Overview

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.

Reference architecture library
