Explanation

Gap Analysis is used to identify differences between the Baseline Architecture (current state) and the Target Architecture (desired state). The 'gaps' represent things that are missing, need to be added, changed, or removed. In the context of architecture domains (Business, Data, Application, Technology), this most accurately means identifying capabilities, components, or services that do not yet exist but need to be created. The technique produces a gap matrix comparing what exists now versus what is needed, which then drives the work packages and roadmap in Migration Planning. It does not primarily highlight stakeholder concerns, change impacts, available services, or viewpoints - those are addressed by other TOGAF techniques.
