Which of the following answers best interprets the diagram?

AThe CMO is concerned with the driver Market Share.

BThe CMO is motivated by the driver Market Share.

CThe CMO has a requirement to increase Market Share.

DThe CMO has a goal related to Market Share

Suggested Answer: B

According to the ArchiMate 3.2 Specification1, a driver represents an external or internal condition that motivates an organization to define its goals and implement the changes necessary to achieve them. Drivers that are associated with a stakeholder are often called ''concerns'' of that stakeholder. A stakeholder represents the role of an individual, team, or organization (or classes thereof) that represents their interests in the outcome of the architecture. A motivation element is an element that represents the reasons for designing and implementing an architecture, such as stakeholders, drivers, goals, principles, requirements, or value. A motivation element is denoted by a hexagonal shape.

The diagram below shows a motivation element (driver) named Market Share that influences a stakeholder named CMO. The influence relationship is denoted by a dashed line with an open arrowhead.

The influence relationship means that the driver affects the stakeholder's interests or concerns. Therefore, the best interpretation of the diagram is that the CMO is motivated by the driver Market Share.

Option C seems too strong; a requirement feels different from a goal.

Wait, are we sure the CMO is actually concerned about Market Share?

Isn't it more about motivation than just a goal?

I feel like the CMO definitely has a goal related to Market Share, but I wonder if "requirement" is too strong of a word in option C.

Justine 12 months ago

I'm a bit uncertain about the difference between "concerned" and "motivated." Does that change the meaning of the answers?

I remember a practice question that discussed goals and motivations. I feel like option D might be the strongest choice here.

I think the CMO's focus on Market Share could imply a requirement, but I'm not entirely sure if that's the best interpretation.

This is a good test of my understanding of SLAs. I'll make sure to read through the options closely and pick the one that covers the most important metrics for monitoring the data center's performance.

I'm a bit confused by the wording of the question. What exactly do they mean by "independently placed at line n1"? I'll need to make sure I understand that before I can select the right options.
