The document discusses the architecture for an adaptable enterprise software system using a case study of a Student Credit Reporting System (SCRS) forms application. It describes adopting a service-oriented architecture using Java EE and web services to develop a multi-tier system with components like a forms server, application server, and database. The system was designed to leverage open source technologies like JBoss and Apache Struts for standardization and extensibility of web applications.
