because maintaining the ADM cycle (3) is not Phase G, but Phase H.
