Online DoDAF Training in US

The Department of Defense Architecture Framework (DoDAF) is an architecture framework for the United States Department of Defense that provides structure for addressing specific stakeholder concerns through viewpoints organized by various views.

DoDAF defines a set of views that serve as mechanisms for visualizing, understanding, and assimilating the broad scope and complexities of an architecture description through tabular, structural, behavioral, ontological, pictorial, temporal, or graphical means. These views are essential for ensuring clarity and alignment in the development and management processes for government projects.

It is particularly suited to large systems with complex integration and interoperability challenges, and uniquely includes operational views that detail the external customer's operating domain in which the developing system will function. This feature enhances the framework’s utility by providing a comprehensive understanding of the operational context for government initiatives.
