System Overview
Comprehensive overview of the AINTECH platform architecture, core principles, and component interactions.
Overview
The AINTECH platform is built on a distributed microservices architecture designed for horizontal scalability, fault tolerance, and real-time processing. The system handles over 2.4M requests/day across 12 geographic regions with an average latency of 23ms.
Scalability
Every service is stateless and horizontally scalable. State is managed through distributed caches (Redis Cluster) and event-sourced databases (EventStoreDB). Auto-scaling policies trigger at 70% CPU utilization with a 30-second cooldown.
Fault Tolerance
Circuit breakers (Hystrix pattern) protect all inter-service calls. Each service maintains a local fallback cache updated every 60 seconds. The platform achieves 99.97% uptime over the last 12 months.
Components
Three primary components form the backbone: API Gateway (rate limiting, auth, routing), Service Mesh (mTLS, load balancing, tracing), and Event Bus (async messaging, CQRS, sagas).
