Design and Architecture

Integration Architecture

Interface contracts, patterns, error handling and monitoring designed before the first integration is built.

We design the failure path first, because that is what determines whether an integration estate is operable.

What you receive

  • Integration architecture and patterns
  • Interface catalogue with contracts
  • Error handling and retry design
  • Monitoring and alerting design
  • Reconciliation approach

Why organisations ask for it

Operable integrations

Failures visible and recoverable.

Consistent patterns

One approach applied across interfaces.

How the engagement runs

  1. Understand

    Requirements, constraints, existing estate and non-functional needs.

  2. Options

    Credible alternatives with trade-offs made explicit.

  3. Decide

    Recommendation with rationale, recorded as a decision record.

  4. Detail

    Component, data, integration and security design ready to build from.
