Exam OG0-093 topic 1 question 157 discussion

Explanation: The Standards Information Base (SIB) is a component of the TOGAF Architecture Repository. It serves as a repository area that contains the standards, specifications, and guidelines that architectures must comply with. These can include industry standards, organizational policies, and technical specifications. Reference: This is described in Part V, Chapter 37: Architecture Repository, in the TOGAF 9.2 standard. The SIB ensures consistency and adherence to agreed-upon standards across architecture efforts.

37. Architecture Repository 37.4 Standards Information Base 37.4.1 Overview The Standards Information Base provides a repository area to hold a set of specifications, to which architectures must conform. Establishment of a Standards Information Base provides an unambiguous basis for Architecture Governance because: The standards are easily accessible to projects and therefore the obligations of the project can be understood and planned for Standards are stated in a clear and unambiguous manner, so that compliance can be objectively assessed

C. lists the set of specifications to which architectures must conform

Correct Answer Reference : The Standards Information Base provides a repository area to hold a set of specifications, to which architectures must conform. Establishment of a Standards Information Base provides an unambiguous basis for Architecture Governance because: The standards are easily accessible to projects and therefore the obligations of the project can be understood and planned for Standards are stated in a clear and unambiguous manner, so that compliance can be objectively assessed

the SIB provides the architect with a gateway to a uniquely powerful set of tools for defining the standards that an architecture is to mandate, and for checking the availability in the market place of products guaranteed to conform to those standards. http://www.opengroup.org/public/arch/p3/sib/sib_intro.htm
