##  Integrating TIME Classification with Pace Layering
Pace layering can also guide the implementation of the [TIME classification](https://help.sap.com/docs/leanix/ea/time?locale=en-US&state=PRODUCTION&version=CLOUD) (Tolerate, Invest, Migrate, Eliminate) by applying distinct criteria for each layer:
  * **Innovation** : Apply, experiment, and embrace the possibility of failure, resulting in fewer applications categorized as "Tolerate".
  * **Differentiation** : Ensure that enough applications are categorized as "Invest" to support differentiation efforts.
  * **Commodity** : Focus on stability, efficiency, and security.
