Simply put, this is our logical architecture or the ability to create a conceptual model of what the architecture needs to be and how it can address the requirements we defined in the previous step. Thus, we're putting on our creative hats and looking to define the end state solution without any limitations of technology placed upon our creativity. Of course, there are limitations that technology brings, but we'll deal with those within the next couple of steps. For our purposes now, let's define what concepts we need to achieve our end state. Logical architecture or, as covered in the previous video, defining what our end state solution should look like conceptually without the need of binding the so to specific technologies. Thus, while we would define the need for a database within the logical architecture, we would not define what database…
