McKinley Rockets is an enterprise that employs 20,000 men and women in five countries: UK, Italy,
France, Spain and the Netherlands and its mission is to guarantee access to space offering space
transportation, launch and management of satellite systems at low cost.
A TOGAF 9 mature Enterprise Architecture program is already established within the enterprise.
McKinley Rockets strategy is to leverage in the USA shortage of satellite launches availability – that
NASA created because of the Shuttle program shutdown – by acquiring an important merican space
agency. This will ultimately allow McKinley Rockets to offer its services to the US market. The new
acquired company NovaSpace is very successful but with outdated satellite monitoring systems. The
CIO is sponsoring an activity to extend the McKinley Rockets’ satellite monitoring applications to
include the NovaSpace’s satellites flock.
A task force of enterprise architects prepared an Architecture Vision and secured the approval. The
Architecture Board decided to approve the vision, provided that the Design Definition Document is
presented
for review at phase D conclusion.
Refer to the scenario above
The Chief Architect asked you as Lead Integration Architect to use TOGAF 9 to recommend the best
approach to design the Full Architecture and present it to the Architecture Board.
Identify the best answer accordingly to the TOGAF 9 guidelines?
Choose one of the following answers

A.
You start with the Business Architecture and then address Technology, Application and Data
domains. For every domain you select the relevant reference models, viewpoints, and tools. You
develop a Target and Baseline Architecture Descriptions. Then perform Gap Analysis, resolve impacts
across the Architecture Landscape and update the roadmap. Finally update the Architecture
Definition Document.

B.
You start with the Business Architecture and then address Data, Application and Technology
domains. You then Confirm management framework interactions for the Implementation and
Migration Plan, Prioritize the migration projects through the conduct of a cost/benefit assessment
and risk validation. Then perform Gap
Analysis and update the Architecture Definition Document.

C.
You start with the Business Architecture and then address Data, Application and Technology
domains. For every domain you select the relevant reference models, viewpoints, and tools. You
develop a Baseline and Target Architecture. Then perform Gap Analysis, assess the roadmap impacts
and finally update the Architecture Definition Document.

D.
You start with the Business Architecture and then address Data, Application and Technology
domains. For every domain you develop a Baseline and Target Architecture. Then perform Gap
Analysis and update the Architecture Definition Document.
