Architecture Development Method

Architecture Development Method (ADM) is a systematic approach for developing and managing enterprise architectures, typically associated with TOGAF (The Open Group Architecture Framework). It consists of phases, guidelines, and techniques for creating and evolving architecture artifacts.

ADM guides practitioners through a structured process, starting with understanding business requirements and culminating in the implementation of architecture solutions. It involves iterative cycles of architecture development, ensuring alignment with organizational goals, stakeholder needs, and emerging trends. Key phases include architecture vision, business architecture, information systems architecture, technology architecture, and opportunities for continuous improvement. ADM emphasizes stakeholder engagement, collaboration, and governance to facilitate decision-making and drive successful architecture outcomes.
