Plan data for reuse
Design your data model to support scalability, interoperability, and future reuse across applications.
Why Plan for Data Reuse
Planning data structures early prevents duplication, reduces maintenance costs, and enables better reporting and integration across the ServiceNow platform.
Key Considerations
- Avoid creating individual or redundant data models.
- Use standard tables and fields wherever possible to maintain consistency.
- Normalize data to improve accuracy and simplify analytics.
- Ensure relationships between tables are well-defined for scalability.
