Introduction
TOGAF 9.1 was released on the 1st of December 2011 without a lot of fanfare and almost did not make a ripple on the social media sphere (just the normal set of insiders tweeting and blogging about the new version). I personally believe the update from TOGAF 9 to 9.1 is going to have a significant impact on how Enterprise Architects will use the standard going forward. The reason for my belief is twofold; firstly the standard is now becoming more consistent and readable, and secondly the inclusion of up-todate and practical SOA content is exposing more mainstream architecture professionals to SOA techniques and best practices.
The other significant update that was made relates to the meta-model and artifacts described in the Architecture Content Framework. The Architecture Content Framework includes corrections to www.orbussoftware.com enquiries@orbussoftware.com +44 (0) 870 991 1851

meta-model diagrams (Chapter 34), and some of the artifacts have been renamed to better reflect their usage (Chapter 35). Finally the integration between the Architecture Content Framework andthe Architecture Development Method is further enhanced by listing the possible artifacts (viewpoints) for each phase in the description of that phase(Chapters 6-17) and not only in Chapter 35.
