The Open Group OGBA-101 Exam - Topic 1 Question 23 Discussion

Actual exam question for The Open Group's OGBA-101 exam

Question #: 23
Topic #: 1

Consider the following modeling example, relating business capabilities to organization units so as to highlight duplication and redundancy:

(Note in this example the cells colored green, yellow, and red, are also marked G. Y, and R, respectively) Which of the following best describes this technique?

ARelationship Mapping

BCapability Mapping

CPerspective Analysis

DGap Analysis

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B

In the TOGAF ADM cycle, Phase A, the Architecture Vision phase, is where the architect would locate existing architecture descriptions to create an information map. This phase involves understanding the strategic context for the architecture work, defining the scope, identifying stakeholders, creating the Architecture Vision, and obtaining approvals to proceed with the work. Part of this involves reviewing existing documentation to understand the current state of the architecture and the information that is already available, which would be useful for creating an information map.

Definitely not Perspective Analysis, that’s a different thing!

I feel like perspective analysis was mentioned in our readings, but it doesn't seem to apply here.

I think it might be gap analysis since it highlights redundancies, but I’m not completely confident about that.

This looks similar to a practice question we did on relationship mapping, but I can't recall the specifics.

I remember we discussed capability mapping in class, but I'm not entirely sure if this example fits that definition.

I think this is a relationship mapping exercise. The diagram is showing the connections between the organization's capabilities and its units, which can help identify areas of duplication or inefficiency. I'll focus on understanding those relationships and how they're being represented.

I'm a bit confused by the question - it's not clear to me exactly what technique this diagram is representing. I'll need to review the options carefully and see if I can identify the best match based on the information provided.

This looks like a capability mapping exercise, where we're trying to identify duplication and redundancy in how the organization's capabilities are distributed across different units. I'll need to carefully analyze the color coding and the relationships between the capabilities and units.

Ah, this seems like a gap analysis exercise. The color coding is likely indicating areas where there are gaps or overlaps in capability coverage across the organization. I'll need to study the diagram closely to identify those gaps and redundancies.

Hmm, this seems like a tricky one. I'll need to think through the different scenarios where an administrator might enforce MFA.

Based on the troubleshooting guide reference, it seems like ensuring the zone members have different names could be the key. I'll carefully consider option D.

Basing performance evaluations on the number of projects completed - that doesn't sound like it would be part of a quality management program. I'm going to go with that as my answer.

Relationship Mapping, for sure. All those arrows and connections - it's like an organizational family tree.

Gap Analysis, definitely. The colors are highlighting areas where there's duplication or missing capabilities, right?

I'm not so sure. The different colors could also be used for a Perspective Analysis, showing how different parts of the organization view the same capabilities.

This looks like a classic Capability Mapping exercise to me. The different colored cells clearly indicate the organization's capabilities and where they are currently being handled.
