Exam OG0-093 topic 1 question 77 discussion

Selected Answer : C -------------------------------------- Foundation Architecture: -------------------------------------- A Foundation Architecture consists of generic components, inter-relationships, principles, and guidelines that provide a foundation on which more specific architectures can be built

The Architecture Continuum Foundation Architecture A Foundation Architecture is an architecture of building blocks and corresponding standards that supports all the common systems architectures and, therefore, the complete computing environment. For The Open Group, this Foundation Architecture is the Technical Reference Model (TRM) and Standards Information Base (SIB). The TOGAF ADM explains how to get from that Foundation Architecture to an enterprise-specific one. https://pubs.opengroup.org/architecture/togaf8-doc/arch/chap18.html#:~:text=A%20Foundation%20Architecture%20is%20an,Standards%20Information%20Base%20(SIB).

C. It contains building blocks and their corresponding standards

https://pubs.opengroup.org/architecture/togaf8-doc/arch/chap18.html A Foundation Architecture is an architecture of building blocks and corresponding standards that supports all the common systems architectures and, therefore, the complete computing environment. For The Open Group, this Foundation Architecture is the Technical Reference Model (TRM) and Standards Information Base (SIB). The TOGAF ADM explains how to get from that Foundation Architecture to an enterprise-specific one. The TOGAF TRM and SIB describe a fundamental architecture upon which other, more specific architectures can be based. The TOGAF Foundation Architecture contains many alternatives in each of the ABBs. Other characteristics of the TOGAF Foundation Architecture include the following: Reflects general computing requirements Reflects general building blocks Defines technology standards for implementing these building blocks Provides direction for products and services Reflects the function of a complete, robust computing environment that can be used as a foundation Provides open system standards, directions, and recommendations Reflects directions and strategies
