Architectural flexibility allows for changes and updates to the system without affecting the consistency of system data. When a system has architectural flexibility, it is designed to separate data storage and processing from the application logic. This means that changes to the application logic can be made without affecting the underlying data storage and processing.
For example, if a system needs to add a new feature or update an existing feature, the application logic can be modified without affecting the data in the database. This is because the data storage and processing logic are separated from the application logic.
Architectural flexibility also allows for multiple applications to access and manipulate the same data without causing inconsistencies. This is because the data access layer is designed to handle concurrent access to the database and ensure that changes made by one application are properly propagated to other applications.
Overall, architectural flexibility supports system data consistency by allowing for changes and updates to be made to the system without affecting the underlying data storage and processing, and by ensuring that multiple applications can access and manipulate the same data without causing inconsistencies.
