Course Description

Curriculum

Chapter 1 : WHAT IS TOGAF? 

1WHAT IS TOGAF?

  • TOGAF is developed and maintained by members of The Open Group, working within the Architecture Forum.
  • TOGAF is a framework for developing an enterprise architecture.
  • The main focus has been on quality improvements to ensure consistent use of terminology.
  • It may be used freely by any organization wishing to develop an enterprise architecture for use within that organization.
  • TOGAF an Open Group standard, is a proven enterprise architecture methodology and framework used by the world's leading organizations to improve business efficiency.
  • TOGAF helps practitioners avoid being locked into proprietary methods, utilize resources more efficiently and effectively, and realize a greater return on investment.
  • TOGAF is an industry-standard architecture framework that may be used freely by your organization to develop an information systems architecture.

Chapter 2 : BENEFIT OF TOGAF 

1BENEFIT OF TOGAF

  •     Any organization undertaking,or planning to undertake, the development and implementation of an enterprise architecture for the support  of business transformation will benefit  from use ofTOGAF.
  •     Organizations seeking Boundary less Information Flow can use TOGAF to define and implement the structures and processes to enable access to integrated information within and between  enterprises.
  •     Organizations that design and implement enterprise architectures using TOGAF are assured of a design and a procurement specification that can facilitate an open systems implementation,thus enabling  the benefits of open systems with reduced risk.
