Solution Designer

Solution Designer is an interactive tool for creating architectural representations of solutions built using the Palantir platform. It includes representations for first-party and third-party integration points, links to platform resources, and on-demand access to documentation and best practices.

Solution Designer enables you to:

• Draw inspiration from a collection of industry and technical patterns.
• Create the solution architecture for your project with intuitive step-by-step guidance.
• Showcase and compare various architectural proposals to reach a consensus on build plans and strategies.
• Investigate new products and features to understand how they interact with the rest of the platform.
• Review and validate your architecture with AI-powered analysis and recommendations.
• Generate implementation plans using AI to accelerate solution development.

Use cases

Use Solution Designer to work through a variety of use cases, including the following:

• Platform discovery:
  • Learn about platform components and how they interact with each other.
  • Explore a curated library of industry and technical reference architectures that you can leverage for your specific use cases.
  • Use AIP Architect to generate workflow plans based on your requirements and receive AI-guided implementation recommendations.
• Solution architecture development:
  • Create diagrams from scratch by modifying reference patterns or importing existing resources.
  • Add comments or descriptions to each node and link in your workflow or use-case solution.
  • Build upon pre-existing solution diagrams within your organization.
  • Organize complex architectures with hierarchical grouping and nested structures.
• Architecture review and validation:
  • Use AIP Critic to review your diagram through an interactive AI conversation.
  • Receive suggestions for improvements, alternative approaches, and best practices.
  • Validate that your architecture aligns with Palantir platform capabilities and patterns.
  • Export implementation plans as PDF documents for documentation and knowledge sharing.
• Project collaboration and knowledge transfer:
  • Link architectural discussions to specific applications and code.
  • Use solution diagrams for onboarding new team members, documenting ongoing or existing work, sharing project updates, and more.
  • Export diagrams as images or JSON to share with stakeholders.
  • Load Data Lineage graphs to visualize existing data flows and enhance them with architectural context.
