# Orama Network Architecture

## Overview

Orama Network is a high-performance API Gateway and Reverse Proxy designed for a decentralized ecosystem. It serves as a unified entry point that orchestrates traffic between clients and various backend services.

## Architecture Pattern

**Modular Gateway / Edge Proxy Architecture**

The system follows a clean, layered architecture with clear separation of concerns:

```go
import "github.com/DeBrosOfficial/network/pkg/client"

// Create client
cfg := client.DefaultClientConfig()
cfg.GatewayURL = "https://api.orama.network"
cfg.APIKey = "your-api-key"

c := client.NewNetworkClient(cfg)

// Use storage
resp, err := c.Storage().Upload(ctx, data, "file.txt")

// Use cache
err = c.Cache().Set(ctx, "key", value, 0)

// Query database
rows, err := c.Database().Query(ctx, "SELECT * FROM users")

// Publish message
err = c.PubSub().Publish(ctx, "chat", []byte("hello"))

// Deploy function
fn, err := c.Serverless().Deploy(ctx, def, wasmBytes)

// Invoke function
result, err := c.Serverless().Invoke(ctx, "function-name", input)
```

### 3. Database Layer (`pkg/rqlite/`)

    Where("age > ?", 18).
    OrderBy("name ASC").
    Limit(10).
    GetMany(ctx, &users)

// Repository pattern
type User struct {
    ID    int    `db:"id"`
    Name  string `db:"name"`
    Email string `db:"email"`
}

repo := client.Repository("users")

- JSON response writers
- Error handling
- Authentication extraction

**Error Handling (`pkg/errors/`):**
- Typed errors (ValidationError, NotFoundError, etc.)
- HTTP status code mapping
- Error wrapping with context
- Stack traces

**Contracts (`pkg/contracts/`):**
- Interface definitions for all services
- Enables dependency injection
- Clean abstractions

## Data Flow

### 1. HTTP Request Flow

```
Client Request
    ↓
[HTTPS Termination]
    ↓
[Authentication Middleware]
    ↓
[Route Handler]
    ↓
[Service Layer]
    ↓
[Backend Service] (RQLite/Olric/IPFS)
    ↓
[Response Formatting]
    ↓
Client Response
```

### 2. WebSocket Flow (Pub/Sub)

```
Client WebSocket Connect
    ↓
[Upgrade to WebSocket]
    ↓
[Authentication]
    ↓
[Subscribe to Topic]
    ↓
[LibP2P PubSub] ←→ [Local Subscribers]
    ↓
[Message Broadcasting]
    ↓
Client Receives Messages
```

### 3. Serverless Invocation Flow

```
Function Deployment:
    Upload WASM → Store in IPFS → Save Metadata (RQLite) → Compile Module

Function Invocation:
    Request → Load Metadata → Get WASM from IPFS →
    Execute in Sandbox → Return Result → Log Invocation
```

## Security Architecture

### Authentication Methods

1. **Wallet Signatures** (Ethereum-style)
   - Challenge/response flow
   - Nonce-based to prevent replay attacks
   - Issues JWT tokens after verification

2. **API Keys**
   - Long-lived credentials
   - Stored in RQLite
   - Namespace-scoped

3. **JWT Tokens**
   - Short-lived (15 min default)
   - Refresh token support
   - Claims-based authorization

### TLS/HTTPS

- Automatic ACME (Let's Encrypt) certificate management
- TLS 1.3 support
- HTTP/2 enabled
- Certificate caching

### Middleware Stack

1. **Logger** - Request/response logging
2. **CORS** - Cross-origin resource sharing
3. **Authentication** - JWT/API key validation
4. **Authorization** - Namespace access control
5. **Rate Limiting** - Per-client rate limits
6. **Error Handling** - Consistent error responses

## Scalability

### Horizontal Scaling

- **Gateway:** Stateless, can run multiple instances behind load balancer
- **RQLite:** Multi-node cluster with Raft consensus
- **IPFS:** Distributed storage across nodes
- **Olric:** Distributed cache with consistent hashing

### Caching Strategy

1. **WASM Module Cache** - Compiled modules cached in memory
2. **Olric Distributed Cache** - Shared cache across nodes
3. **Local Cache** - Per-gateway request caching

### High Availability

- **Database:** RQLite cluster with automatic leader election
- **Storage:** IPFS replication factor configurable
- **Cache:** Olric replication and eventual consistency
- **Gateway:** Stateless, multiple replicas supported

## Monitoring & Observability

### Health Checks

- `/health` - Liveness probe
- `/v1/status` - Detailed status with service checks

### Metrics

- Prometheus-compatible metrics endpoint
- Request counts, latencies, error rates
- Service-specific metrics (cache hit ratio, DB query times)

### Logging

- Structured logging (JSON format)
- Log levels: DEBUG, INFO, WARN, ERROR
- Correlation IDs for request tracing

## Development Patterns

### SOLID Principles

- **Single Responsibility:** Each handler/service has one focus
- **Open/Closed:** Interface-based design for extensibility
- **Liskov Substitution:** All implementations conform to contracts
- **Interface Segregation:** Small, focused interfaces
- **Dependency Inversion:** Depend on abstractions, not implementations

### Code Organization

- **Average file size:** ~150 lines
- **Package structure:** Domain-driven, feature-focused
- **Testing:** Unit tests for logic, E2E tests for integration
- **Documentation:** Godoc comments on all public APIs

## Deployment

### Development

```bash
make dev       # Start 5-node cluster
make stop      # Stop all services
make test      # Run unit tests
make test-e2e  # Run E2E tests
```

### Production

```bash
# First node (creates cluster)
sudo orama install --vps-ip <IP> --domain node1.example.com

# Additional nodes (join cluster)
sudo orama install --vps-ip <IP> --domain node2.example.com \
    --peers /dns4/node1.example.com/tcp/4001/p2p/<PEER_ID> \
    --join <node1-ip>:7002 \
    --cluster-secret <secret> \
    --swarm-key <key>
```

### Docker (Future)

Planned containerization with Docker Compose and Kubernetes support.

## Future Enhancements

1. **GraphQL Support** - GraphQL gateway alongside REST
2. **gRPC Support** - gRPC protocol support
3. **Event Sourcing** - Event-driven architecture
4. **Kubernetes Operator** - Native K8s deployment
5. **Observability** - OpenTelemetry integration
6. **Multi-tenancy** - Enhanced namespace isolation
