This question's explanation and your answers so far.
問 27
Incorrectア
DOA (Data Oriented Approach) is a development technique that designs a system starting from the structure of the data handled in business operations. It is a design method focused on data, not a framework that depicts the ideal state of an entire company's business operations and information systems to achieve overall optimization.
- イ
正解 The correct answer is イ, “EA (Enterprise Architecture)”. EA is a method and framework that grasps the current state (As-Is) of a company's business operations and information systems, sets the target ideal state (To-Be), and, while closing the gap between the two, achieves optimization of the entire organization (overall optimization). The question's three requirements — “grasp the current state,” “set the ideal state,” and “achieve overall optimization” — correspond directly to the definition of EA, so イ is appropriate.
Incorrectウ
OOA (Object Oriented Analysis) is a development technique that analyzes a system by treating the target as a collection of objects, each bundling data and operations together. It is an analysis method for software development, not a framework aimed at optimizing the entire company.
Incorrectエ
SOA (Service Oriented Architecture) is a design philosophy that componentizes business functions into independent units called “services” and builds a system by combining them. It is an approach to flexible system construction, not the very method that achieves overall optimization by grasping the current state and setting the ideal state.
- EA (Enterprise Architecture) is a method and framework that contrasts the current state (As-Is) with the ideal state (To-Be) and reviews business operations and information systems as a whole to achieve optimization of the entire organization.
- Distinguish that DOA and OOA are system design/analysis techniques and SOA is a design philosophy for componentizing services, all of which differ in purpose from EA, whose main focus is “achieving overall optimization.”
