Which of the following are the best architectural decisions for an extension application in S/4HANA?

• A. Use "Developer Extensibility for data-intensive ABAP extensions to S/4HANA./Use "Side-by-Side Extensibility on SAP BTP ABAP Environment" when additional SAP BTP services are intensively used and SAPUI5 user interfaces are required.
• B. Use "Developer Extensibility for ABAP extensions to S/4HANA that do not require a UI component./Use "Side-by-Side Extensibility on SAP BTP, ABAP Environment" for extensions that require a SAPUI5 based user interface.
• C. Use 'Developer Extensibility" for data-intensive ABAP extensions to S/4HANA./Use "Side-by-Side Extensibility on SAP BTP. ABAP Environment" for applications that are less data-intensive and SAP BTP services that are intensively used.

Why is it useful to create Transition Architectures in the Application Architecture domain?

• A. They structure complex application architectures that require multiple changes of existing interdependent applications and/or the rollout of new applications. Some applications/solutions depend on the existence of others.
• B. They structure complex application architectures that require multiple changes to existing independent applications and/or the rollout of new applications. Considered applications/solutions do NOT depend on the existence of others.
• C. They reduce the total number of solution components in the target state of complex application architectures that require multiple changes of existing applications and/or rollout of new applications. All applications/solutions do NOT depend on the existence of others.

Wanderlust's numbers for order booking have been on a free-fall, ever since a recent economic downturn reduced showroom footfall to near zero. To counter the drop in in-person bookings, the CEO and CIO have been looking to revive their online channel, which was started six years ago. However, this channel was seldom used before the pandemic, which has led to a complete breakdown of Wanderlust's online marketing business ecosystem. Also of major concern, is their existing Non-SAP Marketing application, which lays unused due to poor integration with SAP CRM. As Chief Enterprise Architect, you have been approached by the CEO to document the online marketing business ecosystem first. Which of the following actions would you do to meet your CEO's request? Note: There are 2 correct answers to this question

• A. Identify a suitable online marketing application that is better integrated with SAP CRM and ECC and can replace the existing one.
• B. Identify the key organizational units, partners, and stakeholder groups that make up the online marketing ecosystem.
• C. Draw an organization map highlighting the inter relationships and hierarchies amongst the above organizational units, partners, and stakeholder groups.
• D. Identify the online marketing business capabilities and processes.

As an Enterprise Architect, you must ensure that future extensions to the Digital Core of the enterprise guarantee stable and reliable operations. The architecture guideline demands to follow the clean-core strategy. What does this demand ensure and entail?

• A. Extensions may access SAP tables directly and in a well-documented, clean way. Therefore, the code of extensions can be adapted quickly to accommodate future changes.
• B. Extensions are kept strictly separate from the SAP application, Extensions are developed in accordance with the SAP Application Extension Methodology. Side-by-side extensibility options are always preferable to on-stack extensibility options.
• C. Extensions do not break an upgrade, and upgrades do not break an extension. Such extensions can access SAP business objects only through well defined, upgrade-stable interfaces.

As the Chief Enterprise Architect of your company you have been asked by the CIO to apply agile principles instead of following the sequential phases of TOGAFS ADM. How do you respond?

• A. The TOGAF ADM already embraces agile principles within and across phases and generally follows a cyclic approach. The SAP EA Framework builds on that and is especially suitable for organizations that follow agile principles.
• B. The SAP EA Framework combines the sequential approach of the TOGAF ADM with agile principles Agile principles are included and can be applied only to Application Architecture. Therefore, the SAP EA Framework is especially suitable for organizations that follow agile principles.
• C. It is reasonable to apply an agile methodology for the most urgent tasks and switch to the process as guided by the SAP EA Framework later, as long as the fundamental IT architecture is not affected Collecting "low-hanging fruit, and realizing instant value before using the SAP EA Framework, and ensuring an overall successful transformation is possible.
• D. It is essential to fully understand the business needs and to successfully review the business architecture with critical stakeholders before going to the next phase. In the implementation phase, agile approaches can naturally provide quick wins, constant progress, and the benefit of early validation. The phased approach, during architecture definition phases, avoids double work and will lead to overall better results.
