[All OG0-092 Questions]

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 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.
  • B. 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.
  • C. 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.
  • D. 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.

Governance extension: 1 The ability to apply measures to objectives and then link those measures to services 2 The ability to apply contracts to service communication or service interactions with external users and systems 3 The ability to define re-usable service qualities defining a service-level profile that can be used in contracts 4 Creation of additional diagrams to show ownership and management of systems scenario requires "high-performance-criteria, in depth measures" (1) "high-performance/secure communications contract" (2) "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."

Selected Answer: D
Service Extension: https://pubs.opengroup.org/architecture/togaf9-doc/arch/index.html This extension should be used in the following situations: - When the business has a preset definition of its services that does not align well to technical and architectural needs - Where IT service is misaligned with business need, particularly around the areas of quality of service, visibility of performance, and management granularity The benefits of using this extension are as follows: -Business services can be defined outside of the constraints that exist in the core metamodel; this allows for a more natural engagement with business stakeholders. Although A seems plausible, I believe D is more correct. So it would be D=5 points and A=3 points. The hey point is: Focusing on these service-level details and specific measurements will allow stricter requirements to be enforced in service contracts.

Selected Answer: A
30.4.6 Motivation Extensions Purpose The motivation extension is intended to allow additional structured modeling of the drivers, goals, and objectives that influence an organization to provide business services to its customers. This in turn allows more effective definition of service contracts and better measurement of business performance.

A is correct. B & C are both is incorrect as stakeholder requirements are address before models are created. B is also incorrect as TOGAF does not recommend any particular software packages (e.g., ArchiMate)
