Draft skeleton — fill each section, then remove this note. Owner: architect.

Purpose & audience

Enterprise architects, security reviewers, and prospective design partners evaluating how AORBIT fits an existing estate.

The five-capability spine

For each capability: responsibility, interfaces, and what reads/writes it.
  1. Truth — the runtime CMDB/CSDM graph; the system-of-record every other capability reads from.
  2. Governance — policy envelopes, spend budgets, identity binding; enforcement at the checkpoint.
  3. Audit — the tamper-evident, cryptographically verifiable record.
  4. Payments — governed agent payments on national rails (mada · SADAD · Sarie).
  5. Inference — the private, in-tenant serving path; owning the path makes governance enforceable.

Layered architecture

Read top-to-bottom = outside-in. Build bottom-to-top = infrastructure first.

Deployment models

  • In-tenant / sovereign — full stack in-region under local data-residency (KSA profile).
  • Air-gapped — no internet egress; offline install and update path.
  • Alongside existing ITSM — interoperate, never rip-and-replace.

Cross-cutting concerns

Identity & agent identity binding · tenancy & isolation · encryption in transit/at rest · high availability & DR posture · upgrade philosophy (the architecture absorbs change).
