Taking into account the theoretical and methodological basis of systems theory for the choice of architectural solutions for systems engineering research and in the design of information systems is a non-trivial approach to design because it goes against the established practice of functional design within the boundaries of the market conjuncture of hardware and software architecture means. It is proposed to consider the principles of systems theory application as an approach to science-based information system design through the relationship between systems theory and system monitoring. The study consistently implements the approach to the design of the monitoring system of the hardware-software complex of warehouse management based on the principles of structural analysis of systems. The approach was applied iteratively to all components of the designed system and in describing the order of their interaction in order to find an efficient and resource-saving architectural solution. This allowed me to design the architecture of the system monitoring service. The principles of structural analysis of systems are shown in describing the functionality of the service, implemented for the internal logic of the server. The process and results of this study represent a positive practice of an orderly and informed approach to designing IT solutions without the prevalence of random or opportunistic factors characterizing the external environment of the design process.56202556202528830225https://wseas.com/journals/systems/2025/a505102-015(2025).pdf10.37394/23202.2025.24.25https://wseas.com/journals/systems/2025/a505102-015(2025).pdfWiener N.
