TOGAF 9 Foundation (Level 1) — Question 262

According to TOGAF, in which sequence should Application Architecture and Data Architecture be developed in Phase C?

Answer options

• A. Application Architecture should be developed first, then Data Architecture
• B. Application Architecture should be developed concurrently with Data Architecture
• C. Data Architecture should be developed first, then Application Architecture
• D. Application Architecture and Data Architecture may be developed in either sequence

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because TOGAF allows for flexibility in the development sequence of Application Architecture and Data Architecture. Options A and C imply a fixed order, which is not a requirement in TOGAF, while option B suggests they must be developed together, which is also not mandated.
