Ecosystem Architecture

One target picture of your IT, OT, data and AI landscape, so everything that follows is built to one design.

Ecosystem architecture diagram: industrial assets and data sources feed a central platform of AI and analytics, data platform, integration services, security and governance, and APIs and connectivity, which serve applications, users and a cloud and AI layer

Purpose &
Objective

Most industrial groups run dozens of platforms with no single picture of how they connect, so every new programme starts by rediscovering the landscape. This engagement assesses what you have, designs the target ecosystem that later platforms, models and controls are built into, and leaves a design authority (standards, decision records, design review) in place so it stays that way.

Scattered platforms converging through flowing data lines into one blueprint of the plant

Scope of
Service

  • 01

    Current-state assessment:

    IT/OT landscape, platforms, tools, integrations and data flows, mapped against ISA-95 / Purdue levels

  • 02

    Target ecosystem design:

    capability map, platform and integration architecture, built on the Osol Reference Architecture

  • 03

    Where it runs:

    your cloud tenant, on-premises or hybrid. Osol never hosts your data

  • 04

    Platform & tool rationalisation:

    build / buy / partner decisions, with a transition roadmap

  • 05

    Architecture governance:

    standards, decision records and a design review for every later engagement

  • 06

    Out of scope:

    building the platforms, models or security controls (see Data Foundation, AI & ML, Cybersecurity)
