Questions

  1. 1.

    In the TOGAF Enterprise Metamodel, which statement correctly describes the structural relationships linking a Business Service, a Business Process, a Business Interface, and a Business Contract?

    • A) A Business Interface executes the internal behavioral workflow of a Business Service, while a Business Process specifies the governing service-level agreements.
    • B) A Business Process exposes an entry point directly to external consumers through a Business Contract, superseding the architectural requirement for a Business Service.
    • C) A Business Contract executes the operational activities of a Business Interface, which then encapsulates the behavior delivered by a Business Process.
    • D) A Business Service is realized by one or more Business Processes, accessed by consumers through one or more Business Interfaces, and governed by a Business Contract.
  2. 2.

    In the TOGAF Enterprise Metamodel, which statement correctly describes the structural relationship between Data Entities, Logical Data Components, and Physical Data Components?

    • A) Data Entities directly instantiate Physical Data Components, while Logical Data Components represent the operational business services that govern data access.
    • B) Logical Data Components encapsulate related Data Entities, while Physical Data Components provide the concrete technological realization of Logical Data Components.
    • C) Physical Data Components define abstract conceptual data models, while Logical Data Components map those concepts directly to underlying hardware infrastructure.
    • D) Data Entities are vendor-specific schema deployments that aggregate Logical Data Components into physical database storage partitions.
  3. 3.

    In the TOGAF Enterprise Metamodel, which statement correctly describes the relationship between a Technology Component, a Technology Service, and an Application Component?

    • A) An Application Component realizes a Technology Service, which in turn provisions a Technology Component.
    • B) A Technology Component directly orchestrates an Application Component without the mediation of a Technology Service.
    • C) A Technology Component realizes a Technology Service, which in turn supports an Application Component.
    • D) An Application Component encapsulates a Technology Component to deliver a Technology Service directly to business actors.
  4. 4.

    In the TOGAF Enterprise Metamodel, how is a Business Capability related to a Value Stream Stage?

    • A) A Business Capability enables a Value Stream Stage by providing the necessary capacity and resources required to achieve its specific value proposition.
    • B) A Business Capability decomposes a Value Stream Stage into chronologically ordered operational activities and task sequences.
    • C) A Business Capability governs a Value Stream Stage by defining the contractual service-level agreements and legal boundaries.
    • D) A Business Capability realizes a Value Stream Stage by directly executing the technical transactions of underlying application components.
  5. 5.

    When structuring architectural dependencies across the application and business layers in the TOGAF Enterprise Metamodel, which statement correctly describes the relationship linking an Application Component to a Business Process?

    • A) An Application Component directly executes a Business Process without requiring any intermediate service abstraction.
    • B) An Application Component realizes an Application Service, which in turn supports a Business Process.
    • C) An Application Component is assigned to an Actor, who subsequently governs the execution of a Business Process.
    • D) An Application Component encapsulates a Business Capability, which directly operationalizes a Business Process.
