A structured library
Five connected parts of enterprise integration
Use the guide library as an architecture map. Start with the business flow, then select contracts and patterns, build operational controls and measure whether the whole process completes.
Patterns
Choose interaction and data-movement patterns that fit coupling, latency and failure needs.
Explore patterns →APIs and Contracts
Design stable interfaces, event contracts and compatibility practices for consumers.
Explore apis and contracts →Data Integration
Build pipelines, quality, governance, lineage and analytical delivery deliberately.
Explore data integration →Reliability and Delivery
Operate, secure, modernise and fund integrations across their full lifecycle.
Explore reliability and delivery →Core architecture guides
These pages establish the concepts that recur across application, data and event integration.
Integration Architecture
How to organise integration capabilities, boundaries, standards and runtime components across an enterprise.
Enterprise Integration Patterns
A practical map of common patterns for routing, transformation, messaging, orchestration and data movement.
API Integration Architecture
Designing APIs as managed interfaces with clear boundaries, contracts, consumers and operational responsibilities.
Event-Driven Architecture
How events represent meaningful state changes and allow producers and consumers to evolve independently.
Data Pipeline Architecture
How to structure ingestion, validation, transformation, storage, publication and operational recovery.
Integration Observability
Using logs, metrics, traces, business identifiers and reconciliation to understand distributed flows.
