    Solution Designer

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

    Example architecture in Solution Designer.

    Solution Designer enables you to perform the following:

    • 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.
