This concerns the discovery of an integration landscape, which is mainly achieved in the Capture & Design phases from Integration Lifecycle Management.

We recommend filling out all documentation available in this phase, because this documentation can help to ensure smooth development by means of providing the context and other supporting information to the involved team members/stakeholders, so they can make better decisions when developing or maintaining the integration in the subsequent phases.

	58	+== 6. Key takeaways ==
59	59
60		-A data model is a visual representation of how a system has structured its data. With the help of a data model, you can show the relationships between entities and define the attributes on the entity level. See below for a small example of a data model.
	60	+* Discovery concerns the design of the integration landscape.
	61	+* An establishment of technical requirements is necessary before continuing with discovery in eMagiz.
	62	+* The Capture & Design phases are used to discover the integration landscape in eMagiz.

64		-As you can see above, we have several entities (i.e., Order, Invoice) related to each other in a certain way. Furthermore, we see that our entities are defined through the help of attributes. So, for example, our Order entity holds an ID, Date, and Description attribute. The data model also tells us the data types of the entity's attributes. Therefore the picture above tells us that the ID is represented as an integer, the Date is a DateTime, and the Description is defined as a String (Text).

66		-Lastly, data models provide information about the type of association between two entities. Within data models, there are three types of associations possible.
67	67
68		-* One-to-One
69		-* One-to-Many or Many-to-One
70		-* Many-to-Many
71		-
72		-Applying this knowledge to the example above teaches us that one Invoice contains multiple orders and that one Order contains multiple OrderLines. Furthermore, it tells us that each OrderLine only holds one Address reference.
73		-
74		-Now that we know what data models are in the conceptual sense, we will focus on how data models are used within each of the three integration patterns we support in eMagiz.
75		-
76		-=== 3.2 Data models in Messaging ===
77		-
78		-In the messaging pattern of eMagiz, we use a Canonical Data model (CDM). Canonical data models are a type of data model that aims to present data entities and relationships in the simplest possible form to integrate processes across various systems and databases. More often than not, the data exchanged across multiple systems rely on different languages, syntax, and protocols.

83		-
84		-=== 3.3 Data models in API Management ===
85		-
86		-As with every integration pattern, eMagiz gives you the option to create your data model. This data model can be based on standards (i.e., OTM5), custom-made, or a combination of both.
87		-For API, the data model represents the structure of messages that you want to publish to the outside (other parties or other internal systems) world.
88		-
89		-With the help of this data model, you can create a uniform layer through which you expose your data to the outside world. In terms of the API Management pattern, we extend this uniform layer to include not only the data model but also the security (i.e., OAuth 2.0 * Client Credentials) and the message format (JSON).

91		-An example of an API Data model in eMagiz is shown below.

98		-
99		-As with every integration pattern, eMagiz gives you the option to create your data model. This data model can be based on standards, custom-made, or a combination of both.
100		-For Event Streaming, the data model represents the structure of messages exchanged between parties with the help of topics.
101		-
102		-With the help of this data model, you can create a shared understanding between producers and consumers on topics of what kind of data is exchanged. This can help, especially the consumer, define what they can expect when consuming data and adapt their logic based on the provided information.

112		-== 4. Key takeaways ==
113		-
114		-* Data models define the structure of data related to a system or related to eMagiz itself
115		-* Within a data model, you model out the relationships between entities
116		-* Within a data model, you define all relevant attributes of an entity
117		-* eMagiz uses data models in each of the patterns to structure the data (flow)
