# Simplifying your architecture Streambased simplifies your architecture in the following ways: * **Reducing the number of data systems** - Streambased provides analytical capabilities that would traditionally be handled by a separate analytics system from the operational system. * **Removing data pipelines** - the Streambased view approach negates the need for complex data pipeline creation, maintenance and evolution. * **Removing governance complexities** - Streambased applies the same governance controls employed in the operational realm to the analytical realm. This requires one set of governance policies and processes that applies to everyone. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
