Explanation
A roadmap shows a planned path for projects or initiatives that aligns with the organization's architectural direction - it translates the architecture's long-term vision into a sequence of actionable steps, making D correct.
Why the distractors fail:
- A is backwards: requirements are often subjective (based on stakeholder needs), while viewpoints are structured perspectives used to communicate facts about a system - not the other way around.
- B is incorrect because a roadmap typically comes later, after the architectural blueprint has established direction; you need the destination before you can map the route.
- C is incorrect because an architectural blueprint tends to operate at a broader, more strategic scope - the roadmap narrows that down into a timeline of initiatives.
Memory tip: Think of the architectural blueprint as the destination and the roadmap as the GPS route - the roadmap must stay consistent with where the architecture says you're going, which is exactly what D describes.
