What is Enterprise Architecture?
‘Enterprise architecture’ involves creating ‘architectures’ of IT infrastructures, including how they are put together and how different elements interact. This provides a clearer sense of perspective that organizations can use to align architectures with business goals.
This can be essential for supporting large-scale enterprise transformation, IT growth, and organization-wide change.
What is TOGAF?
‘The Open Group Architecture Framework’ is a leading enterprise architecture framework. It provides a systematic approach for designing, building, and adapting enterprise architectures – one that has been successfully applied across countless organizations and industries around the world.
What changed with the TOGAF Standard, 10th Edition?
Several changes were made for the TOGAF Standard, 10th Edition including: A modular structure that is easier to apply and adapt, a greater focus on Agile enterprise architecture, an expanded in-depth guidance with the TOGAF Series Guides, and an easier introduction for newcomers with the TOGAF Fundamental Content.

Enterprise architecture is becoming a much more common choice for maximizing efficiency and managing complex business strategies.

However, while any organization can use TOGAF, it takes a certified architect to apply and adapt it properly.
