Chapter 4

The Repository and Governance

Abstract

This chapter deals with both the architecture repository and governance (parts V and VI and part VII of TOGAF, respectively). First, we specify the relationships between the architecture repository and the ADM cycle and the dynamic structure of its content. Second, we then deal with the governance of the architecture, which includes repository management and the organization of the monitoring and checking of architecture work.
