Enterprise Systems Development (UFCF85-30-3) Essay on TOGAF

This essay examines the application of the TOGAF (The Open Group Architecture Framework) framework in the development of an online movie ticket booking system. The essay begins with an introduction to IT architecture and the rationale for using TOGAF, a valued tool for constructing diverse IT architectures. It then outlines the evaluation criteria, including cost, performance, and capacity, demonstrating how TOGAF can improve these aspects. The evidence and analysis section includes a detailed requirements model with a use case diagram illustrating actors and use cases, followed by functional and non-functional requirements specifications. An architectural model is also presented. The essay concludes by summarizing the benefits of using TOGAF and its role in designing the online movie ticket booking system. References to supporting literature are also provided.

1. INTRODUCTION
The IT architecture delivers the essential technical foundation for the active strategy
of IT that is the main of any type of modern strategy of successful business. Generally, the IT
architecture describes the mechanisms or building the blocks which structures the entire
information system. For this project of online movie ticket booking system, here TOGAF that
is The Open Group Architecture Framework is used which is from the enterprise systems
modelling framework (Kotusev 2016). This TOGAF is the valued tool for constructing a wide
range of dissimilar architectures of IT. Also it permits user to design, estimate also build
appropriate architecture for the organization.
2. EVALUATION CRITERIA
For this project of online movie ticket booking system, TOGAF is used as the
architectural framework. By using this framework, many benefits are noticed in several
evaluation criteria such as cost, capabilities, performance, usability and many more.
Cost:
By using this framework TOGAF, the cost for this online ticket booking system are
reduced which is profitable for the organization (Jamshed and Afzal 2016). Also it increased
the consumer awareness of the commitment of the vendor to open this system.
Performance:
The central aim of this movie ticket booking system is to enable the students for
purchasing the movie tickets in advance before the show time through the internet when
this system still offer the consumers traditional purchase of the tickets on the time of entry
to this movie hall.
The second goal of this online movie ticket booking system is to enable the university
clubs for purchasing the blocks of the tickets at the discounted prices yet again in advance
through the internet (Agarwal and Dubey 2017). Also this system is permitted the university
clubs for making the payments on the account of the organization.
Capacity:
This proposed online movie ticket booking system supports booking of the movie
ticket of the 10 students at a time and also it should not disturb the performance of this
online movie ticket booking system.
3. EVIDENCE (WITH EXAMPLE ILLUSTRATIONS) AND ANALYSIS
For this proposed online movie ticket booking system, TOGAF architecture
framework is used. By this architecture framework, this system can easily design and
develop.
3.1. Requirements Model:
There are also the requirements model is present by which it can be described that
how this system works (Akinyede, Balogun and Iwasokun 2017). The use case diagram is
generally helps the user to design the system from the perspective of the end user. This is
the active method to communicate with the behaviour of the system in the terms of the
user by identifying all the behaviour of externally observable system (Eneh 2018).

The use case of this online movie ticket booking system is as follows:
Figure 1: Use case diagram of the system
(Source: Created by author)
From the above use case diagram it is cleared that in this online movie ticket booking
system, four actors are present, which are the Cinema Manager, Customer, Existing user
and New User (Tazin 2018). There are six use cases are resent which is associated with the
Cinema Manager which are Add film, Delete film, Update film, List of the registered user,
Income report and Login. On the other hand, seven use cases are present that are
associated with the Customer which are Select film, Select date, Select time, Select no of
Seats, Make Payment, Booked history and Login. Another actor the Existing user is
associated with Booked history use case and New user is associated with New user
registration use case.
3.2. Requirements specifications:
3.2.1. Functional Requirements
The new user register in this system to generate the credential for login. The
customer then login into this system. The authentication is done for the details of the login
credential. After that they can select the film name, date, show time and also select the no
of seats for booking for a specified film (Alam, Rouf and Heron 2019). After selecting all
these things, user make the payment through online. After that they can check the booked
history.
On the other hand, the cinema manager login in this system which is checked for the
authentication. After that the manager can add new film, update the existing film, delete
any film, check the list of the registered users also check the report of income.
3.2.2. Non-Functional Requirements

Reliability: The ability for maintaining the definite performance level is known as the
reliability. This system is web based which runs on any devices with any browser.
Availability: This system will available for the 24×7 time.
Security: The entire logic of the business is secreted from the users and also it is safe. It
avoids the illegal or unauthorized access or any corruption in the databases (Roy, Shahdeo
and Kaluri 2019). The information of the user is protected also in this system.
Maintainability: The maintenance of this is mainly done after completion of the system
development.
Portability: The portability means system can run in several environment. As this system is
developed on Java, so it is portable (Akinyede, Balogun and Iwasokun 2017).
3.3. Architectural Model
For this online movie ticket boking system, an architectural model is developed
which is described below:

4. CONCLUSIONS

From the above project, it can be concluded that to construct the online movie ticket
booking system, the famous architecture framework named TOGAF is used. This TOGAF that
is The Open Group Architecture Framework is used which is from the enterprise systems
modelling framework, is the valued tool for making a wide range of divergent architectures
of IT. Also it allows the user to design, estimate and also build suitable architecture for the
organization. For developing this system, first need to draw a use case diagram for
monitoring the performance of this system and the proposed architecture model that is
confirmed which way this system is designed and the hardware and software requirements
are also mentioned in this model. So, in this project, the process of the design of this online
movie ticket booking system is described.
