    <p>Honest answer: It sounds like you are either <strong>over-engineering</strong> this, or you are <strong>irresponsibly re-inventing</strong> the wheel. </p> <blockquote> <p>I want to build a loosely coupled and configurable architecture which can be reused.</p> </blockquote> <p>That's a lovely goal, but is it a requirement of this project? I'm guessing it's not a fundamental requirement, at most a <em>nice-to-have.</em> It seems that the business needs a dashboard with some exportable charts and reports, and you're proposing to build a platform. That's classic over-engineering.</p> <p>If you really need a reusable platform, it will take considerable effort and skills to build an intuitive, robust, secure, testable, configurable, maintainable reporting platform with sophisticated and trainable authoring tools. </p> <p>And even if you build a perfect platform, <em>you'll have a custom system that nobody else knows</em>. If you use an established BI/reporting platform, you can hire people who already know the technology or point people at reams of already existent training materials.</p> <p>In other words, it's going to be difficult and more expensive to build, which is bad, but also difficult and more expensive for the organization to use for years to come, which is worse. I routinely choose build over buy, but reporting is a known problem that has been solved well enough by commercial platforms. </p> <p>So, sure, that architecture sounds reasonable. And without knowing more about the requirements, it's impossible to judge: maybe you really do need to build this from scratch, but from your description "charting Application ( kinda Dashboard)", building a reporting platform sounds unnecessary, though perhaps quite fun. </p>

    1. COI'll tell you a bit more background; the application is extension of existing asp.net application ; and I found its quite a rework to do the enhancements. If it was hosted independently I can suggest some BI tool, the problem is that its hosted in IIS but consumed in Plumtree environment( Gatewayed / remote service); so buying a BI tool and then configuring it to be used in Plumtree environment would a complex task. I hope u got an idea of the environment here

    2. COTo make sure the my work would be simple in future I want to design good architecture and start incorporating the enhancements(mostly new requirments) and then slowly move the existing application into this architecture.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
