►A customer initiative
►A framework, not an architecture
■ A generic framework for developing architectures to
meet different business needs
■ Not a “one-size-fits-all” architecture
►Originally based on TAFIM (U.S. DoD)
■ Business architecture
■ Data or information architecture
■ Application architecture TOGAF 8
■ Technology architecture “Enterprise Edition”
► Long-term:
■ An industry standard, generic enterprise architecture method….
■ ….usable in conjunction with frameworks having products
relevant / specific to particular sectors.
● Several frameworks have mindshare:
□ Zachman, Spewak, DoD Framework, FEAF, TEAF, …
● Almost all focus on products, not method
● TOGAF and…. (not TOGAF or….)
► Version 8:
■ An overall structure and core method for enterprise architecture
that can be filled out in future years.
