abstract = {{SOLEIL Information System is a 20-year legacy with multiple software and IT solutions following constantly evolving business requirements. Lots of non-uniform and siloed information systems have been experienced increasing the IT complexity. The future of SOLEIL (SOLEIL II*) will be based on a new architecture embracing native support for continuous digital transformation and will enhance user experience. Redesigning an information system given synchrotron-based science challenges requires a homogeneous and flexible approach. A new organizational setup is starting with the implementation of a transversal architectural committee. Its missions will be to set the foundation of architecture design principles and to foster all projects’ teams to apply them. The committee will support the building of architectural specifications and will drive all architecture gate reviews. Interoperability is a key pillar for SOLEIL II. Therefore, a synchronous and asynchronous inter-processes communications is being built as a platform to connect existing systems and future ones; it is based both on an event broker and an API manager. An implementation has been developed to interconnect our existing operational tools (CMMS and our ITSM portal). Our current use case is a brand new application dedicated to samples’ lifecycle interconnected with various existing business applications. This paper will detail our holistic approach for addressing the future evolution of our information system, made mandatory given the new requirements from SOLEIL II. }},
