A modern approach to IT architecture
In times of digital transformation, IT architecture has to do far more than just get systems up and running. It is the nervous system of modern companies: It enables agility, innovation and growth. At DI Experts, we see IT architecture as a strategic element that seamlessly combines business objectives, technology, organization and governance.

Architecture as a strategic basis

Modern IT architecture creates a stable, scalable and secure technical foundation that continuously supports the company in its development. It serves as a bridge between technology and business strategy - with the clear aim of implementing innovations efficiently.

Without a binding architecture, silos, technical debt and permanent friction between business and IT arise. Instead, we at DI Experts rely on an architecture that is modular, adaptable and clearly structured - based on proven principles such as business-driven design, API-centricity and microservices.

Eight principles of modern architecture - in DI Experts style

1. business first

Every technical decision is made on the basis of clear business objectives - not for its own sake.

2. modular instead of monolithic

Architecture in clearly defined building blocks (e.g. microservices, APIs) - flexible, testable and maintainable.

3. cloud- and platform-ready

Cloud native, edge-capable and CI/CD-capable - so that you can act quickly and without stumbling blocks.

4. security & governance reliably integrated

Zero Trust principles, consistent authentication and authorization concept, compliance progress in daily operations.

5. data integration instead of data silos

Central data models, orchestrated data flows and API-first approaches ensure consistency and traceability.

6. automated & test-driven

CI/CD, automated tests and monitoring are integrated right from the start - so that quality and stability are not left to chance.

7. governance rounds off

Roles, standards, code guidelines, architecture board - we establish governance structures to suit the size and maturity of your company.

8. evolvability

Target architecture is a living model - constant reviews, adjustments and prospects for new tech trends such as AI, edge or data mesh.

Our approach at DI Experts

  1. Analysis phase - recording current systems, data flows and pain points.
  2. Goal definition - vision workshop: What should IT achieve, what level of maturity should be reached?
  3. Develop architecture model - blueprint with layers, services, data and security components.
  4. Roadmap & MVPs - Modular implementation plan with quick wins and integrative collaboration.
  5. Implementation & coaching - Architecture hands-on support with reviews, training, governance setups.
  6. Operation & further development - monitoring, backlog adjustment and constant quality control.
