TOGAF (The Open Group Architecture Framework) Architecture Development Method (ADM) is a framework and methodology designed for developing and managing enterprise architectures. It provides a structured approach for organizations to design, plan, implement, and govern their enterprise architecture.
The ADM consists of a cycle of phases that guide architects through the development of an architecture and ensure that all aspects of the enterprise are considered.
The ADM is iterative and allows for continuous refinement and optimization based on feedback and changing requirements. It emphasizes stakeholder involvement and alignment with business objectives, ensuring that the architecture supports the organization's strategy.
TOGAF ADM is widely used in various industries to streamline enterprise architecture processes, reduce risks, and enhance collaboration among stakeholders.
