Simplified Structure of ERP Systems
Before giving you an ERP technologies list, it is very important to understand the typical structure of ERP systems. In a real life, enterprise resource planning solutions consist of dozens of connected applications, databases, modules, APIs, etc. However, as any applications, they can be viewed as a structure built of the database, backend or server part and the frontend or the user interface:
where the data about the assets (like the number of products in the warehouse etc) is stored.
the engine that performs the operations in the system according to the users’ request, for example, making a request for the database to make a list of the products and goods on the particular warehouse and render it to the user.
the graphical interface that allows the users to communicate with the backend and to form the requests and then display the received information. This is the very simplified explanation of the ERP components from the software architecture perspective.
