Architecture

This space holds technical depth: how the pod, events, graph, agents, and deployment fit together. Use Synap stays light (install, “what is it?”, guides); the long reads live here.

Who this is for

• Technical evaluators validating system design and trust boundaries
• Engineers implementing integrations or extensions safely
• Self-host operators planning deployment and operational posture

If you are evaluating Synap

• What is Synap? — product framing and pillars
• Architecture (system concepts) — system shape for technical buyers
• Data sovereignty — trust, boundaries, and ownership

If you are integrating

• API reference — Hub Protocol and REST surface
• Event catalog — event types and flows
• Integration fundamentals — webhooks, SDKs, and patterns

If you are self-hosting

• Deployment overview — environments and components
• Self-hosted data pod — run your own pod
• Pod replication & pairing — optional second pod / replica (event-log sync)
• API keys — authenticate automation and clients to your pod

Curated reads

• System concepts index — full library (events, graph, channels, AI, sovereignty)
• Event sourcing explained · Why events
• Hub and spoke · Composable architecture
