Architecture package
Network, compute, and storage designs with diagrams, sizing, and service dependencies.
Service
Enterprise GIS Architecture
Design resilient ArcGIS Enterprise and cloud-native deployments that integrate securely with identity, data, and operational systems.
- Security-first designs mapped to CJIS, NERC CIP, and state standards
- Hybrid and cloud architectures engineered for availability and scale
- Integration blueprints for IAM, work management, and analytics platforms
Service quick facts
- Engagement length: 6–10 weeks
- Outputs: Architecture diagrams, runbooks, deployment plan
- Ideal for: Platform upgrades, cloud migrations, security remediation
Problem
Legacy GIS stacks struggle with uptime, integrations, and security expectations—creating risk for mission programs and data sharing.
Consulting Approach
We pair reference architectures with environment-specific testing to validate performance, failover, and compliance controls.
Week 1–2
Current-state review
Assess environments, network topology, security policies, and business criticality to set design criteria.
Week 3–4
Target architecture
Create detailed diagrams, sizing models, and availability patterns for on-premises, hybrid, or cloud-native footprints.
Week 5–6
Implementation plan
Document deployment sequencing, rollback plans, and security controls including patching cadence and access governance.
Week 7–10
Pilot & validation
Stand up pilot environments, execute failover drills, and tune performance before production cutover.
Deliverables
Engineering teams receive clear build artifacts and operating guidance.
Security & compliance matrix
Control mappings for encryption, logging, access, and change management aligned to your regulatory drivers.
Deployment runbook
Step-by-step installation, configuration, rollback, and monitoring instructions for operations teams.
Expected Outcomes
Clients leave with a secure, scalable GIS foundation and a confident path to production.
- Documented HA/DR patterns validated through drills
- Reduced security exceptions with clear control ownership
- Performance baselines and monitoring thresholds
- Integration pathways for identity, data pipelines, and analytics
Timeline
Architecture programs typically deliver within ten weeks; production support can extend through cutover.
