Architecture & Technical Guidance
Every landscape decision compounds. We provide independent architecture advisory — platform selection, integration design, and extensibility strategy — grounded in delivery experience, not vendor incentives.
What This Discipline Covers
Architecture decisions are expensive to reverse. Choosing the wrong integration pattern, extending a core system the wrong way, or under-designing a connectivity layer shows up months later as rework, outages, or a landscape nobody wants to touch.
We provide the advisory layer that sits above individual service implementations: assessing what exists, recommending what fits, and documenting the reasoning so your team can defend and evolve the decision after we’re gone. Recommendations are technology-agnostic — shaped by your requirements and constraints, not by a preferred vendor relationship.
Landscape Assessment
Independent review of an existing SAP BTP, Azure, or hybrid landscape — identifying architectural debt, security gaps, and integration bottlenecks before they cause an incident.
Clean Core & Extensibility Strategy
Decisions on what belongs in-app versus side-by-side, grounded in upgrade-safety and long-term maintainability rather than short-term convenience.
Integration Pattern Selection
Choosing between synchronous, event-driven, and batch integration approaches based on data volume, latency requirements, and system coupling tolerance.
Identity & Access Architecture
Federation topology, role design, and authorization models across SAP, Azure, and third-party identity providers — designed to scale with your organization, not just your current headcount.
Technical Roadmaps
A sequenced, milestone-based roadmap that turns a target architecture into a set of engagements your team and stakeholders can actually plan around.
Architecture Decision Records
Every material decision documented with its reasoning and trade-offs, so the “why” survives staff turnover and doesn’t have to be reverse-engineered later.
How We Work
Discovery & Assessment
We review the current landscape, constraints, and business drivers — talking to the people who operate the systems, not just reading the diagrams.
Options & Trade-offs
Rather than a single “best practice” answer, we lay out the realistic options with their trade-offs, so the decision is yours to make with full information.
Recommendation & Roadmap
A concrete recommendation, documented with its reasoning, sequenced into a roadmap that fits your delivery capacity and timeline.
Delivery Oversight (Optional)
Where you want it, we stay engaged through implementation as the architecture owner — reviewing designs against the agreed direction as work progresses.
Need a second opinion on your architecture?
Let’s pressure-test the plan before you build it.
Whether it’s a single design review or an ongoing architecture advisory role, we’ll bring an independent, delivery-grounded perspective to your decision.
