Which of the following statements about asset-centric engineering is true?
A.
Project assets are maintained at each individual project level in an asset-centric engineering.
B.
Asset-centric engineering promotes an integrated asset management approach in which assets
are shared across the enterprise.
C.
Asset-centric engineering uses multiple enterprise repositories to store and maintain the assets.
D.
Asset-centric engineering requires that everything related to the assets,including metadata and
payload, should be stored in the same repository.
Explanation:
The underlying core principle of ORA Engineering is asset sharing and enterprise
development through an integrated asset management approach. Most organizations
use a Software Configuration Management (SCM) or Version Control System (VCS)
for managing the code and configuration assets. These tools are great for managing the
versioning of assets produced but they don’t maintain the metadata of the assets.
Without metadata assets are not organized in context and it is hard to discover them.
ORA recommends an asset-centric engineering process, where
an Asset Manager is used to address the challenges posed by the traditional
approaches. The Asset Manager is typically an enterprise-scoped Metadata Repository
working in concert with SCMs and other types of asset repositories.
