About This Architecture
Enterprise data landscape with nine siloed applications—ServiceDesk Pro, Asset Manager, Billing Engine, Risk Monitor, Compliance Tracker, Audit Logger, Project Tracker, Resource Planner, and Engagement Manager—each maintaining separate SQL databases across Managed Services, Assurance, and Consulting divisions. Data flows from external providers (Salesforce CRM, SAP ERP, Bloomberg Market Data) via API feeds into isolated application schemas, with minimal cross-silo integration except through three shared reference tables (Customers, Users, Products). This fragmented architecture creates data redundancy, inconsistent customer views, and complex dependency chains—exemplified by Legacy Billing v1 feeding through archive and historical databases. Fork this diagram to map your own data silos, identify consolidation opportunities, and plan a unified data platform strategy that breaks down organizational and technical barriers.
