System landscape

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

System landscape is a term used in information technology and describes the entirety of the applications used in a system environment , as well as all infrastructure components of a network , the data to be managed and the interfaces between the components.

The system landscape results from the historically grown, often heterogeneous IT infrastructure. In a company, many different application systems from different manufacturers can exist at the same time, such as B. a CRM system in sales, an ERP system in customer service or accounting software in the finance department with partially overlapping functions. This complexity can make flexible process optimization more expensive and create a need for cost-intensive and maintenance-intensive interfaces.
