Explanation

The rationale and implication in this combination are well-defined because they both support the principle of using packaged solutions in a standard way. The rationale explains the benefits of using packaged solutions, while the implication outlines the steps that need to be taken to ensure that packaged solutions are used in a standard way. According to the SAP Enterprise Architecture Framework, which is a methodology and toolset by the German multinational software company SAP that helps enterprise architects define and implement an architecture strategy for their organizations, a principle is a general rule or guideline that expresses a fundamental value or belief, and that guides the design and implementation of the architecture. A principle consists of four elements: a name, a statement, a rationale, and an implication. The name is a short and memorable label that summarizes the principle. The statement is a concise and precise description of the principle. The rationale is an explanation of why the principle is important and beneficial for the organization. The implication is a description of the consequences or impacts of applying or not applying the principle. Exam Questions, Study Guides, Practice Tests.
