“Fundamental concepts or properties
of a system in its environment
embodied in its elements,
relationships, and in the principles of
its design and evolution”

Why Practice Architecture?
Alignment -
Insight -
Quality -
7
Architecture aligns strategy to operations and business
demand to IT supply, ensuring that changes are in line with
strategy and goals
Architecture improves the quality of individual solutions,
simplifying their development and maintenance en
prolonging their life time
Architecture provides insight into the current and desired
state of the organization, information systems and
technology

Enterprise Architecture
Introducing TOGAF®
11

What is TOGAF®
?
• Framework for Enterprise Architecture (EA)
• Originally developed by the US government in
the 80s, now owned by the Open Group
• De facto EA standard in the market
• A description of processes, techniques and
products for EA
• A generic framework that can be tailored to
the situation
12

TOGAF Overview
13

The Architecture
Development Method
• The core of TOGAF
• A proven way of developing an
architecture
• Specifically designed to address
business requirements
• An iterative method
• A set of architecture views to ensure
that a complex set of requirements are
adequately addressed

Service Management
TOGAF®
& ITIL®
17

What Is ITIL?
• Information Technology Infrastructure Library
• Framework for IT service management
• Owned by the UK government (OGC)
• Meant to provide guidance to service providers
on the provision of quality IT services
• 26 processes, organized into 5 core books

19

How ITIL Relates To TOGAF
ITIL can be seen as an architecture for IT service
management
Both frameworks provide guidance for design
TOGAF describes design at an enterprise architecture level
ITIL describes design at a solution (architecture) level
An architecture developed with TOGAF requires input
from as well as provides input for ITIL processes
The repositories that support ITIL and TOGAF are
related and should build upon each other

Governance
TOGAF®
& COBIT®
25

What is COBIT?
• Framework for governance and management of
enterprise IT (COBIT 5)
– Meeting stakeholder needs
– Covering the Enterprise End-to-End
– Separating Governance From Management
• Umbrella framework
• Description of all IT-processes
• Driven by enterprise goals, and the IT-goals derived
from that
• Supported by extensive implementation guidance
• Owned by ISACA
26

COBIT Process Reference Model
27

How COBIT Relates To TOGAF
COBIT covers most of the activities of TOGAF
Describes them only at a high level
Provides a slightly different view on activities and deliverables
Covers only the IT-perspective; enterprise architecture also includes
the business perspective
COBIT adds information to the TOGAF activities
Relates them to generic IT-related goals and accompanying metrics
Adds architecture-specific process goals and accompanying metrics
Adds responsibilities for TOGAF activities in the form of a RACI Chart
COBIT puts TOGAF into context by relating architecture
processes to all other IT-processes

Project Management
TOGAF®
& PMBOK®
34

What Is PMBOK?
• Project Management Body of Knowledge
• A set of terminology and guidelines for project
management
• The Guide to the Project Management Body of
Knowledge contains a subset that is generally
recognized as a good practice
• Describes inputs, inputs, tools and techniques
• Owned by the Project Management Institute
• Grouped into 5 process groups and 9 knowledge areas
35

PMBOK processes
36

How PMBOK Relates To TOGAF
Both frameworks provide activities, practices and deliverables for
project management
PMBOK can be used to manage an architecture project
TOGAF can be used as a lightweight project management framework
(not recommeded)
An architecture constructed with TOGAF should drive the
definition of a project
Provides essential requirements to projects
Provides a scope to the project, expressed using models that are part
of the architecture
Project deliverables should be checked for compliance with
architectures that are constructed by TOGAF

Architecture Leads To Projects
Typical contents of an Implementation and Migration Plan are:
•Implementation and Migration Strategy
•Project and portfolio breakdown of implementation:
– Allocation of work packages to project and portfolio
– Capabilities delivered by projects
– Milestones and timing
– Work breakdown structure
– May include impact on existing portfolio, program, and projects
•Project charters (optional):
– Included work packages
– Business value
– Risk, issues, assumptions, dependencies
– Resource requirements and costs
– Benefits of migration, determined (including mapping to business requirements)
– Estimated costs of migration options
