The Open Group OGEA-103 Practice Test 22
Question 210
An architect is asked to explain the following situation: A public agency must account for retention and disposal but its data models cover only storage schemas. Which underlying principle is most relevant?
- Architecture Change Management monitors change drivers and maintains architecture relevance over time.
- Data Architecture should represent how information is created, shared, maintained, retained, and disposed of.
- The Statement of Architecture Work records the agreed architecture engagement and authorizes detailed development.
- Value streams describe how an enterprise creates value for stakeholders and can expose cross-capability dependencies.
Explanation
Correct Answer
B:This principle addresses Phase C data lifecycle. The preferred action is: Model the data lifecycle and protection requirements within the target Data Architecture. Verify: Lifecycle controls align with information classes and applicable retention rules.
Incorrect Answers
A:The statement addresses Phase H change trigger. In the present case, a principle for Phase C data lifecycle is required: data Architecture should represent how information is created, shared, maintained, retained, and disposed of.
C:This is a legitimate concept for Phase A work authorization; it does not most directly account for A public agency must account for retention and disposal but its data models cover only storage schemas. The important distinction is that data Architecture should represent how information is created, shared, maintained, retained, and disposed of.
D:The statement addresses Phase B value streams. In the present case, a principle for Phase C data lifecycle is required: data Architecture should represent how information is created, shared, maintained, retained, and disposed of.
Question 211
Architecture acceptance review: A public agency must account for retention and disposal but its data models cover only storage schemas. Which evidence would BEST demonstrate that this concern was resolved?
- A dependency-aware roadmap places enabling work before dependent benefits.
- The engagement has an agreed problem statement, business drivers, boundaries, and sponsoring authority.
- Lifecycle controls align with information classes and applicable retention rules.
- Failure scenarios and recovery targets trace to resilient components and tests.
Explanation
Correct Answer
C:This checks the Phase C data lifecycle outcome. The related decision is: Model the data lifecycle and protection requirements within the target Data Architecture.
Incorrect Answers
A:This would provide assurance for Phase F benefit dependencies, not the stated issue. It does not show lifecycle controls align with information classes and applicable retention rules.
B:The observation could be valid elsewhere for Phase A request scope, but this case needs more direct Phase C data lifecycle evidence: lifecycle controls align with information classes and applicable retention rules.
D:This would provide assurance for Phase D resilience, not the stated issue. It does not show lifecycle controls align with information classes and applicable retention rules.
Question 212
A proposed decision is challenged in the following case: A public agency must account for retention and disposal but its data models cover only storage schemas. Which misleading belief must be rejected?
- Security architecture is only a concern of Phase H, after deployment.
- Every application always owns an independent copy of the authoritative enterprise data.
- Business roles can be reliably inferred from server naming conventions.
- Data retention obligations can be delegated entirely to network-topology diagrams.
Explanation
Correct Answer
D:This is precisely the false assumption to challenge for Phase C data lifecycle. The governing principle is: Data Architecture should represent how information is created, shared, maintained, retained, and disposed of.
Incorrect Answers
A:The shortcut would be dangerous for Phase D network trust; it is not the particular misconception driving the described Phase C data lifecycle situation.
B:This false belief is about Phase C data flow. The central misconception is that data retention obligations can be delegated entirely to network-topology diagrams.
C:This is also a risky claim, but it directly concerns Phase B stakeholder roles rather than the error in the current case: A public agency must account for retention and disposal but its data models cover only storage schemas.
Question 213
Consider this enterprise-change situation: A bank creates a target data lake without mapping data creation, use, archival, and regulatory destruction. What is the most appropriate architecture action?
- Model the data lifecycle and protection requirements within the target Data Architecture.
- Communicate the proposed Architecture Vision and business value with major outcomes and high-level capabilities.
- Establish relevant Baseline Business Architecture and compare it with the intended target business design.
- Identify required Transition Architectures and major work packages as intermediate, governed states.
Explanation
Correct Answer
A:This directly addresses Phase C data lifecycle. Data Architecture should represent how information is created, shared, maintained, retained, and disposed of. A useful acceptance check is: Lifecycle controls align with information classes and applicable retention rules. This matters here because a bank creates a target data lake without mapping data creation, use, archival, and regulatory destruction. What is….
Incorrect Answers
B:Although relevant to Phase A value proposition, this is not the most direct response to Phase C data lifecycle. For this decision, what matters is whether lifecycle controls align with information classes and applicable retention rules.
C:This action targets another architecture concern: Phase B business baseline. The priority here is Phase C data lifecycle in this situation; it leaves the specific acceptance result unaddressed: lifecycle controls align with information classes and applicable retention rules.
D:This proposal belongs primarily to Phase E transition states. It does not show that lifecycle controls align with information classes and applicable retention rules.
Question 214
During design review: A bank creates a target data lake without mapping data creation, use, archival, and regulatory destruction. What is the strongest architectural reasoning for the decision?
