The Department of Defense Architecture Framework (DoDAF) serves as an architectural framework designed for the United States Department of Defense. It offers a structured approach to addressing specific stakeholder concerns through viewpoints, which are organized into various views.

DoDAF establishes a set of views that function as tools for visualizing, comprehending, and integrating the broad scope and complexity of an architecture description. These views utilize tabular, structural, behavioral, ontological, pictorial, temporal, or graphical methods to convey information.

This framework is particularly well-suited for large-scale systems characterized by complex integration and interoperability challenges. It stands out for its use of operational views, which detail the operating domain of the external customer within which the system being developed will function.

This course is designed for all professionals involved in planning, analysing, implementing, executing, maintaining, or enhancing Enterprise Architectures. It provides a comprehensive perspective on the tools utilised to describe and implement EA.

Objective

This training course aims to help attendees understand the most widely used Enterprise Architectures and the key principles to follow when constructing them, ensuring they achieve an appropriate architectural scenario for their organisation.

By selecting the right architecture layers, components, and establishing traceability links from the business layer to the technical layer, the resulting enterprise architecture framework enables effective impact analysis regarding business decision evolutions and anticipates changes in the corresponding information system components.

Combining lectures, demonstrations, and interactive labs, this course illustrates the foundational methods for establishing and maintaining an Enterprise Architecture (EA) through the use of the Unified Architecture Framework (UAF) version 1.2.
