Hi Goyal,
During my research came to know the below information from an article posted by Thomas Kaufmann as follows:
Why build Enterprise Class Structures?
- PRPC is enterprise software. Therefore, we must design applications with re-usability and scalability in mind.
- As an integral part of every PRPC application, the Enterprise Class Structure (ECS) design pattern is the basis for divisional and enterprise-wide reuse.
- PRPC offers both pattern inheritance and directed inheritance. This two mechanisms combined provide superior flexibility for reuse. The ECS leverages both mechanisms.
Why using the Best Practice Enterprise Class Structure?
-
Avoids name space collisions and allows Pega apps to co-exist with each other and with Pega and 3rd party frameworks.
-
Allows applications to integrate with legacy systems.
-
Enables you to harness the power of Pega by taking full advantage of specialization & reuse in your design.
-
Helps avoid costly re-factoring.
-
Is the class structure that the Application Accelerator generates.

Hi,
Here is the good article to understand EnterpriseClassStructure and its benefits

Hi,
Adding more points to Haritha's reply
The class hierarchy is an integral part of every application. Designing a scalable, extensible enterprise class structures from the beginning of your project helps avoid costly re-factoring. The enterprise class structure enables PRPC applications to co-exist with each other and with customer or Pega built frameworks.
The enterprise class structure is also the foundation for enterprise reuse. Asset reuse is integral to the long-term success of BPM within the organization and ultimately, the reusability requirements drive the selection of your class hierarchy design.
