TOGAF 9 In Pictures

IntroductionTOGAF is an Architecture Framework which has been developed by the Open Group to provide the methods and tools for assisting in the acceptance, production, use and maintenance of an Enterprise Architecture.

This guide has been designed to give a quick and simple pictorial introduction to TOGAF9, broken down into 6 main modules, following the modular structure of TOGAF9, which has been a change from TOGAF8.
