TOGAF, an Open Group Standard, is a proven enterprise architecture methodology and framework used by the world’s leading organizations to improve business efficiency.
It is the most prominent and reliable enterprise architecture standard, ensuring consistent standards, methods, and
communication among enterprise architecture professionals.
