Return to Requirements

Statement

The Logical Architecture / PIM SHALL define one logical architecture and SHALL NOT imply that it represents every possible logical architecture that conforms to Part 1.

Source

Part 2, Section 16.2: Distributed Node-Based Architecture Requirements.

Rationale

Part 2 defines a single reusable Logical Architecture / PIM for the Financial Systems Archetype. Other logical architectures may also conform to the Part 1 Conceptual Architecture, but they are outside the scope of this document set. Stating this explicitly prevents readers from interpreting the architecture defined in Part 2 as the only permissible logical realization.

Applies To

This requirement applies to the definition, review, interpretation, maintenance, and use of the Logical Architecture / PIM.

It applies specifically to:

The scope of the Logical Architecture;Architectural interpretation;Domain Logical Profiles derived from Part 2; andImplementation Profiles based upon Part 2.

Verification

Verification SHALL confirm that Part 2 defines one Logical Architecture / PIM without claiming that it represents every possible logical architecture conforming to Part 1.

Verification activities should include review checks confirming that:

only one Logical Architecture is defined within Part 2;alternative logical architectures are not excluded by implication;the document consistently refers to the architecture defined in Part 2; andno normative statements claim exclusivity beyond the scope of this document.

Traceability

This requirement supports traceability between the Part 1 Conceptual Architecture and the Logical Architecture defined by Part 2.
