[Plugin] LeanIX - Application Portfolio Management

Summary

LeanIX is a SaaS-based architecture tool that allows you to model your organizations landscape (people, process, technology) as fact-sheets (ie: applications, it components, business capabilities, user groups etc).

Each fact-sheet type has a series of metadata attributes you can capture, such as lifecycle milestones (phase in, phase out, retire), successors, predecessors and relationship between fact-sheets (ie: which applications depend on which it components)

The platform has a really rich set of APIs available (GraphQL or REST) to interface with.

Context

It would be really powerful to be able to link a backstage component to its corresponding LeanIX fact-sheet, so that different viewpoints (especially any relationships to other fact sheet types, or lifecycle statuses) could be displayed within Backstage automatically

@vincentbriglia Would love to see this opensourced. Maybe it is possible test this integration? Maybe helpful to you as well 😉
