TOGAF Tutorial: I've Downloaded TOGAF – Now What?
Objective of Meeting
This tutorial complemented, and gave a further level of detail
beyond, the Introduction to TOGAF tutorial. It was given by Sanda Morar, Senior Technical Architect with Infosys
Technologies Ltd.
Summary
The tutorial gave a case study of one architect's experience in
making the painful journey from literally "I've Downloaded TOGAF –
Now What?" to delivering a very successful customization of the
TOGAF framework for a big corporation.
Giving real-life examples from the author's own experience, it
covered topics such as:
- Why do we need to do each phase of the ADM? (What happens if I do it?
What happens if I don't do it?)
- How to relate the work products within and between the ADM phases
- How to create a TOGAF metamodel in two weeks
- How to extend the TOGAF framework; for example, to incorporating
SOA or security
Sanda's presentation is available here.
Outputs
Participants received an insight into the challenges and rewards
involved in making the journey from the first download of TOGAF to
putting it into practice effectively.
Next Steps
The tutorial was very well received, and will be repeated at future
Enterprise Architecture
Practitioners Conferences.
