What tools best support the DoD Architecture Framework (DoDAF) Version 2.0, including support for transfer of the architecture data in accordance with the DoDAF Meta Model (DM2) Physical Exchange Specification (PES)?
My initial research found that MagicDraw and Casewise claim support for version 2.0; and several other tools have support for earlier (or unspecified) DoDAF/MoDAF versions including Sparx Enterprise Architect, Troux, IDS Scheer ARIS, Artisan Studio and Rational System Architect.
Experiences with any enterprise architecture tools and DoDAF 2.0 would be appreciated. The immediate need is for Data and Information Viewpoint models (DIV-1, DIV-2/OV-7, DIV-3/SV-11), but models in the other Viewpoints will be developed.
As of May 2010, tool support for DoDAF 2.0 appears to be limited and UPDM 1.0 (DoDAF 1.5 / MODAF 1.2) is on track to become the DISR (DoD Information Technology Standards Registry) standard. UPDM 1.0 tool support is widespread (e.g. Sparx, Artisan, MagicDraw).
We have selected a tool that supports UPDM 1.0 for use now and will revisit DoDAF 2.0 later.
