The notion of reference models and reference architectures are used pervasively in the architecture profession. However, in practice, there is often confusion when applying these concepts as to how they are different, yet related. The speaker will present industry standard best practices regarding how to use reference models for categorizing architecture content for different purposes (such as planning, lifecycle management, gap analysis and enterprise-wide alignment) and how they relate to architecture/solution building blocks (per TOGAF). The presentation continues with discussing how reference architectures are similarly used, but also how they can be used to represent architecture/design patterns and best practices.
