A financial services firm is documenting its strategy to enter the cryptocurrency market. The Chief Strategy Officer wants a model that clearly links the firm's new 'Digital Asset Management' capability to the specific resources required and the strategic goals it supports. Which combination of elements and relationships provides the most precise representation of this strategic intent?
Q2
A logistics company is modeling its package delivery process. A key part of the process is the 'Route Optimization' application service, which relies on a 'Live Traffic Data' technology service. The application service is used by the 'Dispatch' business process. How should the relationship between the 'Route Optimization' application service and the 'Live Traffic Data' technology service be modeled to show a direct dependency?
Q3Multiple answers
An architect is creating a view for a security auditor who is concerned with which application components handle Personally Identifiable Information (PII) and which infrastructure nodes host these components. The auditor needs to see the full chain from data to physical hardware. Which of the following ArchiMate elements must be included in the view to satisfy the auditor's request? (Select THREE)
Q4
True or False: In ArchiMate 3, a 'Value Stream' can be composed of 'Business Processes'.
Q5
**Company Background** A regional healthcare provider, HealthFirst, is undergoing a major digital transformation. Their goal is to create a unified 'Patient Portal' that integrates data from various legacy systems, including an Electronic Health Record (EHR) system, a Lab Results system, and a Billing system. The current architecture is a collection of siloed, on-premises applications with point-to-point integrations, leading to data inconsistencies and high maintenance costs. **Architectural Vision** The enterprise architecture team has defined a target architecture based on a service-oriented approach. The vision includes an 'Integration Hub' application component that will manage all data exchange between the legacy systems and the new Patient Portal. The portal itself will be a separate application component. A key principle is that the portal should never access the legacy systems directly. To ensure data consistency, all patient data will be accessed via a set of standardized 'Patient Data Services' exposed by the Integration Hub. **Problem Statement** The team needs to create a model that accurately depicts the relationship between the Patient Portal, the Integration Hub, and one of the legacy systems (e.g., the EHR system). The model must clearly show how the portal consumes services and how the integration hub interacts with the backend system, adhering to the architectural principle of no direct access. Which of the following models best represents the target architecture described?
Q6
A city is developing a 'Smart Traffic Management' system. The system uses sensors (modeled as Devices) to collect data, which is processed by an 'Analytics Engine' (modeled as a System Software). Both the sensors and the engine are deployed on physical servers (modeled as Nodes) located at traffic intersections. Which relationship should be used to model that the 'Analytics Engine' runs on the physical servers?
Q7
An organization is performing a gap analysis between their current (baseline) and target architectures for their CRM system. They have identified that the target architecture requires a 'Customer 360 View' capability that does not exist in the baseline. In the Implementation and Migration viewpoint, what element is specifically designed to represent this missing capability?
Q8
During a project to consolidate data centers, an architect needs to present a view to the Head of Infrastructure. This stakeholder is only concerned with the physical hardware, the network connections between them, and the system software (e.g., operating systems, hypervisors) running on that hardware. Which standard ArchiMate viewpoint is most suitable for this purpose?
Q9
An e-commerce company's 'Order Processing' application component is composed of two smaller components: 'Payment Gateway' and 'Inventory Check'. What is the correct way to model this hierarchical breakdown using ArchiMate relationships?
Q10
A project manager is assigned to the 'Launch New Mobile App' work package. This work package will produce the 'Mobile App v1.0' as a key outcome. How is this relationship between the project activity and its tangible result modeled?
