Enterprise Resource Planning
Discussion: ERP Architectures
Enterprises are mostly comprised of many applications that are either custom-built, acquired from a third party, or are from a legacy system. You work for an organization that has a combination of all three of these applications. This obviously presents an integration challenge as you prepare to recommend an ERP architecture.
Discuss how you would analyze and provide a recommendation on the type of ERP architecture to use in your organization.
Discuss what is necessary for the ERP implementation to be successful and the different types of ERP architectures.
In response to your peers, explore the impact of service-oriented architecture, as well as other architectures, on ERP systems.
