Aan ability that a business possesses to achieve a specific outcome

Ba description of the architectural approach to realize a particular business solution

Ca representation of an end-to-end collection of business activities

Da qualitative statement of intent that should be met by the business architecture

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: D

This answer is based on the definition of business capability mapping as ''a technique for the representation of an organization's business anchor model, independent of the organization's structure, processes, people, or domains'' . Business capability mapping identifies, categorizes, and decomposes the business capabilities required for the business to have the ability to deliver value to one or more stakeholders. The other options are not correct, as they do not match the description of the technique marked W.

Wait, are we really saying it’s just about abilities? Seems too simple.

I'm confused; I thought a business capability was more about intent, so D might be right? But I really need to think this through.

I feel like I've seen a question like this before, and it might have been about the overall activities, so C could be a contender too.

I remember something about capabilities being tied to outcomes, which makes me lean towards A as well.

I think a business capability is about what a business can do, so maybe it's A? But I'm not entirely sure.

I'm a bit confused by this question. The options seem similar, but I think option A captures the essence of what a business capability is - the core abilities that enable the business to function and achieve its goals.

Okay, let's see. A business capability is about the abilities and skills a business has, not just a description of the architecture or a statement of intent. I think option A is the best fit here.

Hmm, this is a tricky one. I'm not sure if I fully understand the difference between a business capability and the other options. I'll have to think this through carefully.

Alright, I've got it! Option D is the false statement. Deleting metadata for tables that don't exist in the physical library doesn't seem like a valid action for updating table metadata.

I was about to choose option C, but then I realized that's more of a business process than a capability. A business capability is the underlying ability, not the end-to-end activities.
