Architecture
How the four modules fit together, where they run, where data sits in each topology, and how a deployed instance is configured and versioned.
1.0Modules
How the modules fit together
Conduit resolves incoming submissions into typed records. Assay checks them, routing what it cannot settle to a review queue where a qualified person decides. Concordance retrieves and ranks across the checked records. Baseline sits underneath the other three as the measurement plane: it holds the frozen evaluation corpus and scores every proposed change before release, and it never touches a production record.
2.0Topologies
Deployment topologies
The preferred deployment runs every module inside the client environment. A hosted deployment exists as a negotiated exception, with its terms fixed in the agreement before any data moves.
| Topology | Where the modules run | Who holds the data | What crosses the boundary |
|---|---|---|---|
| Client environment | Inside your environment, against your storage, under your identity provider | You. Quantscope holds no client data and no encryption key | Nothing inbound. Software releases enter through your change control |
| Hosted (negotiated exception) | In an environment operated for the engagement | Defined in the agreement: region, retention and deletion are set before any data moves | Submissions in, records and findings out, as the data processing agreement defines |
3.0Versioning
Configuration and versioning
- Configuration as record
- Schemas, rule sets, thresholds and routing rules are versioned artefacts. A deployed instance is the sum of named versions, so what ran is a written answer.
- Release record
- Every release names the module versions, model identities and configuration versions it contains, with the Baseline scores that qualified it.
- Change control
- Changes enter a deployed instance through the change control agreed in the statement of work, with re-qualification triggered by the thresholds written there.
- Separation of instances
- A validated instance is separated from development. Nothing reaches it except through a release, and the audit trail records what arrived and when.
