TOGAF defines 'architecture' as 'a formal description of a system, or a detailed plan of the system at component level to guide its implementation'. This definition aligns with standard architectural terminology, which typically describes the high-level structure and guiding principles for software and systems design.
1. What is an architecture? . . . “Architecture” has two meanings depending upon its contextual usage: A formal description of a system, or a detailed plan of the system at component level to guide its implementation. The structure of components, their interrelationships, and the principles and guidelines governing their design http://www.opengroup.org/public/arch/p1/togaf_faq.htm
Correct Answer ----> This question belongs to TOGAF 9.1 As per TOGAF 9.1 3.8 Architecture A formal description of a system, or a detailed plan of the system at component level, to guide its implementation (source: ISO/IEC 42010:2007). The structure of components, their inter-relationships, and the principles and guidelines governing their design and evolution over time. For TOGAF9.2 this is not relevant
As pert TOGAF9.2 .. definition is as follows , 3.7 Architecture The fundamental concepts or properties of a system in its environment embodied in its elements, relationships, and in the principles of its design and evolution. (Source: ISO/IEC/IEEE 42010:2011) The structure of components, their inter-relationships, and the principles and guidelines governing their design and evolution over time.
