According to TOGAF, when creating views for a particular architecture, what is the recommended first step?
When creating views for a particular architecture following TOGAF, the recommended first step is to refer to existing libraries of architecture viewpoints. This is because leveraging existing viewpoints helps in identifying reusable templates that address the concerns of various stakeholders, thereby streamlining the process of developing architectural views.
Correct Answer .. Seems from TOGAF8
ISO/IEC/IEEE 42010:2011 itself does not require any specific process for developing architecture viewpoints or creating views from them. Where ISO/IEC/IEEE 42010:2011 has been adopted and become well-established practice within an organization, it will often be possible to create the required views for a particular architecture by following these steps: Refer to an existing library of architecture viewpoints
31.2.2 Architecture View Creation Process steps: 1. Refer to an existing library of architecture viewpoints 2. Select the appropriate architecture viewpoints (based on the stakeholders and concerns that need to be covered by views) 3. Generate views of the system by using the selected architecture viewpoints as templates https://pubs.opengroup.org/architecture/togaf9-doc/arch/chap31.html
31.2.2 Architecture View Creation Process As mentioned above, the TOGAF framework encourages but does not mandate the use of ISO/IEC/IEEE 42010: 2011. The following description therefore covers both the situation where ISO/IEC/IEEE 42010: 2011 has been adopted and where it has not. ISO/IEC/IEEE 42010: 2011 itself does not require any specific process for developing architecture viewpoints or creating views from them. Where ISO/IEC/IEEE 42010: 2011 has been adopted and become well-established practice within an organization, it will often be possible to create the required views for a particular architecture by following these steps: 1. Refer to an existing library of architecture viewpoints 2. Select the appropriate architecture viewpoints (based on the stakeholders and concerns that need to be covered by views) 3.
