Design your data model to support scalability, interoperability, and future reuse across applications.

## Why Plan for Data Reuse {#plan-data-reuse__section_e3k_ckh_qhc}

Planning data structures early prevents duplication, reduces maintenance costs, and enables better reporting and integration across the ServiceNow platform.

## Key Considerations {#plan-data-reuse__section_i3f_2kh_qhc}

* 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.
