Which Architecture domain is recommended to be the first architecture work undertaken in the ADM cycle?
Business Architecture is recommended to be the first architecture work undertaken in the ADM cycle. This is because a thorough understanding of the Business Architecture is a prerequisite for effectively understanding and developing the other domains such as Data, Application, and Technology Architecture. Business Architecture provides the context and requirements that shape and guide the work in these other areas.
